From radiologists to cardiologists; neurologists to anesthetists – medical professionals around the world are opting to carry out minimally-invasive interventional procedures. The reason? A smaller entry wound and less invasive surgery leads to faster recovery times, and ultimately, better patient outcomes.

However, even though visualization, control and imaging technologies continue to evolve, current options fall short of open procedures. Moreover, having many different data sources to review during each procedure adds further complexity.

SentiAR is digital health, software device company adding a new dimension to clinical practice in interventional procedures. Spun out of Washington University, we are developing the first 3D visualization platform using real-time holography of the patient's anatomy and catheter location, ''floating'' over the patients, with a goal to provide the clinician and patient a faster, safer delivery of care. SentiAR’s mission is to transform the experience for both patient and clinician in interventional procedures with a 3D augmented reality platform featuring real-time holographic visualization of the patient’s actual anatomy, “floating” over the patient. The visualization is fully controllable “hands-free” by the clinician, providing an ergonomic breakthrough for the treatment and analysis of cardiac arrhythmias within an interventional catheter lab environment. SentiAR is developing the platform for eventual FDA submission.

With more than 90% of patients undergoing IV therapy at some point during a hospital stay, AccuVein is a simple, safe solution that can increase vein assessment proficiency, help avoid patient IV complications, and address clinical and operational priorities.

Clinicians can see veins, valves, and bifurcations not visible to the naked eye, leading to better-informed site assessment decisions, improved needle/catheter placement, and enhanced patient care. 

AccuVein Inc. is the global leader in vein visualization technology. AccuVein’s flagship product, the AV400, is the world’s only hand-held, non-contact vein illumination solution. It allows healthcare professionals to see a map of peripheral veins on the skin’s surface with the goal of accessing or avoiding veins. It is built on proprietary technology as embodied in its growing patent portfolio that covers a broad range of imaging and medical diagnostic technologies.
