Innitius

Innitius develops cutting-edge diagnostic tools to address critical gaps in maternal and fetal healthcare. Their innovations, such as detecting preterm labor risks with unprecedented accuracy, have the potential to save lives and redefine prenatal care standards globally.

The intravaginal probe/device is including on a novel technology called Torsional Waves, a type of shear elastic waves that propagate through soft tissue, radially and in-depth in a curled geometry. Torsional Waves are used to diagnose pathologies that manifest themselves through changes in tissue consistency. FineBirth’s patented intravaginal probe measures the consistency (shear modulus) of the cervical tissue, a highly specific, direct marker of pending birth. The shear modulus, in combination with other clinical parameters of the pregnant woman, is used by an Artificial Intelligence algorithm to provide a real-time assessment of whether the woman is experiencing a true or false preterm labor threat and informs health professionals in providing appropriate care.

 Supporting Innitius means championing innovation in FemTech, a critical and often underserved area of healthcare. By advancing diagnostics in maternal and fetal health, their technology addresses vital challenges faced by women globally.
