InflammaSense, now known as VitalX, is a health technology company focused on early detection of sepsis and other inflammatory diseases by leveraging the vagus nerve's capabilities. The company develops a discreet device that continuously monitors traditional biological signals such as electrocardiogram (ECG), respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation. In addition to these conventional metrics, VitalX's innovative device incorporates a patent-pending neural signal that facilitates the timely identification of sepsis. By transmitting early alarms to clinicians, the technology aims to enhance patient outcomes and enable healthcare professionals to make critical, life-saving decisions more effectively.
