WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
NeuroMetrix, Inc. (Nasdaq: NURO) today announced commercial launch of a
new Sport Electrode for its innovative Quell® Wearable Pain
Relief Technology™. The new electrode has a special hydrogel designed to
better hold up in situations with high humidity and perspiration. The
Sport Electrode absorbs less moisture, but is otherwise comparable to
the original Quell Electrode. It is available at QuellRelief.com.
"We want everyone who is using Quell for chronic pain relief to have the
best experience possible," said Frank McGillin, Senior Vice President
and General Manager, Consumer. "While the majority of Quell users will
experience optimal performance with the original electrode, we developed
the Sport Electrode in response to consumer feedback indicating the need
for another option for situations with high humidity and perspiration."
