1. Regulatory Status, Intended Use, and Disclaimer
For Investigational Use Only:
DETECTRA is a patient management system with remote monitoring of inflammatory arthritis. It is designed to support and manage patients diagnosed with or at risk of inflammatory arthritis, including Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA). The system helps monitor disease onset, progression, and response to treatment through a mobile app for patients and a web dashboard for healthcare professionals (HCPs).
The App is not commercially approved or CE-marked as a medical device in any country (including the EU, Switzerland, UK or USA) at this stage. Regulatory submissions are planned.
Use is restricted to approved clinical research or pilot settings under the oversight of licensed investigators and in compliance with local laws and ethics committees.
Medical Disclaimer:
DETECTRA is not a diagnostic tool and does not replace clinical judgement or emergency care.
Always consult a licensed healthcare professional for medical advice.
