KOIBIG (CEO Yoo Seung-gu) will participate
in the 36th Korea International Medical & Hospital Equipment Show (KIMES
2021) which will run Mar. 18-21 to showcase its transdermal pain relief
electric stimulation device Pain Block, and various beauty devices made with
plasma and cooling feature.
KOIBIG is a venture company that develops
and manufactures medical devices. This time, it developed a transdermal pain
relief electrical stimulation device called Pain Block that treats pain
non-surgically without injections or drugs by using advanced neuroscience
medical technology that is safe for the human body, and even has acquired
intellectual property right.
The Pain Block medical device is a new
medical technology that enables patients to recognize pain signal as painless
signal by generating soft yet strong painless signals that are harmless to the
human body when the electrode is attached to the pain point and the device is
turned on. Based on this, KOIBIG obtained approval for the item as a
non-invasive pain-free signal therapy with a non-payment code (MZ012) from the
MFDS, and is seeking to enter the global market by completing ISO 13485
certification. Last year, it successfully exported to Indonesia. Currently, it
has taken interest in China, Vietnam, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia and it is
running exporting and certification through export branching projects.
In Korea, more than 500,000 patients are
suffering from cancer pain, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, complex site pain
syndrome, and neuropathy after shingles. They have difficulty in having normal
social activities due to the occasional pain, and they become resistant to
drugs from taking painkillers frequently and eventually become unable to
control pain.
In particular, about 35% of patients with
such pain even feel suicidal thoughts due to insomnia and depression, and their
pain levels go up, making them dependent on narcotic analgesics. This causes a
lot of side effects, and due to extreme pain, an implantable drug injector is
inserted into the body to control the pain. But, the pain index is treated 10
times for two weeks with the Pain Block medical device showed reduced pain
level without relying on such surgery or drugs.

The research institute affiliated with
KOIBIC has developed a skin beauty device and a cooling ultrasonic beauty
device by using the latest plasma technology, and will continue to introduce
new products. By acquiring KC certification for beauty devices, the interest of
distribution-related workers and skin-related workers is increasing, and it is
growing as a unicorn company.
KIMES is Korea's largest medical and
hospital equipment show that has made steady growth with the development of the
Korean medical industry, starting from its first in 1980. Currently, Korea's
medical industry has transformed into a technology-intensive high-tech industry
such as medical information systems, ultrasound machines, imaging medical
equipment, robotic medicine, AI, and rehabilitation medicine. KIMES is growing
into a world-class medical exhibition while contributing to the advancement of
the Korean medical industry. Exhibitors will showcase new technologies and new
products in the medical industry, such as advanced hospital facilities, medical
information systems grafted with IT technology, and automobile industry for
rapid patient transportation.
