  • Announced significant milestones at its Cedar Psychiatry clinics: administering over 5,000 ketamine treatments and over 2,000 Spravato™ treatments.
  • Clients receiving ketamine treatment at Novamind’s Cedar Psychiatry clinics are offered specialized therapy, pre- and post-ketamine-administration (ketamine-assisted psychotherapy).
  • Cedar Psychiatry specializes in evidence-based therapeutic protocols that facilitate the integration of ketamine experiences and optimize treatment outcomes for clients.

TORONTO, ON / January 28, 2021 / Novamind Inc. (CSE:NM) (“Novamind”), a leading mental health company specialized in psychedelic medicine, is proud to announce significant milestones at its Cedar Psychiatry clinics: administering over 5,000 ketamine treatments and over 2,000 Spravato™ treatments.

Launched in 2016, Cedar Psychiatry is a leading provider of innovative, evidence-based mental health therapies in the United States.

Clients receiving ketamine treatment at Novamind’s Cedar Psychiatry clinics are offered specialized therapy, pre- and post-ketamine-administration (ketamine-assisted psychotherapy). Cedar Psychiatry specializes in evidence-based therapeutic protocols that facilitate the integration of ketamine experiences and optimize treatment outcomes for clients.

The number of ketamine treatments administered at Cedar Psychiatry clinics grew 90% from 2019 to 2020. During the same period, total Spravato™ treatments at Cedar Psychiatry clinics have grown over 400%. Spravato™ is a version of ketamine that was approved by the U.S. FDA for treatment-resistant depression (TRD) in March 2019, and for major depressive disorder (MDD) with suicidal ideation or behaviour in August 2020. Clinical research studies that supported FDA approval showed that Spravato™ can effectively benefit people with these conditions, which can be difficult to treat.

“Spravato™ requires specialized infrastructure and processes that can be difficult for small mental health practices to implement, but Cedar Psychiatry has the scale and expertise to effectively manage the challenges of offering these novel medications to our clients,” commented Dr. Reid Robison, Chief Medical Officer and Director of Novamind.

“The need for innovative mental health services has never been greater. This demand is reflected in a sharp increase in visits to our clinics, and the growing adoption by our clients of alternative mental health treatments” added Yaron Conforti, CEO and Director of Novamind.

January 20, 2021 – AI/ML Innovations Inc. (CNSX :AIML.CN ) (OTC:FIRZF) , a company focused on acquiring and furthering Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning technologies that address urgent societal needs, announces that its subsidiary, Health Gauge, successfully displayed its proof-of-concept deployment in a study funded by The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, further validating its technology. Health Gauge was invited in 2019 to participate, as the sole technology provider, in a Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation funded initiative with ICDDR , B (the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research of Bangladesh) on a research project to study ways to reduce pregnancy complications and mortality, by making healthcare more accessible using wearable solutions. Health Gauge was invited to participate in this study as a result of ICDDR,B’s learning of Health Gauge’s break-through solution in digital pulse and ECG analysis, using simple, affordable, and quality digital signal capture.  For this study, Health Gauge’s personal health monitoring solution, including its wearable device, smart phone app, and AI-driven cloud processing platform was used, in conjunction with the support of community-based health service providers.

Conclusion

Studies such as this validate the proof-of-concept of Health Gauge’s products, and show the vast and varied commercial opportunities available within Health Gauge’s bespoke business model. It speaks to the merits and importance of how Health Gauge’s latest generation solutions can help solve important community health problems, in affordable ways, while readily fitting into existing managed care programs – anywhere. Physicians, other healthcare professionals, and individuals can apply and adapt the Health Gauge solution to a number of different health conditions and settings for personal health monitoring and management – showing the larger value of Health Gauge’s device and applications.

Blood pressure related pregnancy maladies are of concern globally, and a leading cause of death amongst pregnant women. Health Gauge’s products have both the ability and opportunity to capitalize on this critical women’s health issue, while providing an invaluable service that has a direct impact on health outcomes.

Background

The study, which commenced in 2019, focused on serving pregnant women who were at risk of developing eclampsia, a hypertension-related significant health risk. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are extremely dangerous to both the mother and child, and are in fact one of the three leading causes of maternal death worldwide. While hypertension complicates 10% of all pregnancies and is responsible for 14% for all maternal deaths globally, in the developing world it is of even greater concern where mortality rates can be as high as 20%.
