A local study shows that sensors commonly found in wearables can aid in the non-invasive detection of elevated blood glucose levels (Image source: Stock image) Singapore, 10 October 2024  – Imagine detecting the risk of diabetes with a wearable device, allowing for early intervention through positive lifestyle changes to delay or even prevent the development of this chronic disease.  Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a global non-communicable disease, with cases surging from 108 million in 1980 to 422 million in 2014[1]. Recognising the importance of early detection and intervention, Actxa Pte Ltd (Actxa) partnered with KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital (KKH) on a research study.   This study, “ Utility of photoplethysmography in detecting elevated blood glucose among non-diabetics” , recently published in the Singapore Medical Journal, shows that using photoplethysmography (PPG) signals (the green or red light on most wearables that measure heart rate), a non-invasive method of assessing T2DM risk, is a viable option to provide a more cost-effective and more accessible modality for screening in the community. The full study can be accessed here .      From October 2021 to February 2023, healthy volunteers were recruited at KKH. 483 volunteers’ capillary glucose levels were measured alongside PPG signals using Actxa’s Spark + Series 2 activity tracker and an in-ear wearable. The volunteers were evaluated over eight minutes to obtain accurate PPG readings.     Participants with capillary glucose levels of 11.1 mmol/dL or less consumed a standard glucose tolerance drink (TRUTOL. 75 g) and returned one hour later for a follow-up test. In contrast, those with readings exceeding 11.1 mmol/dL were exempted from the glucose tolerance drink. This methodology ensured the thorough evaluation of blood glucose levels, thereby enhancing the reliability of the study’s findings.    This research leverages the innovative use of PPG sensors to monitor and evaluate increased blood glucose levels non-invasively. The study has revealed that non-invasive diabetes risk assessment using PPG is a practical and cost-effective method for population-wide screening. This non-invasive nature of the PPG approach makes it accessible, encouraging early detection and allowing individuals to adopt timely positive lifestyle changes and seek medical interventions before more severe complications develop.    This study has also demonstrated the capabilities of Actxa’s BGEM technology , the world’s first non-invasive diabetes risk assessment powered by an AI-driven algorithm. BGEM is a cloud-based technology that can be seamlessly integrated into wearable devices with PPG sensors to assess diabetic risk.      As countries grapple with rising healthcare costs related to diabetes care, this technology can potentially reduce long-term healthcare burden by focusing on prevention. Early detection enables individuals to make lifestyle changes that can prevent or delay the onset of T2DM, ultimately leading to healthier populations and more sustainable healthcare systems.    Marcus Soo, Chief Executive Officer of Actxa, said , “In our pursuit of innovative solutions to address global health challenges, Actxa is proud that our technology has been validated through a local study. We are on track to reveal a transformative breakthrough in how we evaluate prediabetes and T2DM risk using PPG sensors.     Actxa’s BGEM technology, which integrates into wearables with PPG sensors, offers a cost-effective and scalable method for non-invasive blood glucose risk assessment, positioning us at the forefront of preventive health technology.     The opportunities here are paradigm-shifting—a wearable device on your wrist, finger, or ear could detect early diabetes risks, enabling individuals to make proactive lifestyle changes. This collaboration reflects our commitment to pushing preventive healthcare innovation, making early detection and prevention accessible for all. Together with our partners, we are charting the course towards a healthier future for individuals and our communities.”    Future developments will involve incorporating various non-invasive detection sensors to enhance sensitivity and specificity, enabling better management of T2DM through non-invasive methods alongside capillary glucose measurements.   Reference:   1.

Singapore, 17 October 2024  —Actxa Pte Ltd, a Singapore-based deep tech company, introduces its BGEM technology . Powered by a cloud-based AI-driven algorithm, BGEM offers a non-invasive solution to assess diabetic risk, marking a new approach to early intervention to delay or prevent the onset of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Diabetes: A Growing Concern In Singapore, it is projected that by 2050, at least 1 million people will be living with diabetes, with 1 out of 4 remaining undiagnosed¹. Globally, the number of diabetic individuals is expected to reach about 643 million by 2030, with 1 in 2 adults undiagnosed². Undiagnosed diabetes poses severe risks, as early-stage symptoms are often silent, leading to delayed diagnosis and potentially irreversible complications. Regular glucose monitoring is essential for detecting the risk of diabetes early, which enables timely and life-saving interventions. A Non-Invasive Approach to Assess Diabetic Risk BGEM leverages advanced photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors to offer a non-invasive solution . By integrating this technology into wearables, BGEM allows users to assess their diabetic risk regularly. This could support and promote early intervention, leading to better health outcomes while reducing long-term pain and cost for individuals.  A joint study by Actxa and KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital (“KKH”), titled   “Utility of photoplethysmography in detecting elevated blood glucose among non-diabetics” and published in the Singapore Medical Journal, validates the effectiveness of PPG sensors in its non-invasive blood glucose detection. The study highlights BGEM’s capabilities in integrating wearable devices with PPG sensors to assess for diabetic risk assessment . The full study can be accessed here .   BGEM leverages wearables with PPG sensors to collect essential data, in which an AI model computes the relevant digital biomarkers correlated with prediabetes or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) to assess diabetic risk to support early intervention.

Singapore, 10 April 2023 – Actxa, Singapore's deep tech company leveraging artificial intelligence to create preventive healthcare solutions, has launched the Sense 2 Smart Scale ("Sense 2"), a professional grade segmental body composition analyser. Building on the success of its first-generation Sense smart scale, Sense 2 is introduced with enhanced accuracy and more customised insights to provide segmental composition analysis reports to help individuals improve their health and fitness. From 2019 to 2020, 20.7% of Singaporeans were in the high-risk Body Mass Index category for the Asian population and about one in 10 Singaporeans (10.5%) aged 18 to 74 years old were obese ¹ as compared to 8.6% in 2017 ² . Segmental analysis has been proven to be a valuable tool in monitoring disease progression and nutritional status in individuals with chronic injury or disease ³ . Beyond assessing up to 11 essential body measurements, Sense 2 provides users with holistic body composition analysis reports with more than 20 body composition indicators, including weight, body fat percentage, visceral fat level, muscle mass percentage, bone mass and total body water. It also trends up to the last ten measurements, allowing users to monitor and track their weight, muscle mass and percentage body fat (PBF) changes. Whether you are looking to lose weight for better health, attain fitness goals, sustain your current form, or get an insight into your body, Sense 2 is your perfect choice with its clear and comprehensive view of positive or negative lifestyle information. You can see which body composition relates to your fitness and health progress – the body fat mass or a muscle build-up, and then restructure your lifestyle habits to achieve your desired goals. Designed to cater to all ages and lifestyles, Sense 2 can support multiple users, allowing families to achieve their health goals together. The smart scale is especially useful for families with a history of diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity, as family members can keep close tabs on their weight and body composition in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. For users enrolled in Journey with Wellness, a corporate wellness programme curated by Actxa Wellness, a subsidiary of Actxa, Actxa Sense 2 Smart Scale is explicitly designed to support you in this wellness journey. Paired seamlessly with the Actxa mobile app via Bluetooth, the Sense 2 automatically syncs all measurements to the app, allowing users to monitor and track their progress easily through the body analysis report. In just one step, you can make more informed decisions to achieve your health and fitness goals faster and more efficiently. Most importantly, health consciousness and being proactive about health are critical to preventing or delaying chronic disease onset. The accurate readings of the analysis report are obtained through dual-frequency Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) technology to provide a more precise body composition analysis than other scales using a single frequency. The technology is painless and safe, with a low-level electrical current sent through your body to analyse your body composition. Sense 2 also uses eight tactile electrodes to distinguish and measure a user's body in five segments (arms, trunk and legs) to deliver a more in-depth analysis report. Marcus Soo, Actxa's Chief Executive Officer, said, "Preventive health is a cornerstone in ensuring a healthier and better quality of life. It is also an important shift in Singapore's healthcare ecosystem. To support the nation's Healthier SG vision of promoting preventive care, we developed the Sense 2 as an affordable, easy-to-use and dependable healthy lifestyle companion to help everyone from all walks of life to monitor and better understand their bodies." Sense 2 is now available on Actxa's Lazada platform ( https://tinyurl.com/Sense-2 ) for SGD$150. The Actxa app can be downloaded on the Google Play Store and Apple Store.

For immediate release Singapore, 27 September 2021 – Actxa and KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital (KKH) are carrying out a clinical study to validate a non-invasive blood glucose predictive model on wearable devices with photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors developed by Actxa. The roles of wrist-worn and in-ear wearables with PPG sensors are constantly evolving. From being a lifestyle device that monitors sports and activities, to a device that monitors a person’s lifestyle well-being and health, foraying into preventive healthcare, particularly for the prevention of chronic diseases. Diabetes has been one of the “silent” chronic diseases, and research has shown that diabetic patients have a two to three-fold higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease. In Singapore and globally, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases are serious health concerns resulting in poor quality of life. Leveraging on its expertise and knowledge of wrist-worn and in-ear wearables, Actxa has developed a predictive model based on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AIML) for PPG sensors to monitor blood glucose level non-invasively. The collaboration with KKH will enable Actxa to externally validate the predictive model developed against an independent population, further improving the model’s diagnostic ability. Joel Chin, CEO of Actxa , said, “We are excited about this collaboration as the predictive model will be able to facilitate early detection and intervention of diabetes that will make a significant positive impact in the preventive health arena. It will also provide valuable insights into wearables’ potential in providing continuous and accurate real-time data that can aid patients, whose blood sugar is in the diabetes and pre-diabetes range, to self-manage their disease better and earlier.” Associate Professor Ang Seng Bin, Head and Senior Consultant, Family Medicine Service, KKH , who is also the principal investigator of this research at KKH, said, “As Singapore’s largest academic medical centre specialising in women’s and children’s health, KKH is committed to improving patient health outcomes. Through this new collaboration, we hope that we can harness the power of technology to make a difference in patients’ lives, especially those with diabetes.” This clinical study will be carried out jointly by the following Principal Investigators – Associate Professor Ang Seng Bin (KKH), Emeritus Professor Satvinder Singh Dhaliwal (Actxa) and Mr Shi Bohan (Actxa). Results and findings from this clinical study are to be published in the second half of 2022 in peer-reviewed scientific journals. Actxa will carry out more clinical trials in the near future to provide further clinical evidence for new products.
