SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 26, 2011 /CNW/ - Biosign Technologies Inc. (TSXV: BIO) a medical device company focused on non-invasive, cloud-based vital health monitoring, will be offering a free non-invasive glucose testing demonstration during the Health 2.0 conference being held in San Francisco today and tomorrow.
"We are providing the opportunity for anyone attending Health 2.0 to take their own readings at a special station we setup for this purpose, although the device is not yet approved by the FDA for sale in the U.S.," said Dr. Scott Jenkins, CEO of Biosign Technologies. "Allowing people to see our UFIT® medical device work for themselves is the first step to getting this breakthrough technology into the hands of patients."
UFIT® combines the power of the cloud for validation and analysis with an easy to use wrist cuff for the pain-free non-invasive measurement of vital health information. Measuring both blood glucose and blood pressure from a single device makes this application unique. Biosign offers additional data analysis through our Cloud DxTM platform.
