Fayetteville, AR - VIC Technology Venture Development (VIC) announced today the formation of Enhance Diagnostics, Inc. The company is developing a platform technology for at-home monitoring of metabolic waste, with a focus on two critical patient populations – Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and Urea Cycle Disorders (UCD).

Proper management of metabolic waste is paramount for maintaining good health, and Enhance Diagnostics will enhance patient care by introducing a novel at-home breath test for ammonia. This innovative technology platform addresses the unique challenges faced by individuals with CKD and UCD, offering significant advantages in terms of convenience, cost savings, and real-time monitoring.

Enhance Diagnostics offers a solution that allows for quantitative, real-time patient monitoring without frequent in-person visits. The company’s novel device provides at-home, real-time testing for breath ammonia levels, ensuring a non-invasive and cost-effective solution compared to conventional methods.

 

"The ability to monitor their disease at home is a critical problem for CKD and UCD patients. Physicians confirm that patients have been requesting more at-home monitoring capabilities. The Enhance Diagnostics device will enable them to monitor disease progression and severity from the comfort and convenience of their own homes." -Calvin Goforth, CEO.

 

Enhance Diagnostics enables patient monitoring in the home environment and represents a significant leap forward in addressing the challenges associated with CKD and UCD, ultimately empowering individuals to take control of their personal healthcare.
