The technology is for early detection of a deadly pregnancy complication called “HELLP syndrome,” a form of severe preeclampsia that can lead to the death of both mother and child if not diagnosed in time. Unfortunately, the best available methods currently take several hours, which may be too late. Therefore, it is important to develop a fast, cheap, and an efficient method.
The Hemolix technology can detect HELLP almost instantly with great accuracy, at a low cost, and it can be made available practically anywhere.
The Hemolix technology turns mobile phones into biomedical testing platforms by combining innovative computer processing with a low-cost plastic device that attaches to a Smartphone. It then uses an application that allows for fast and accurate measurement of blood plasma hemoglobin concentration. This system can be made available anywhere in the world via a downloadable software package and a physical model that can be easily 3D printed.
