With continuous monitoring and evaluation of diabetic risks, individuals can take proactive measures in making informed health decisions and positive lifestyle changes to reduce the risk of T2DM development. Marcus Soo, Chief Executive Officer of Actxa, said, “As a company with a vision to help people live healthier and longer with technology, we aspire to translate technological innovations into evident solutions that enhance lives. Collaborating with pioneering industry players like Umeox aligns with our vision. The fusion of their products with our BGEM™ solution holds the potential to empower more people to take proactive actions to prevent, delay the onset or even reverse the condition of diabetes. This strategic collaboration not only expedites the development, market accessibility and future commercialisation of BGEM™ but also tangibly contributes to building healthier individuals and communities. We look forward to a successful partnership with Umeox.” Jack Shao, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Umeox, said, “Over the course of 17 years, we have remained dedicated to empowering people to live healthier. Our products have consistently demonstrated their ability to enhance people’s overall well-being. We believe our latest smart ring model, X ring, has immense potential to positively transform preventive healthcare and empower individuals to take control of their well-being through continuous, unobtrusive health monitoring. Working in tandem with Actxa to integrate BGEM™ into our upcoming product releases enables us to address evolving consumer needs effectively. This strategic collaboration reflects the shared commitment of both companies to unlock new opportunities in the global preventive health market, and we hope this strategic collaboration will be a great start for the two parties’ long-term partnership.” BGEM™ has won Actxa an award under the AI – Healthcare Technology category in the annual SBR Technology Excellence Awards 2022, hosted by Singapore Business Review.

  • Actxa Launches All-New Sense 2 Smart Scale

    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 obese¹ as compared to 8.6% in 2017². Segmental analysis has been proven to be a valuable tool in monitoring disease progression and nutritional status in individuals with chronic injury or disease³. 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.

Through regular blood glucose monitoring, the increased risk for developing diabetes can be detected early. The launch of the Pre-M Diabetes™ allows individuals to monitor their blood glucose levels in a pain-free, easy and frequent way. The regular measurement of blood glucose will help individuals prevent, delay the onset or in some situations, even reverse the condition. Joel Chin, Actxa’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “This MOU builds on our existing strong partnership with JC, and we are honoured to collaborate with JC in launching and distributing the Pre-M Diabetes™ in China and the rest of the world. This strategic alliance leverages the strengths of both companies to create a significant impact in the global fight against diabetes.

Actxa is the first Singapore company to develop a comprehensive AI solution that leverages consumer-grade wearables to detect blood glucose dysregulation. The BGM is also the only non-invasive blood glucose detection solution to be going through a clinical validation study in Southeast Asia. The latest Singapore National Population Health Survey shows that 9.5% of adults have diabetes from 2019 to 2020. Nearly a quarter of them are newly diagnosed, whilst 26% exhibit poor glucose control¹. In 2017, the Singapore Ministry of Health launched a nationwide initiative to tackle the epidemic of diabetes, and advances in wearable technologies may be the key to alleviating this problem. As a company with a vision to be a leading preventive health technology company in the world, Actxa’s research and development (“R&D”) team began working on a novel digital monitoring technology in 2016, which was later coined as BGM. Its goal was to engineer a solution that is non-invasive, frequently and conveniently accessible, and low cost. The innovative non-invasive BGM solution detects glucose dysregulation in patients with diabetes or prediabetes. It leverages the latest technological advancement in signal processing, wearable technologies, and artificial intelligence (“AI”) to assess the risk of impaired glucose regulation. Using inter-beat-interval data from a consumer-grade wrist-worn photoplethysmography (“PPG”) sensor, the AI model will compute the relevant digital biomarkers correlated with the symptoms of prediabetes or Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and eventually predict the risk of developing diabetes. Joel Chin, Actxa’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “It is a great honour of Actxa to be a recipient of the SBR Technology Excellence Awards 2022. We want to thank the Singapore Business Review and the judges for recognising Actxa’s accomplishments. This is the best form of recognition for the R&D team who has been working on this project for the past five years. It is a testament of our commitment to being at the forefront of innovation, and we will continue doing so for the betterment of public health.” This technology is undergoing conducting a clinical validation study with a local hospital to improve the prediction model and evaluate the model’s real-world accuracy, reliability, and generalisability. The BGM will be available as a B2B cloud service with the production of at least one wearable product by quarter four of 2022.

  • Actxa & KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital Research Non-invasive Blood Glucose Monitor on Wearables

    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.
