| Description |
|
EADevices works in the research and development of energy-assisted biopsy devices.
|
|
| Products / Services |
EANeedle- Designed for bone marrow biopsy and intraosseous infusion procedures.
The EANeedle- Utilizes a novel disposable tissue chamber and needle combination that allows energy assistance to provide for a clean core sample of tissue, without the concern of "dry taps," which would normally require a reinsertion of the needle.
|
|
| Technology / Differentiation |
| The greatest advantage of EADevices' technology is the elimination of the strong pushing force normally required to penetrate tissue, which often leads to intense patient anxiety and operator fatigue. |
|
| Market / Customers |
Congress passed the Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act (HR 5178) in 2000, mandating that healthcare facilities eliminate the use of "sharp" devices when possible. Reacting to this critical demand, a $693 million annual market was created.
|
|
| Status |
| EADevices was named one of ten "Rising Star" finalists in the 2004 Pittsburgh Technology Council's Tech 50 Awards.
