Encora wins FDA clearance for wearable device for essential tremor

Encora Therapeutics announced today that it received FDA 510(k) clearance for its Encora X1 device.

Clearance authorizes the commercial marketing of Encora X1 as a prescription wearable device to aid in the relief of hand tremors in the treated limb during stimulation in adults with essential tremor (ET).

The X1 device joins the wrist-worn, tremor-treating device market alongside the likes of Cala and Fasikl.

Encora X1, a non-invasive neurostimulation device, comes in at roughly the size of a typical smart watch. It senses tremor rhythm and delivers a customized stimulation that disrupts the tremor signal. This provides patients with stability and improved motor control during daily activities
