Clinical Studies

A Strong Medical & Scientific Foundation

Guided by a world-renowned Scientific Advisory Board, InterCure, the maker of RESPeRATE, is committed to evidence-based medicine, clinical validation and a sound scientific foundation.

The Company has already demonstrated strong clinical validation for RESPeRATE. Clinical achievements for RESPeRATE, our non-drug medical device for lowering blood pressure, include:

• The first and only medical device indicated for the adjunctive treatment of hypertension.
  
  
• 14/9 mmHg average sustained blood pressure reductions within 8 weeks.
  
  
• No side effects, no drug interactions.
  
  
• Results of six clinical trials were published in peer-reviewed medical journals. [1-5] .
