h2o therapeutics stated that the Parky app assists healthcare providers in developing a clinical profile of the patient outside of the clinic.

Reinforcing the possibility of data-driven, tailored treatment procedures, the app helps cover the gap between in-clinic settings and real life.

h2o therapeutics founder Yagmur Selin Gulmus said: “As a woman-founded, non-VC-backed company based in Turkey, receiving our first 510(k) clearance is a huge milestone for us.

“We believe Parky will bring great value to the Parkinson’s Disease community as an easily scalable and data-driven product.”

Additionally, the company has two other digital therapeutics products based on wearable devices in the pipeline. It plans to complete FDA submissions for the products next year.

According to the company, approximately ten million patients across the globe are living with Parkinson’s Disease, which is said to be the fastest-growing neurological disorder.
