Problem
1 in 50 pregnancies in the US are ectopic. In the UK the number is 6 in 50. An ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy that happens outside of the uterus. An ectopic pregnancy often happens in the Fallopian tubes (a pair of structures that connect the ovaries and uterus). The fallopian tubes aren’t as flexible.
There is an urgent need for more effective treatments for patients suffering from degenerative disc disease. Specifically in spinal fusion surgeries, incidents of nonunion- when the bones of the spine fail to fuse correctly- are high risk and can severely impact patients’ quality of life. One of the most expensive and invasive medical procedures,
Angina is a form of chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart and is a symptom of coronary artery disease. It is often described as squeezing, heaviness, tightness, or chest pain. Refractory angina (RA) is a persistent condition of angina, which cannot be treated by current medical therapy, angioplasty/percutaneous interventions, or coronary bypass surgery.
Every year 10 million people die from cancer, 6.8 million die from neurological disorders, and half a million die from neglected tropical diseases. Although there are tremendous advancements being made in these fields every day, there's still a dire need for better, cheaper, and more accessible treatments. By miniaturizing the test tube,
Creative Caring is an exchange platform to match medical researchers needs for underfunded and orphan diseases with companies and organizations with untapped resources to achieve key breakthroughs and medical moonshots.
Creative Caring serves as an intermediary organization that connects medical researchers to the equipment, technology and talent they need to progress in underfunded disease research initiatives.
Code Blue MedTech - Affordable, portable, easy-to-use, autonomous cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation (AED) device that bystanders use to save the life of a patient in sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and increases the odds of survival of out-of-hospital SCA from 5% to 31%.
Our long-term goal is to develop home-based wearable technology solutions to detect and monitor health conditions indicated by disease-specific biomarkers from the saliva in real-time. Disease prevention is the secret to longevity. A healthy lifestyle combined with disease prevention can protect, promote, and maintain health and well-being and to prevent disease, disability, and death.

Arm Monkey is part toy, part exercise machine, that makes rehabilitation fun for infants and toddlers (6-24 months). It is aimed towards providing arm rehabilitation for young children with neuromuscular conditions that can be improved with arm exercises. Arm Monkey consists of a system of colorful buttons placed in front of the child. 
THE PROBLEM:
There is no precise digital record of prior surgery. Consequently, patient safety suffers when follow-up surgery is required days, months and years later. Legacy out-of-date “analog” operative dictations are often imprecise, vague, incorrect, and obsolete. As a result, follow-up surgical outcomes can be inconsistent, poor, unnecessarily excessive, and mistakes are common.
