TPM Research is addressing a long-standing gap in hospital patient care: the transition from bed to chair, lab, bathroom, or vehicle.
For nearly 90 years, the standard solution has been the traditional collapsible wheelchair with its well-known limitations. The Care Continuum Chair changes that with innovative features that deliver superior clinical, aesthetic, and financial outcomes.
PHIOGEN is a biotechnology company developing next-generation bacteriophage therapeutics to combat the global crisis of antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
Drug-resistant infections are among the leading causes of death worldwide, with limited treatment options and high recurrence rates. Current antibiotics often fail to prevent reinfection, leaving millions vulnerable to chronic disease.
Cervu is developing an innovative at-home pelvic health system that combines a multi-therapy hardware device with a mobile app to deliver personalized care for female cancer survivors.
Imagine Devices Inc. is revolutionizing neonatal and pediatric critical care with a safer, smarter approach to monitoring premature infants.
Each year, over 13 million premature infants are admitted to Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) worldwide, connected to more than 20 wires, tubes, and sensors for feeding, respiratory support, and vital signs. Conventional systems create serious risks—including nasal and skin injuries, infections, respiratory complications, and high clinical workload.
Postpartum hemorrhage remains the leading cause of maternal deaths worldwide and in the U.S., where maternal mortality rates are the highest among developed nations.
This preventable condition costs the U.S. healthcare system $1.8 billion annually, with studies showing up to 90% of deaths are avoidable.
