GOQii SugarWise is designed with the goal to empower users to take proactive measures to prevent or manage diabetes more effectively
GOQii announces the trial phase of ‘GOQii SugarWise’, its non-invasive innovative diabetic risk monitoring system. The trial of the innovative solution in early diabetes risk detection will be conducted in partnership with a Clinical Research Organisation (CRO) in order to validate its effectiveness.
GOQii SugarWise is designed with the goal to empower users to take proactive measures to prevent or manage diabetes more effectively. While it is not a replacement for traditional invasive blood glucose measuring devices, GOQii SugarWise serves as a valuable early risk assessment and screening tool. By promoting awareness and empowering individuals to adopt a healthier lifestyle, the technology aims to reduce the burden of diabetes globally.
SugarWise will be integrated within the Smart Vital 2.0 device. The Smart Vital 2.0 comes with ECG, body temperature, SpO2, heart rate, and fitness tracker. Sugarwise is a non-invasive method of getting an indication of whether sugar levels are in range, above range or below range.
In the event of a successful trial phase and the gathering of clinical results, GOQii plans to implement the SugarWise system on a wider scale.
Commenting on the announcement, Vishal Gondal, Founder and CEO, GOQii said, “We believe that our GOQii SugarWise system can revolutionize diabetes prevention and management. In collaboration with Clinical Research Organizations and leveraging our existing ecosystem of healthcare professionals, we aim to empower individuals to take control of their health and make a positive impact in the fight against diabetes.”
Rajshree Menon, Business Head-Healthcare, GOQii said, “With one in two adults being undiagnosed with diabetes in India, we urgently need more efficient and cost-effective methods of Diabetes detection. The convenience of having the non-invasive blood glucose monitoring technology on your wrist has the potential to be a game-changer for Diabetes detection in the country. This study will help us with valuable insights into the use of smartwatch-based monitoring systems and we look forward to advancing the field of diabetes management through our research”.
