AmCad BioMed's Innovative Smart Sleep Detection System Targets Corporate Health Screening MarketJul 03, 2024

As the era of health and wellness dawns, with a focus on early screening and precision treatment, AmCad BioMed has proactively positioned itself ahead of the curve. Their non-overnight "Ultrasound Smart Sleep Detection" has not only been adopted by National Taiwan University Hospital's Health Management Center but also by key medical institutions such as Good Liver Clinic, China Medical University Hospital Health Examination Center, and Full Health Clinic. Additionally, Anker Biomed is partnering with major corporations to conduct employee health screenings, aggressively targeting both the general public and corporate health check markets.

AmCad BioMed’s General Manager, Yi-Li Lee, stated that the company has developed an all-inclusive sleep detection service model tailored for the vast corporate health check market. This model includes educational seminars by physicians, sleep detection services, analysis and report interpretation by specialist respiratory therapists, and trial use of CPAP devices from leading international manufacturers. The service has already helped numerous corporate groups, including Acer, AUO, Compal, YFY, and PSI, to complete sleep health checks, thereby fostering healthier workplaces.

In Taiwan, over a million people suffer from sleep apnea, with "Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)" being the most common form. If left untreated, OSA not only affects daily alertness and increases the risk of traffic accidents but also raises the likelihood of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, hyperglycemia, and heart disease.

Due to the inconvenience of traditional testing methods, statistics indicate that up to 75% of severe OSA patients remain undiagnosed. Moreover, the requirement for overnight testing has historically hindered the inclusion of sleep detection in health check programs.

Ms. Lee emphasized that the newly developed "Ultrasound Smart Sleep Detection," characterized by its overnight-free and precise 10-minute detection capability, significantly enhances public willingness to undergo testing and reduces the occurrence of chronic comorbidities. Clinical trials at National Taiwan University Hospital's Health Management Center have demonstrated an accuracy rate of up to 95% compared to sleep centers. The technology has already been implemented at the NTU Hospital Health Management Center and is gradually being adopted by other prominent medical institutions such as Good Liver Clinic, China Medical University Hospital Health Examination Center, and Full Health Clinic.
