OPOS, Fullpower enter partnership to create-The First 24/7 Opioid Compliance Solution

New Delhi: Fullpower Technologies, the sleep technology company and OPOS, the opioid optimization company” announced a partnership to create “The first 24/7 opioid compliance solution“. The solution combines Fullpower’s patented contactless biosensing polysomnography grade sleep monitoring and AI platform with OPOS opioid optimization, functional monitoring, and prescriber risk management.

The opioid epidemic has revealed that these powerful pain medications have real risks. The more recent reductions in opioid prescribing have created new obstacles for patients who rely on these important treatments. Physicians are challenged with compliance across a wide range of new opioid prescribing guidelines from the CDC, state medical boards and recent changes in state laws across the country that define a new de facto standard of care for opioid use. The Fullpower OPOS solution ensures that physicians are able to meet the new standard of care and adhere to the guidelines based on information that reflects the 24/7 life experience of the patient non-invasively while protecting privacy and security.

It is estimated that there are 116 million people suffering from chronic pain in the US and as many as 30 million patients receive long term opioid care (IOM, 2011). Chronic opioid therapy and the complexities of polypharmacy affect sleep, daily activities, and quality of life. Through 24/7 functional monitoring, physicians and their patients can gain insight into the efficacy, safety, and risks of long term opioid use to maximize a patient’s quality of life.

“Patients in America deserve safe access to the best medical treatment of their pain while we pursue a cure. OPOS delivers what doctors want and patients need.” – William G Brose, MD, OPOS Chief Medical Officer, a 30-year innovator in chronic pain management and Founder Stanford University Pain Program.

According to Dr Carl Noe, Professor in the Department of Pain Management and Anesthesiology at UT Southwestern Medical Center, Director of its Division of Pain Management and Medical Director of the Eugene McDermott Center for Pain Management, “This is a game-changer. Optimizing both medication and non-medical tools along a continuum of chronic pain care has always been the holy grail. This is the realm of truly individualized care for pain patients.”

Justin Kromelow, CEO of OPOS said: “We considered all available PSG-Level technologies as well as big data and AI technology platforms. These are essential components of a 24/7 compliance system. Fullpower is the clear technology leader. Only Fullpower demonstrated proven technology at a scale that is able to help us address this large problem and improve many lives today. That is why OPOS partnered with Fullpower.”

Fullpower CEO, Philippe Kahn said: “Leveraging AI-innovation and Fullpower’s Sleep technology leadership, OPOS and Fullpower are delivering life-changing experiences that help manage one of the most challenging epidemics of the 2020 decade.”
