This marks another milestone for the start-up, which has consistently made strides in the digital health sector, including securing substantial funding and collaborating on influential studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study, known as the Genetic and phenotypic determinants of blood pressure and other cardiovascular risk factors (<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/23299990\/\">GAPP<\/a>), is a comprehensive cohort study in the Principality of Liechtenstein. It involves over 2,000 participants monitored over a decade, aiming to unravel the intricate genetic and phenotypic factors impacting blood pressure and cardiovascular diseases. Aktiia\u2019s unique 24\/7 Blood Pressure monitoring technology will be pivotal in this research, offering insights into the longitudinal blood pressure patterns of participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The collaboration with Professors David Conen from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcmaster.ca\/\">McMaster University<\/a> and Lorenz Risch from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufl.li\/en\/university\">Private University of Liechtenstein<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.risch.ch\/fr\">Dr. Risch Laboratory<\/a>, underscores Aktiia\u2019s commitment to advancing healthcare through technological innovation. Their cuffless monitoring solution, capable of capturing an average of 27 blood pressure data points per day per participant, represents a transformative approach in understanding and managing blood pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aktiia\u2019s journey began with its foundational technology developed at the Swiss Center for Electronics and Microtechnology (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.csem.ch\/en\">CSEM<\/a>). Since its inception in 2018, the company has been at the forefront of revolutionizing blood pressure monitoring. Their approach to continuous and non-intrusive monitoring aligns with modern healthcare\u2019s shift towards more personalized, proactive, and patient-centric solutions. The device has gained traction across Europe, with ongoing efforts to expand into the US market following its CE Mark certification in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The inclusion of Aktiia\u2019s technology in the GAPP study is a testament to its potential in reshaping blood pressure research. This collaboration is poised to offer novel insights for blood pressure optimization, driving forward the agenda for more individualized healthcare strategies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Neuch\u00e2tel start-up Aktiia, a pioneer in cuffless blood pressure monitoring, has embarked on a groundbreaking study in
