Flomark Ltd is a business which designs and develops medical devices to sell under licence. These devices are much cheaper and more accurate than the competition and create a system which produces fluid balance data. We then sell analytics using this data to help inform clinical care.
We have an innovative flow meter which is very accurate at low flow rates, reliable, and cheap enough to be used in consumable devices. This allows direct measurement of flow rates using our devices which are much cheaper than the competition. Using a suite of such devices (consumable and electronic devices for infusion, and the same pairing for urine output) is the only way to achieve end-to-end automated fluid balance measurement. Providing reliable fluid balance data will decrease Acute Kidney Injury by 33% and Fluid Overload by 56%, giving huge reductions in morbidity and mortality, as well as their associated costs.
Fluid balance (fluid input v output) is fundamental to patient care. Data is inaccurate and not relied upon in clinical decision making. This leads to Acute Kidney Injury and Fluid Overload, contributing to more than 2m deaths per year globally, costs the UK £1Bn pa and the US £20Bn pa.
For nil-by-mouth patients, fluid input is via infusions. Gravity IV sets (‘drips’) are 85% inaccurate, and infusion pumps are overpriced and have poor accuracy. For catheterised patients, urine output is monitored manually and is 39% inaccurate, even in ICU.
Fluid balance is the last parameter which is not automated. Patient care suffers, and the market is poorly served by 1970s technology.
We have four physical devices (two consumable, two electronic). The high volume, low margin consumable devices will be sold via licensing agreements. The infusion consumable matches the market average price (roughly 50-60p, COG 30p), with 3-4p to Flomark Ltd. The urine output consumable will match the price of a urine collection bag (£2.50), with 10p to Flomark Ltd. The infusion electronic device will sell for £800 (infusion pumps cost around £1600), COG £200. The urine output electronic device will sell for £200, COG £50.
The data product will be sold as a subscription for £250k per trust per year. This is around 10% of the £2.5m savings per hospital that the data would generate.
