Description: A commercial optical diagnostic company focused on providing clinicians with critical information to improve patient care. The Optical Renal Function Monitor (ORFM) is their first product platform and is focused on real-time, easy to use, and cost-effective monitoring of kidney function. Their non-invasive monitoring technology works in a similar fashion to pulse oximetry by using a light sensor placed on the skin. After the sensor has been placed, a proprietary biocompatible tracer is administered. The system can then monitor the patient''s real-time point-of-care kidney function. This information will allow for earlier detection of renal issues enabling clinicians to provide earlier, and hence more effective interventions. MediBeacon has created a research grade technique that is clinically applicable for real-time point-of-care Glomerular Filtration Rate measurement (mGFR). MediBeacon has invented a fluorescent tracer agent (MB-102) that is removed from the blood exclusively by the GFR mechanism of the kidneys. Together with their non-invasive detection device, this will deliver a real-time point-of-care measurement of GFR.
