YORBA LINDA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#innovation--MediPines, the pioneering market leader in non-invasive pulmonary gas exchange technology, today announced that its MediPines AGM100 non-invasive pulmonary gas exchange analyzer technology is now available in Southeast Asia through a sales and marketing agreement with Ambica International, one of the region’s leading providers of pharmaceuticals and medical devices.
The MediPines AGM100 is an FDA-cleared, advanced pulmonary gas exchange technology that provides Oxygen Deficit, a non-invasive respiratory impairment severity measurement and surrogate for the alveolar to arterial oxygen difference (AaDO2). It also measures gPaO2, PETCO2, and other sensitive levels of pulmonary gas exchange. The technology provides reliable, discriminative readings that enable real-time decision support for healthcare providers during times of surging respiratory patients and medical staff shortages.
The World Health Organization (WHO) designated the MediPines AGM100 as one of the notable innovative health technologies for the treatment of global priority diseases in the WHO Compendium of Innovative Health Technologies. The easy-to-use, portable system is being utilized in emergency departments and throughout the continuum of care in hospitals.
“Healthcare systems are asking for efficient ways to assess and treat respiratory patients,” said MediPines CEO, Steve Lee. “Consistent with the WHO assessment, we believe our technology will help patients in the global south as part of the broader effort to advance respiratory medicine, combat the rising chronic respiratory disease burden, and prepare for future respiratory pandemic events cost effectively.”
