Profusa Inc...
“In between annual physicals we really don’t
know what’s going on in our body,” explained
Ben Hwang
, Ph.D., Profusa’s CEO.“While
fitness trackers and other wearables provide
insights into our heart rate, respiration and
other physical measures, they don’t provide
information on the most important aspect
of our health: our body’s chemistry.What
if there was a better way of knowing how
you’re doing — how you’re really doing?”
According to Dr. Hwang, the company’s bio-
sensors will have applications for consumer health and wellness, as well
as the management of chronic diseases such as Peripheral Artery Disease
(PAD), diabetes, and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
“Aimed at being a leading force in the digital disruption of medicine, Pro-
fusa’s real-time biosensors are poised to revolutionize healthcare, yielding
significantly more insights into one’s overall health status and performance
than tracking physical parameters alone.”
