Perosphere ClotChek – A Novel Point-of-Care Coagulometer

SPEAKERS – Sasha Bakhru, PhD, Perosphere Technologies

DESCRIPTION – Perosphere, a private medical technologies company, is changing the way decisions are made at the point of care in hospitals and outpatient clinics for patients at risk for bleeding with the invention of Perosphere ClotChekTM – a novel drug-agnostic, point-of care diagnostic instrument sensitive to and labeled for use with direct oral anticoagulants that provides rapid measurement of a patient’s coagulation status. Perosphere ClotChek delivers easy-to-interpret clotting time results with lab-like precision in just minutes, regardless of anticoagulant medication, blood clotting disorders, or coagulopathies. Perosphere ClotChek enables healthcare providers to quickly assess and make important clinical decisions with clarity and confidence. Perosphere ClotChek serves to help establish a new standard of care for patients on anticoagulant therapies or at risk for bleeding, and has the potential to improve efficiency, provide significant cost savings, and support better patient management.
