🔍 Heart failure patients remotely monitored by technology shown to cut hospitalisations by 50 %   In this article, NICE - National Institute for Health and Care Excellence explores how people diagnosed with heart failure can be remotely monitored using technology to help keep them out of hospital.    👉 Heart failure is a chronic, non-curable disease that currently affects around 60 million patients worldwide. The traditional heart failure patient journey is fragmented and unpredictable, often resulting in last-minute hospital readmissions which cause distress in patients, while putting a further strain on hospital resources.   📣 At Omini, we are committed to transforming the heart failure patient journey for the better. This is why we’re now developing an innovative blood testing device that can be used to monitor heart failure patients in outpatient care and at home.    https://lnkd.in/efxywKdF   #research #bloodtesting #cardiovascular #medtech

✍ A group of European entrepreneurs and investors have launched EU Inc., a petition to create a single pan-European startup entity under the 28th regime. The petition calls for building a true single market for a simpler cross-border collaboration process, as the current national border limitations stifle momentum. The new entity would be in charge of creating a standardized investment process across Europe, establish unified employee stock options, simplify cross-border operations and full digitize the incorporation process online. 🤝 By having a unified and simple legal framework this make it easier for startups to offer employee equity, attract investment and scale up their projects. This critical initiative would improve the chances of startup sucess in Europe, especially when sectors like MedTech struggle with market access. With an open and unified market outlined by EU Inc and the 28th regime Europe could become a more attractive place for new talent and investors 👏 Read more about EU Inc 👇 https://lnkd.in/ebG8YzqX #EU #startups #innovation #28regime #EUcommission #tech

🚀 Inside Omini: Spotlighting our Biochemistry Team Welcome to our new series where we take you into a deeper journey of Omini's inner workings 👋 Today we are highlighting our dynamic duo Pascal and Arielle, who work in one of our R&D sub teams. Their focus is on the development of our bioelectronic sensors. Their roles are essential in ensuring our device can accurately detect key biomarkers. 💥Pascal Preira, PhD. is a senior researcher specializing in biology and sensor functionalization, who holds a PhD in Biochemistry from Aix-Marseille University. At Omini, Pascal is leading the development of our biological sensors, where he is in charge of making sure the sensor functional, so that we can detect a range of biomarkers from a small blood sample. The advantage of our technology is that we can measure multiple biomarkers at the same time from the same sample. 💥Arielle NDA is an engineering student at the ESILV - Ecole Supérieure d'Ingénieurs Léonard de Vinci and junior researcher at Omini. She works closely with Pascal on the manufacturing, development and characterization of our Organic Electro-Chemical Transistor (OECT) device. Arielle recently spent the summer at the bioelectronics lab at the University of Cambridge 🏫 🥼 A key part of their role is to ensure our sensors are functional, which involves many lab experiments to make sure our metal sensors are up to the job! Their focus and synergy are around the parts of our sensors that require biochemistry skills. Together, they are working on protein and metabolite biomarkers, improving key performance parameters such as dynamic range, sensitivity, specificity, etc using their scientific expertise. With this expert duo working hard on our sensor functionalization, we are confident we will be able to deliver a point-of-care multiplexing blood testing device that will revolutionize the management of chronic diseases to better patient lives and reduce existing burdens on the healthcare system 🏥 #bioelectronics #biology #pointofcare #diagnostics #bloodtesting #chronicdisease #heartfailure #researchanddevelopment

🔍 A research team led by Dr. Paul M. Ridker at Brigham and Women's Hospital published new research on whether blood measures of cholesterol and inflammation could predict cardiovascular disease decades later in women. If so, blood tests could help guide preventive treatments 🤔 The study of 28,000 blood samples and medical information from patients across the US found that 3,662 participants experienced a heart attack, stroke, surgery to restore circulation, or a cardiovascular-related death🩸 Participants were grouped into five categories, ranging from those with the highest to lowest levels of each of the three markers - LDL cholesterol, Lp(a) and CRP. They found women with the highest levels of all three markers had more than 1.5 times the risk for stroke and more than triple the risk for coronary heart disease compared to women with the lowest levels. This research by Dr Ridker and his team shows how biomarker monitoring can be essential in the prevention of cardiovascular events, as high levels of these markers can be treated with widely available therapies such as statins. 🏥 For Omini, blood biomarker monitoring for the prevention and management of chronic diseases is at the heart of our mission. Through our point-of- care blood testing device, which has applications in home and outpatient care we aim to support the early-detection and management of chronic conditions like heart failure so we can help manage patients as early as possible and relieve the burden on hospitals. https://lnkd.in/eH8jQ_eS #research #bloodtesting #cardiovascular #womenshealth #diagnostics #cholesterol

Last week for our latest company day out, the Omini team got together at the Aquarium de Paris! 🗣 📊 During the day, we discussed the company roadmap and upcoming scientific and technical milestones. Each team member delivered a presentation on their most recent advancements from research, including our industrial progress and the latest on our biosensor development. 🥗 There was also a balance of work and play, which included a team game and dinner to celebrate the progress made this year. #teamwork #teamday #startup #medtech #innovation #diagnostics

🇫🇷 🫀 Le Groupe Insuffisance Cardiaque de la Société Française de Cardiologie a lancé la première journée nationale d'information et de dépistage dédiée à l'insuffisance cardiaque à travers 24 hôpitaux en France. 🏥 Pour cette première mondiale, ces hôpitaux pourront proposer le dépistage d'un biomarqueur spécifique (NtproBNP) à l'échelle nationale. Les dépistages auront lieu entre septembre et décembre 2024. Les patients identifiés avec une suspicion d'insuffisance cardiaque seront orientés vers un cardiologue pour des examens complémentaires et une prise en charge. Omini salue cette initiative importante qui encourage la détection précoce de l'insuffisance cardiaque pour la population française. Nous pensons que la détection précoce, la prévention et le suivi sont essentiels pour une meilleure gestion de l'insuffisance cardiaque. Nous développons un dispositif innovant de test sanguin multiplex pour surveiller les maladies chroniques comme l'insuffisance cardiaque et notre dispositif sera capable de détecter de multiples biomarqueurs, y compris le NtproBNP🩸 Cliquez sur le lien ci-dessous pour trouver votre centre de dépistage local👇 https://lnkd.in/eS2GqYu8 *** 🇫🇷 🫀 The Heart Failure Group of the French Society of Cardiology has launched the first national information and screening day dedicated to heart failure across 24 hospitals in France. 🏥 In a world first, these hospitals will be able to provide screenings for a specific biomarker (NtproBNP) on a national scale.
