TS-075175 — Problem
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic disease where activated fibroblasts mediate the abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) in the lung interstitial space, leading to progressive impairment of pulmonary function. Current IPF therapies are associated with significant…
TS-075161 — Problem
Acute and chronic pulmonary inflammation conditions, such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), acute lung injury (ALI) and asthma, remain a significant healthcare challenge with high mortality rates, long-term morbidity and a substantial economic burden due to prolonged hospital s…
TS-073264 —
Low‑oxygen, toxic environments created by fires or explosions in mines, tunnels, and enclosed spaces remain a leading cause of fatalities for trapped occupants and rescuers. Current self‑contained breathing and escape devices are constrained by limited oxygen supply, bulk, weight, heat generat…
TS-065154 — , 2018-345 Revolutionary treatment for ARDS using novel extracellular vesicles loaded with Anti-Inflammatory Agents.
The Need
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) remains a significant healthcare challenge with high mortality rates and long-term morbidity. Despite advancements in supportive care, there’s an urgent need for pharmacologic treatments targeting the molecular mechanisms driving ARDS pathog…
TS-062900 — This cutting-edge technology redefines the intubation process by guiding the endotracheal tube into the airway with exceptional precision.
The Need
Intubation is a critical medical procedure used to assist patients with breathing difficulties, executed through the insertion of an endotracheal tube (ET) into the windpipe. With over 313 million annual intubation procedures worldwide, ensuring first-pass success and minimizing complicati…
TS-062764 — The Pulmonary Hypertension Outcomes Risk Assessment (PHORA): a PAH risk stratification tool.
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) demands precise risk stratification for effective patient management. Clinical decision support tools can help inform treatment decisions made by physicians and other healthcare providers, usually at the point of care.
