Instadiagnostics is developing a point-of-care (POC) diagnostic technology platform with the aim of bringing centralized laboratory testing to the patient’s bedside. This platform will allow for early diagnosis, screening, and treatment monitoring at the POC (primary care centers, community clinics, urgent care centers, emergency departments, etc.) without requiring additional trips to have blood drawn, lengthy wait times for results, or delays in diagnosis and follow up testing. Our diagnostic platform will improve patient care/satisfaction, medical outcomes, and workflow for healthcare providers, while reducing overall medical costs.

Instadiagnostics’ product is a diagnostic technology platform, consisting of a portable electronic reader and disposable, disease-specific cartridges. Each cartridge will detect a panel of biomarkers from a small volume of un-processed sample, such as whole-blood, urine, or saliva. The system will provide clinical laboratory quality results in under 15 minutes, allowing medical professionals to monitor/diagnose/treat patients within a single visit. This will reduce the need for additional trips to have blood drawn, lengthy wait times for results, and delays in diagnosis or follow up testing.

Some key features:

       Minimally invasive using blood from a finger prick

       Simultaneous detection of multiple biomarkers

       Lab-quality results — Each sample is split and tested in triplicate using independent sensors with controls

       Rapid results (15 minutes or less)

       Single device that performs multiple tests

       Low power portable/rechargeable electronic reader

       HIPAA-compliant wireless connectivity

       Electronic medical record (EMR) compatibility

       Easy to use and interpret with minimal training
