(the “Company”), (NASDAQ: ECOR), a commercial-stage bioelectronic medicine and wellness company, today announced the results of its most recent Truvaga Plus consumer study conducted earlier this year. Based on a 30-day in-home use test by an independent third-party research firm, Truvaga Plus helped its users improve sleep, focus, stress, energy, and mood.

39 participants were instructed to use the Truvaga Plus product at home twice a day for 30 days to assess the product's benefits, efficacy, and overall user experience. Self-assessment evaluations were reported after 7 and 30 days. After 30 days, users reported the following:

Of those that felt they slept better, 72% reported they received between 30 minutes to 2+ hours or more sleep each night.

“I started using the product with not much expectation because of how simple it seemed,” said [one/Abhinav G. a] study participant. “But I was pleasantly surprised that something so easy to use and that has no harmful effects, actually helps me sleep better and have lower stress.”

After the study completed, 87% of users said they were likely to continue to use Truvaga Plus for ongoing overall wellness benefits.

“We are thrilled with the results of the Truvaga Plus consumer study,” stated Dan Goldberger, Chief Executive Officer at electroCore. “The remarkable positive benefits, and complete lack of problems reported by study participants using Truvaga Plus is very exciting for future adoption of our health and wellness product offerings.”
