NEW YORK, NY - November 14, 2023 - Smart infant monitoring company, Owlet, Inc. (NYSE: OWLT), has received De Novo clearance from the FDA for its Dream Sock® medical pulse oximetry solution for infants. The company’s Dream Sock product will monitor and display infants’ live health readings, including pulse rate and oxygen saturation level, and will alert caregivers if their infant’s readings fall outside of preset ranges. Owlet’s share price rose 31% in intraday trading on Monday.
Kurt Workman, Owlet Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder, said, “Today marks a significant breakthrough in our journey to bring care to the home and empower parents with an unprecedented FDA-clearance for the Owlet Dream Sock. With this De Novo clearance, we are proud to set new standards in at-home infant care, arming parents with reliable real-time information and providing enhanced peace of mind.”
Highlights
Achieving De Novo clearance means the Owlet Dream Sock was clinically tested in both home and hospital environments, and proven to be as accurate as medical-grade baby monitoring technology and compliant with all relevant performance and safety standards by independent laboratories.
Owlet’s BabySat™ prescription monitoring system that uses pulse oximetry technology and features a modern, wire-free sock design previously received FDA clearance. BabySat is intended for infants with acute or chronic medical conditions under the supervision of a physician, BabySat provides a real-time display of a baby’s pulse rate and oxygen saturation level, and alerts parents when these customizable readings fall outside of prescribed ranges.
The Dream Sock’s new FDA-cleared features will begin rolling out to both existing and new Dream Sock users by the end of this year, in the U.S. only.
