Intuit IV – An Automated Intravenous Catheter Device

The Problem?

• 150-200 million IV sticks annually in US w/30-50% first stick

misses.

• Can’t easily find & stick veins. • Unnecessary patient pain and costs.

The Solution?

• Small, hand-held, simple to use device to locate, target, and

access the vein, leaving behind the catheter for IV tubing

connection.

Status of Current MVP – 3 iterations in 2 months

(build/test/learn)

• A “proof of concept” to demonstrate end-to-end functionality.

• Improvements are known & achievable; risks ID’d with mitigation.

Our Advantage?

• Nothing currently on the market that fills this gap

• Nearest commercial “alternatives” are vein light systems. AccuVein, VeinViewer, Avena Glasses

• Efforts to invent similar devices are still in R&D.

Patient Safety Monitoring System

What is it?

Developed a system that monitors patient rooms and alerts clinic staff of

potential suicide conditions before they happen – particularly hangings

- Hot zones identified around doors and alarms trigger if patient loitering by

the door for a longer than normal period of time

- Motion and ligature attached to neck detection established and triggers

alarm if such motion or ligature is detected

- Display system at central nurses station linked to in-room sensors and

alarms at various states for conditions established – normal, yellow, red

Why did we build it?

– Prevention of suicides as well as extensibility into other health care and

safety related applications such as jails/prisons, residential treatment

centers, oil & gas production and refining, and manufacturing

Prototype Overview

• Developed a sensing, monitoring, warning and display system for

installation in patient rooms in psychiatric clinic to prevent suicides

• Utilizes imaging technology integrated with smart phone/tablet and/or

central display system with time triggered warnings for movements

and undesired locations within the room

• Allows for patient privacy by not utilizing a traditional camera –

shadowed figure – for psychiatric clinics – can be traditional camera

for jails/prisons as required
