Inaugural initiative of AARP and MedCity News
showcases companies and people delivering cutting-edge healthcare
solutions for the 50+ market
NeuroMetrix, Inc. (Nasdaq: NURO) announced today that it was
selected as one of the healthcare industry’s 50+ Innovation Leaders
under an AARP initiative administered by MedCity News to recognize
entrepreneurs, companies, and ideas behind innovative new products
and services for Americans aged 50 and older.
The winners of the inaugural 50+ Innovation Leaders program were
revealed today during the AARP Innovation@50+ LivePitch event by
representatives of MedCity News and AARP.
NeuroMetrix is applying neurotechnology to address the chronic
pain epidemic with a 100% drug free, wearable technology solution
called Quell®. The FDA cleared device works by stimulating the
sensory nerves in the upper calf, which carry neural pulses to the
brain, activating the body’s natural pain blockers. Quell was
designed to meet the needs of people with conditions like
arthritis, back pain, leg pain, and nerve pain, who are looking for
better options to manage their pain without side effects.
“Quell empowers those living with chronic pain to reclaim their
life through advanced technology. Being recognized as a 50+
Innovation Leader confirms that we are serving the chronic pain
community well, and will continue to provide innovative,
alternative options for treatment,” said Shai N. Gozani, M.D.,
Ph.D., President and CEO of NeuroMetrix. “We are always striving to
provide solutions for the over 100 million Americans feeling the
effects of chronic pain.”
“AARP works to empower people to choose how they live as they
age,” said Jeffrey Makowka, AARP’s Director of Market Innovation.
“We are pleased to join MedCity News in showcasing entrepreneurs
who are driving change and improvements in the healthcare industry
for the more than 100 million Americans aged 50 and older. We
congratulate the remarkable winners who have been recognized by
their peers for their innovation leadership.”
In late 2016, MedCity News and AARP issued a call for
nominations for entrepreneurs, investors, companies, and nonprofit
collaborations. Determined by a reader vote, the winners include
leaders and companies offering healthcare delivery, medication
management, and smart wearables.
