Why MEMS® ? - Aardex Group | Medication adherence monitoring and management

Our company was founded more than 30 years ago in California, USA. We pioneered sound measures and comprehensive solutions for medication adherence. Since then, we have steadily innovated to bring the most effective adherence-enhancing solutions to the market. The scientific contribution of our company in medication adherence is recognized worldwide.

Our solutions have been deployed all around the world, across more than 70 countries, under all types of climate, and in wide variety of settings.

Our smart packages solutions based on MEMS^® technology are self-sufficient for at least 36 months without any charging. MEMS^® is the only professional solution with this lifetime.

Our solutions are ergonomic, robust, certified, and have already been used by more than 1 million patients.

MEMS has an h-index of 135, meaning that 135 MEMS-based papers have been cited more than 135 times. The use of MEMS^® has been published in 769+ peer-reviewed papers, which have jointly been cited over 65’000 times. The most-cited MEMS^® paper has > 4000 journal citations.

Statistics highlight that, papers reporting MEMS-based medication adherence findings, have 1 in 4 chance (25%) to end up with more than 100 journal citations, which guarantees impactful visibility of your research.

Our MEMS^® is developed and manufactured in Switzerland inheriting from the highest quality and precision of the legendary Swiss watch industry. 

MEMS^® 8' has a resolution of 1 sec and a precision comparable to the most famous swiss quartz watches (almost perfect precision with a variation of only a few seconds per month).

It’s already the 8th MEMS^® technology generation based on 30 years of refinements.

Our software suite solutions are available on desktop computer, tablet, and mobile phone.

All your data is stored and usable from our cloud platform.

All our MEMS^® smart packages are NFC compliant and can be read with an NFC reader.  The NFC technology is based on a radio close contact communication based on the same principle as the security of most recent generation of passports.
Using this technology, the patient is always the actor of his dosing history data transmission.

Our company, products, and services are ISO 9001 certified, CE-marked, HIPAA compatible, compliant with FDA 21CFR part 11, GDPR compliant and have been audited by the 10 largest pharma companies. All our MEMS^® products are tested individually several times throughout production and shipment to ensure the highest quality requirements.

Our solution is not build as a “best we can” approach but as a “mission critical” one to collect, store and transmit sound data.

All the data transfers are signed by the sender to guaranty data authenticity.  The communication is secured by an SSL certificate and files are encrypted and signed. They do not contain any private data.

We have several patents covering our hardware, software, and algorithmic solutions.

Our solutions are designed to function worldwide even without any communication network or power source. They were tested all around the world, under all types of climate in large variety of conditions.

MEMS^® is non-intrusive and completely friction free for the patients. There is no need to combine with an app, a phone, nor to recharge/change the battery. MEMS^® is recognized, by the end-users, as the most easy to use, easy to install and easy to maintain solution.
