Electronic Aspirin Market - Industry Insights, Trends, Opportunity Analysis, 201Posted by priya saraf on June 14th, 2019 13Frequent headaches in the changing lifestyle are a very common condition. Stress related to work has increased significantly in recent times. People have therefore resorted to self-medicate with a known analgesic brand. Aspirin is the most popular brand available for headache globally. Developed for headache and pain, Aspirin have extended indications now for heart attack and stroke. Moreover, it is estimated that nearly 700 to 1000 clinical trials are conducted every year for aspirin to find its additional usage. Request A Sample Copy: http://bit.ly/2ZjVejU The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that the prevalence of headache among adults is about 50%. Besides, migraine is the third most prevalent disease globally with nearly one billion population being affected (Migraine Research Foundation). Furthermore, more than 4 million people experience chronic daily migraine – with at least 15 migraine days per month. Medication overuse is the most common reason of episodic migraine turning into chronic. And most of the migraine sufferers do not seek medical help for their pain. Electronic Aspirin Technology Doctors have long associated the chronic forms of headache with the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG), a facial nerve bundle, but not yet found a treatment that works on the SPG long-term. The electronic aspirin technology blocks the SPG signals at the first sign of a headache. This technology is a patient-powered tool and is under investigation at Autonomic Technologies, Inc. In this technology, the device needs to be implanted permanently in the upper gum on the side of head normally affected by headache. The lead tip of the device connects with the SPG bundle. When a patient senses a headache, he/she places a handheld remote controller on the cheek nearest the implant. The resulting signals will trigger a slight electrical charge and stimulate the SPG nerves. The stimulated SPCG nerves will block the pain-causing neurotransmitters. The impulse will be so minor that the patient may feel it a little bit, but not painful or distressed. The patient can turn the device on or off when required. The implant works only when the remote is brought near it. Where is the potential? Electronic aspirin technology can be the preferred option in migraine patients and those who get frequent headaches. Being an implantable it could restrict its demand in people who do not seek medical help for headache or migraine, as observed in the emerging countries. Therefore, the electronic aspirin device could generate demand in the U.S., Canada and European markets where implants are not a new technology.
