Accurate breath analysis is key for diagnosis and assessment of pulmonary illnesses. Breath analysis is an important evaluation tool to support respiratory therapists and pulmonologists in the diagnosis and treatment of varying respiratory illnesses. Unfortunately, moisture is an impediment to successful breath analysis. Moisture in breath samples can adversely impact the accuracy of breath ...
We are pleased to announce that MediPines AGM100, a non-invasive pulmonary gas exchange analyzer, was selected as a finalist in the 2021 Medical Design Excellence Awards (MDEA). The MDEAs is the premier design competition in the MedTech industry organized by MD+DI and recognizes the significant achievements in medical product design and engineering that improve the quality of healthcare delivery ...
A recent clinical study published by medical researchers from UC San Diego School of Medicine has established that an expired breath sampling method is comparable to the long-established blood-based method (ABG) of measuring pulmonary gas exchange efficiency. Published in the American Journal of Physiology Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology, the study, entitled “Measuring the ...
SARS-CoV-2 currently has the world in its grasp. A quick, non-invasive test to identify an infection would be a tremendous step forward. There is a high probability that this disease can be detected in the exhaled breath but also monitoring the impact of treatment or medication in exhaled breath is highly relevant. IONICON PTR-TOF systems have become the de-facto standard for real-time breath ...
There is a high probability that this disease can be detected in the exhaled breath but also monitoring the impact of treatment or medication is highly relevant. Sampling exhaled breath is non-invasive and simple. But the analysis is the challenge: Several hundred volatile compounds have so far been identified in exhaled breath and their range of concentrations, typically in the ...
Thermo Fisher Scientific, the world leader in serving science, and Owlstone Medical, the global leader in Breath Biopsy for applications in early disease detection and precision medicine, have entered into a collaborative partnership to advance the early diagnosis of cancer and other diseases through the discovery and validation of novel biomarkers by non-invasive breath sampling. Through the ...
In September the International Association for Breath Research (IABR)’s Breath Summit 2019 took place in Leicestershire, UK. IONICON participated as an exhibitor and with scientific contributions, also conducting a crowd breath experiment. Numerous excellent talks covered the whole spectrum of breath analysis could be enjoyed by the attendees. Several presented PTR-TOF as their main tool ...
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today approved the Gastric Emptying Breath Test (GEBT), a new non-invasive test to aid in the diagnosis of delayed gastric emptying, known as gastroparesis. Current tests used to diagnose gastroparesis typically involve the use of a small amount of radioactive material or imaging equipment, so testing must be conducted in specialized outpatient centers. ...
Cairn Diagnostics, formerly known as Advanced Breath Diagnostics (ABDiagnostics), has launched the 13C-Spirulina Gastric Emptying Breath Test (GEBT). The GEBT is intended for measurements of the rate of solid-phase gastric emptying and as an aid in the diagnosis of delayed gastric emptying (gastroparesis) in symptomatic adults. The Cairn GEBT was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ...
A development in early mesothelioma detection has the potential to improve the diagnosis process for patients. In support of its clients who are affected by this disease, Shrader & Associates, LLP is excited about the “electronic nose,”—a test developed by researchers in Italy and the Netherlands that analyzes breath samples to detect compounds indicating mesothelioma. ...
