“This financing is an important milestone which coincides with our technology’s transition to the clinical setting. Our team has developed the world’s first wireless Doppler ultrasound patch,” said Joe Eibl, co-founder and CEO of Flosonics Medical.

“This breakthrough technology will, for the first time, enable non-invasive on-demand Doppler measurement of blood flow, which we believe will be an essential tool for the medical community.”

Founded in 2015, Flosonics Medical is engaged in the research and development of non-invasive sensors aimed at improving patient care.FloPatch is the world’s first wireless, wearable Doppler ultrasound system that enables rapid, repeatable, and trusted hemodynamic assessments throughout the continuum of care.

The medical device, which has received regulatory clearance from FDA and authorization for sale from Health Canada, adheres to a patient’s neck and wirelessly delivers actionable clinical date to a clinician’s tablet via Bluetooth.

“FloPatch is a new paradigm in patient monitoring. Blood flow has been a missing vital sign, and we’re proud to have reimagined Doppler ultrasound as a simple, wireless, low-cost, single-use wearable,” said Dr. Jon-Emile Kenny, Flosonics Medical’s Chief Medical Officer.
