MedicalCooling
The Medicalcooling ventilator can cool the patient, is doubling a cardiac arrest patient's survival rate (NNT6). With Argon or Xenon, it is the only device with two neuroprotective features. The cooling is already established in the resuscitation guidelines since 2005, but there is no usable ambulance solution. For most other indications like stroke and (m)TBI human data is still missing to make decent claims. We integrated ECG with a defibrillator and the suction pump to reduce the number of devices the paramedics have to carry to a patient. To connect to the healthcare system, we use 5G and the FHIR protocol to offer telemedicine with billing and AI treatment assistance. We are a spin-off of the University Clinic of Hamburg-Eppendorf, where pre-clinical trials have confirmed the therapy is able to cool the human brain, and that in pigs, strokes are smaller with this therapy. The pending patent application is already transferred to the CEO in Person. Right now, a Series A investment of $3 million is needed to get the product to the market. The certification process and the start of serial production at a supplier will take 22 months post-investment.
