Problem
Heart failure is challenging to diagnose early, leading to delayed treatment and poor patient outcomes, especially for at-risk populations. Traditional diagnostic processes are often slow, invasive, and pose access challenges, with a significant percentage of patients diagnosed in emergency rooms or inpatient settings. A substantial portion of heart failure patients have their symptoms overlooked during standard clinical assessments.
Solution
Ventric Health offers Vivio, a non-invasive medical device that enables earlier and more accessible heart failure diagnosis in various care settings, including primary care and home healthcare. Vivio utilizes advanced algorithms to analyze arterial pulse and sound waveforms, detecting elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) in real-time. The device connects via Bluetooth to a mobile tablet, guiding clinicians through a test that takes under five minutes to perform. By providing rapid results and eliminating the need for invasive procedures, Vivio aims to reduce barriers to care, improve patient outcomes, and lower healthcare costs associated with late-stage diagnosis.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes value-based care organizations, home healthcare providers, and clinicians focused on managing at-risk populations and improving heart failure diagnosis rates.
