Canada NewsWire

CALGARY, AB, June 29, 2021 /CNW/ - Health Logic Interactive Inc . (" Health Logic " or the " Company ") (TSXV: CHIP.H) (OTCPK: CHYPF), is pleased to announce its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, My Health Logic Inc. (" My Health Logic "), has received a letter of support for the Company's chronic kidney disease (CKD) technology from Lesley A. Inker , M.D. MS.  Dr. Inker is the Director of the Kidney and Blood Pressure Center at Tufts Medical Center, an Associate Professor of Medicine at Tufts University School of Medicine and a valued member of the Company's scientific advisory board (the " SAB "). This letter supports the Company's belief that its lab-on-chip device for the early detection of CKD has the potential to address a large and unmet need of patients who have, or are at risk for developing, CKD.

In her support letter, Dr. Inker, a recent addition to the SAB, stated, "…this proposed device represents a major innovation in prevention of CKD. Assessment of GFR (glomerular filtration rate) is an essential part of many clinical decisions and having easy access to GFR measurements at home or at the point of care could be transformative. Critically, you are considering the health delivery platform in addition to the technology. The software on a patient's personal devise could allow access to this information at every health encounter and even at home. Together, your vision for the landscape of kidney assessment tools could have considerable benefits to our patients, providers and health care systems."

When asked about the support letter, Dr.Rigatto, the Chief Medical Officer of My Health Logic and one of the co-founders of the Company's lab-on-chip technology, stated that "according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 1 in 7 adults in the United States are estimated to have CKD and as many as 9 in 10 adults with CKD do not know they carry the disease. ¹ We believe that our technology can shrink this testing gap and help identify high risk patients earlier for better disease prevention and  progression. I am delighted that Dr. Inker shares our vision for improving screening and treatment options for patients."
