About NeuroMetrix
NeuroMetrix is an innovative medical device company that develops and
markets home use and point-of-care devices, associated consumables, and
support software for the treatment and management of diabetes and its
complications. The company is focused on nerve related complications of
diabetes, called diabetic neuropathies, which affect over 50% of people
with diabetes. If left untreated, diabetic neuropathies trigger foot
ulcers that may require amputation, cause disabling pain, and increase
the risk of falling in the elderly. The annual cost of diabetic
neuropathies has been estimated at $14 billion in the United States. The
company’s products are used by physicians and other clinicians, in
retail health settings such as pharmacies, and by managed care
organizations to optimize patient care and reduce healthcare costs. The
company markets the NC-stat® DPNCheck™ device,
which is a rapid, accurate, and quantitative point-of-care test for
diabetic neuropathy. This product is used to detect diabetic neuropathy
at an early stage and to guide treatment. The company is in late stage
development of SENSUS™, a pain management device that will be
used to treat painful diabetic neuropathy, a form of chronic intractable
pain. Currently, painful diabetic neuropathy is treated
pharmacologically, which is a $2 billion annual market. The company has
additional therapeutic products in its pipeline. For more information,
