NeuroMetrix, Inc. (Nasdaq: NURO) today reported that it will present two scientific posters at the upcoming PAINWeek national conference to be held in Las Vegas, NV, September 5-9.

Both studies leveraged the Quell® Health Cloud, which connects with the Quell wearable pain relief device and its companion smartphone app. The cloud database stores the user's demographic and clinical profile, health metrics including pain, sleep, activity and gait, and device utilization. The Quell Health Cloud has over thirty-five thousand registered Quell users and is rapidly becoming one of the largest chronic pain databases in the world.

The two scientific posters are titled "Ambulatory Stride Variability Measured by a Wearable Device is a Biomarker for Chronic Pain Severity” and “Self-Reported Weather Sensitivity Stratifies Subjects with Chronic Pain.” The complete abstracts can be accessed at: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/00325481.2017.1367065?needAccess=true.

"Chronic pain is a complex biopsychosocial condition that requires a customized treatment approach. Our vision is to leverage the unique data assets we are collecting in the Quell Health Cloud to deliver personalized pain relief for our customers," said Shai N. Gozani, M.D., Ph.D., President and CEO of NeuroMetrix. “We are particularly interested in how quantitative gait parameters can be used to optimize chronic pain management. In data to be presented at PAINWeek, we show that automatic Quell gait measurements are an objective biomarker for pain severity. Half of our users strongly believe that weather influences their chronic pain. In another study to be presented at PAINWeek, we show that Quell users with and without self-reported weather sensitivity have distinct demographic and clinical features. This is an important finding that will help us better understand the relationship between weather and chronic pain.”
