(Nasdaq: ECOR), a commercial-stage bioelectronic medicine and wellness company, announced today the publication of new clinical findings in JAMA Network Open titled, “Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation and Pain With Movement in People With Fibromyalgia: A Cluster Randomized Clinical Trial.” The study evaluated the use of a modified Quell device, an FDA-authorized nonpharmacological wearable stimulation device, when added to outpatient physical therapy (“PT”) for people with fibromyalgia. The trial enrolled 384 participants [that completed baseline data collection], including 191 individuals in the PT-Quell group and 193 individuals in the PT-only group. At day 60, reduction in movement-evoked pain was significantly greater in the PT-Quell group compared with the PT-only group, (between-group difference, −1.2 points [95% CI, −1.6 to −0.7]; P&lt;.001), and statistically significant improvements favoring the PT-Quell group were also observed across several other secondary measures, including resting pain, pain interference, movement-evoked fatigue, resting fatigue, and fibromyalgia impact (FIQR) during the randomized phase. The benefits of Quell were observed within 30 days and were sustained for up to six months. Among respondents, 81% reported finding Quell helpful, and 55% continued to use Quell daily. “Fibromyalgia represents a significant market opportunity, with conservative estimates suggesting that approximately 2% to 4% of the population is affected by the condition,” stated Peter Staats, MD, Chief Medical Officer at electroCore. “Quell is the first and only non-drug, FDA-cleared device indicated for fibromyalgia and the study results suggest that it may be a safe, inexpensive, and readily available treatment option for people living with the inflammatory condition.” The full article can be accessed here: <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=nB7FZ6tXljcvSyVd7TmFiVcrl1kaauVBlInA6FtUGZ_QHQteU0vULq22O4myyyX7QFB4OsdOQ6AB3EoK4aDYwxiiBflYsrgTUbQxEZ4eMaunsQSoK36OaCkwr1QbxDQS7gDwa2nuc5D79ik8WPYLQiG_CTx0aCZpFDQMJpeMgsZXx2QtTGLme9cUXFlHU2-tbFW4l-8Ywp3sq6MOUFDdA52Nm09zlH8cHmNlfvMu2vQ=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2847027</a> About electroCore, Inc. electroCore, Inc. is a bioelectronic technology company whose mission is to improve health and quality of life through innovative non-invasive bioelectronic technologies.
