TherOx, Inc. (TherOx) is a private, venture-financed medical device company based in Irvine, California, dedicated to elevating the standard of care for treatment of heart attack patients. A heart attack is caused when an artery in the heart becomes blocked. Current treatment of heart attack is to reestablish blood flow in the blocked artery as quickly as possible. Typically, this is done with a combination of medication and a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) which may include the placement of a (intracoronary) stent. PCI successfully restores blood flow, but damage to the patient’s heart remains. Blood flow in the microvasculature downstream from the blockage is compromised, and critical heart muscle tissue is damaged – or infarcted – due to oxygen deprivation brought on by the heart attack. The intent of SuperSaturated Oxygen (SSO2) Therapy from TherOx is to salvage damaged heart tissue by placing a high concentration of oxygen (~760 – 1,000 mmHg, or 5 – 7 times normal levels) into the patient’s blood plasma and delivering it directly to the area impacted by the heart attack. SSO2 Therapy serves as a complement to PCI and stenting. Immediately following the interventional procedure, proprietary technology from TherOx mixes a pre-specified concentration of “SuperOxygenated” saline solution with the patient’s blood to produce SuperOxygenated blood. The SuperOxygenated blood is then delivered through a catheter to the oxygen deficient tissue. Company research has confirmed in clinical studies that SuperSaturated Oxygen Therapy has the potential to reverse ischemia and may resuscitate tissue that may otherwise die. SSO2 Therapy circulates the patient`s own blood via the existing arterial access site used for the stenting procedure. Thus, no new access site is required. The TherOx DownStream System and DownStream Cartridge bear the CE Mark but are not available for commercial distribution in the EU at this time.

Outset is a pioneering medical technology company that always puts the patient before the machine. Our human-centered model is designed to dramatically improve not only the care experience – for patients, families, providers and physicians alike – but also cost-efficiencies for providers. And to achieve this goal, we brought together the most dedicated, creative minds from dialysis with the most dedicated, creative minds from other healthcare fields, in the belief that cross-fertilization – along with hard work – is the surest path to invention. Because we believe a dialysis machine should be as easy to use as an everyday consumer product, Tablo was designed with simplicity in mind. One example is Tablo`s touchscreen display, which offers step-by-step pictures and conversational instructions that make it hard to mess up no matter how new a patient, or caregiver, may be to dialysis. And with simplicity comes speed. We`ve set out to give people their time back. Tablo dramatically reduces the time involved in setting up and managing dialysis. There is simply less to do and less to learn.
