    Founder And Board Member
    Flotbi Inc. 2017 - 2024
    Each year over 2.8 million Emergency Room visits occur for head injuries, with up to 85% of these patients receiving computed tomography (CT) scans for mild traumatic brain injury. For those who receive a CT scan, 4 out of 5 find that there is nothing wrong; this equates to almost 2 million unnecessary CT scans every year, with this number rising dramatically on an annual basis. CT scan procedures -and the equipment they require- are limited in their availability and not cost-or-time-effective. Furthermore, repetitive CT scans have been shown to increase an individual’s lifetime risk of cancer.Our goal at FloTBI is to reduce the number of unnecessary CT scans performed in the post-injury medical response protocol, and instead utilize the highly-reliable method of salivary biomarker diagnostics to rule out mTBI at the site of the injury. Our intellectual property covers the administration of an on-site screen for salivary markers of head injury, the results of which will determine the patient’s need for subsequent Emergency Room transport and CT scan. This self-powered, handheld device is easy-to-use for any individual regardless of medical knowledge, and can be stocked on an as-needed basis for athletic events, at-home use, minute clinics or disaster relief efforts.http://www.FloTBI.com
