The first of its kind in objective pain measurement
Why PainTrace?
PainTrace measures the body’s physiologic response to pain through a noninvasive biosignal — capturing what subjective reporting and behavioral observation can’t. By analyzing real-time electrical activity linked to the nervous system, PainTrace quantifies pain objectively, offering data-driven insight into the body’s experience of pain.
Whether in clinical care or research, PainTrace bridges the gap between perception and physiology. Its intuitive platform allows you to track pain responses over time, evaluate interventions, and validate outcomes with measurable data. From translational research to real-world application, PainTrace provides a new lens to understand pain — helping you see it, measure it, and manage it with clarity.
How It's Used
Tracking Treatment Efficacy
Surgical & Anesthesia Monitoring
Pain — The Missing Link in Precision Medicine
In 2016, an estimated 20.4% of U.S. adults experienced chronic pain and 8.0% lived with high-impact chronic pain.1
Chronic pain affects people across every demographic — it is a universal human malady that transcends age, geography, and circumstance.
The capability to quantitatively assess pain we can improve pain management, healthcare, and quality of life.
PainTrace addresses the gap by providing an objective, physiological measurement of pain.
