| Picterus | Picterus is an app under development designed to diagnose Jaundice in newborns.Untreated jaundice in newborns is responsible for more than 100,000 deaths each year. More than three-quarters of these deaths occur in the poorest regions of the world, in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. Cheap treatment is partially available, but the screeningdevices in use today cost around 7,000 dollars, making them practically unavailable in low-resource settings. In addition, due to the global trend of shorter hospital stays after birth, there is now a large unmet need for tools to follow-up jaundice in families' homes. With jaundice now being the number one reason for readmissions to hospitals after birth. | $1.6M | Venture - Series Unknown | Oct 09, 2019 |  |
