Chronus Health
Portable handheld device that provides blood test (CBC and CMP) results in minutes, not days.
|
Chronus Health's portable device allows for real-time diagnosis at the point-of-care providing lab results in minutes, dramatically improving time to care and patient outcomes.
Our initial launch for Complete Blood Count (CBC) and Complete Metabolic Panel (CMP) accounts for 50% of all blood tests performed in United States representing a market size of $11 Billion

What's Innovative About Their Solution?
• We are automating the post-blood collection process flow that currently takes days to minutes. Our technology does not require optics (for measurements), reagent bottles (for storage), and pumps (for moving liquids). The entire analysis happens on a disposable test strip where sample preparation, fluid movement, and sensors are embedded.
• Using proprietary microfluidics and lab-on-chip technology, Chronus Health platform not only delivers results faster, it in fact yields a profit for the clinic with every test strip used.
• We are not selling blood analyzers. Our business model is razor-razorblade. We will sell the device a low cost ($400), and obtain recurring revenue from test strips ($5 per test strip). Insurance reimbursement codes already exists.
