Problem
Current blood coagulation testing methods often require specialized equipment and trained personnel, limiting accessibility and delaying time-sensitive results, especially outside traditional hospital settings. Traditional methods may also involve larger blood draws, increasing the risk of complications, particularly in vulnerable populations.
Solution
Levisonics offers a point-of-care platform for comprehensive assessment of bleeding and thrombosis risk, utilizing non-contact blood coagulation devices. The technology employs photo-optical and viscoelastic measurements for real-time analysis, requiring only a drop of blood. Containerless processing eliminates surface contact during testing, preventing sample contamination and increasing reliability. The portable and compact benchtop design enables use outside traditional hospital settings, providing actionable results in real-time.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes healthcare providers in pediatric hemostasis management, bleeding disorder management, anticoagulant therapy monitoring, transfusion guidance, and invasive procedures, as well as professionals in industrial quality control, pharmaceutical research & development, biomedical research, veterinary medicine, and small animal research.
