“This should be welcome news for patient care teams because a greater prediction rate with fewer false alerts translates into more effective and efficient care,” said Corey Centen, founder, president, and chief technical officer at Bodyport. “What’s more, use of the Cardiac Scale and the Congestion Index is a seamless transition for clinicians and patients because it enhances, rather than replaces, the existing pathways built around weight monitoring. The lower alert rate should lead to workflow efficiencies because care teams—who are often feeling overly burdened by the large number of notifications and data flowing in—will spend less time responding to false alerts.”

The project, which was led by the University of Southern California, included large increases in representation among men of African, Hispanic and Asian ancestries, that were contributed in part by an ongoing collaboration between the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and DOE reports Argonne.

The company reports they have successfully met the six-month primary endpoint for the first-ever female patient implanted with the UroActive™ System, the first smart automated artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) to treat SUI.

AppliedVR Co-founder and President Josh Sackman, “We’re committed to developing a significant body of scientific evidence that demonstrates how our RelieVRx program, which is rooted in self-regulation, cognitive behavioral therapy skills and mindfulness, engages the brain and can impact the experience of pain. While we know there can be a strong placebo effect, this feasibility study showed that only the active RelieVRx treatment created changes at a physiological and brain activity level, creating a strong foundation for future research.”
