Microfluidics POC Coagulation Testing

  • Clinical Condition
    •  Coagulation profile of a trauma patient changes rapidly.
  • Current Practice
    • Coagulation testing is done remotely, plasma testing only.
    • Slow process, does not consider blood cell biology.
  • Solution
    •  The only point of care rapid microfluidic coagulation test based on blood cell properties that minimizes diagnostic time and improves treatment.
    • Portable, point of care test, repeatable over time, makes use of an already in place device.
    • Patent owned by collaborator at the Wyss Institute.
    • Large market: all surgery, ICU, ER (critical sick) patients.
