Parasym - Non-Invasive Neuromodulation Device for Vagus Nerve
The vagus nerve has been called the ‘great wandering protector’ of the body, it’s made up of an intricate neural network that maintains homeostasis and equilibrium in important processes. Vagus is Latin for wandering, and the vagus nerve has earned this name due to its wide distribution traveling from most organs to the brainstem and projecting to other brain regions. Reciprocal neural connections with several of these brain areas serve as a control center that responds to new information ...

Cardiac Output Monitor for Unmet Need
Circulatory shock, often diagnosed as hypotension, is a primary cause of complications in the OR and in the ICU. When this happens, clinicians have 1-2 minutes to prevent damage to vital organs. Timely intervention with hemodynamic-guided therapy is critical to ensure sufficient oxygen delivery and preserve end organ ...

Natural Bionanomatrix Coating Technologies for Cardiovascular Disease industry
Stents are the most common cardiovascular implants used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, there are concerns about in-stent renarrowing (restenosis) with bare metal stents and late stent thrombosis and inflammatory responses with drug-eluting stents. The endothelium is the lining of the blood vessels that is a thin layer of endothelial cells and underlying nanofibrillar basement membrane. It modulates vascular tone by release of factors such as nitric oxide. With stent deployment, there is ...

Natural Bionanomatrix Coating Technologies for Brain Aneurysm Industry
More than 3% of the population has unruptured cerebral aneurysms, approximately 10 million people in the US. About 30,000 rupture per year, with devastating consequences. More than 30% of patients with ruptured aneurysms die, and 4 of 7 who survive have significant disabilities. Detachable microcoils are now used in more than 70% of treated aneurysms. The risk of recurrence, or recanalization, remains surprisingly high at approximately 20-30%. Various modifications are used clinically with limited evidence that ...

Natural Bionanomatrix Coating Technologies for BioNanomatrix Industry
The Endomimetics bionanomatrix provides the following key attributes: A reservoir for sustained release of nitric oxide, which stimulates healthy normal endothelial cell coverage while limiting smooth muscle cell proliferation and platelet adhesion. The sustained release of nitric oxide promotes normal healthy vasodilation. An endothelial cell adhesive molecule, which promotes retention of endothelial cells. Self-assembling amino acid chains that are free of solvents typically used in device coatings, which may ...

Natural Bionanomatrix Coating Technologies for Dialysis Fistula industry
More than 500,000 U.S. patients have end stage renal disease, and over 80% of them utilize hemodialysis. A significant problem for dialysis patients is the development of a functioning and durable vascular access, preferably an arteriovenous fistula (AVF). After creation, about 60% of AVFs fail to mature successfully for dialysis use. This is due to inadequate vasodilation and smooth muscle cell hyperplasia at the distal venous ...

Multi-Beat Analysis Technology (MBA) for Clinical Impact
Accurate CO monitoring is essential for effective, proactive hemodynamic management, especially for patients in whom CO is low or changing. An independent study at New York-Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center conducted in 40 liver transplant and cardiac surgery patients in the OR or ICU using continuous PA catheter as the reference showed that the Argos Monitor was 50% more accurate than the market leader’s monitor, and that it was 45-50% better in patients with CO < 5 L/min or with changing ...

Retinal vessel analysis system for Cardiology industry
Retinal vessel analysis provides biomarkers on the condition and function of vessels as well as their regulation within microcirculation. It therefore complements the diagnostics of macrocirculation to include the non-invasive vascular diagnostics of ...
