Nemaura Medical Evaluates New Applications for Continuous Lactate Monitoring Using its BEAT™ Platform
July 14 2020 - 7:03AM
Business Wire
Nemaura Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ: NMRD) (“Nemaura” or the
“Company”), a medical technology company focused on developing
micro-systems-based wearable diagnostic devices and currently
commercializing sugarBEAT®, its non-invasive and flexible
continuous glucose monitor (“CGM”), together with BEAT™diabetes, a
planned health subscription service designed to help people with
Type 2 diabetes and prediabetes through personalized lifestyle
coaching, today issued a presentation outlining potential new
applications for monitoring disease progression in Covid-19
patients using Continuous Lactate Monitoring (CLM).
The Company has previously discussed the market for athletic
performance monitoring using its non-invasive continuous lactate
monitor (CLM), and based on recently published independent clinical
evaluations, the measurement of blood lactic acid has been
established as an indicator for disease progression in Covid-19
patients. The company has issued a presentation on this subject,

Both the CGM and CLM products are based on Nemaura’s BEAT™
platform, which is designed to non-invasively extract a number of
analytes through the skin. By adapting the sensor chemistry,
algorithm and mobile app interface initially developed for
sugarBEAT®, the BEAT™ platform has the potential to be utilized for
several markets beyond glucose monitoring and diabetes. Nemaura is
evaluating the timelines for bringing the CLM to market as a Class
2 approved Medical Device.
