Our Mission is to Develop Innovative Home Health and Point-of-Care Solutions that reduce Hospital admissions and allow the independence to be treated at home.
Respiratory Disease is an increasing issue globally. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major public health problem in subjects over 40 years of age and a major cause of chronic morbidity and mortality.Patients with moderate to severe COPD are responsible for up to 70% of the total medical expenditure in the United States and by 2030, COPD is projected to be the fourth cause of mortality.In at least 60% of the co-morbidity cases respiratory disease preceded a cardiovascular disease.
Chronic Wounds are a significant cost to healthcare systems around the world. In the USA, the Treatment of Chronic Wounds is estimatedbetween $50-100 billion USD in overall healthcare costs. The progression of Chronic Wounds is a leading cause of amputations and is associated with a reduction in Quality of Life comparable to cancer patients.
Home Health is one of the fastest growing market segments in Healthcare with a rising aging population and the need to reduce healthcare costs and increase access to care. The expected shortfall of 18M healthcare workers will accelerate the transformation.
