Innovation of the Year 2022
The eCoin implant for bladder control by Valencia Energy.
Forget about Lecanemab (story to follow if I don’t forget) and all those other marvelous breakthroughs that may or may not hold water when their inaugural tests and/or prototype installations are finally completed over the next two to five years. For those old-timers that can’t wait that long for relief, this nickel-sized neurostimulator that is implanted just above the ankle can be tapped into right now. Moreover, the pulses intensity and therefore their relief can be controlled with a remote.
