UltraLinq Healthcare Acquires Intelesens

Intelesens in Belfast has been acquired by UltraLinq Healthcare, the Connected Health Platform of Renew Health Limited.

The acquisition of Intelesens, which specialises in intelligent, wearable, non-invasive, wireless vital signs monitoring devices for both the hospital and home patient monitoring markets, will assist UltraLinq in progressing its strategy of providing a cost-effective digital health platform focused on the improvement of cardiovascular healthcare globally.

The cloud-based ultrasound and image management platform provides physicians, technologists and admins with the most effective workflow for evaluating, sharing and archiving imaging exams, such as X-Rays and Ultrasounds, and reports.

Stephen Farber, CEO of New York-based UltraLinq Healthcare, said: "Intelesens has pioneered the development of proprietary world class algorithms for the detection of a range of cardiac arrhythmias from wireless sensors on the body. This technology, coupled with the team’s incredible knowledge of the space, will allow us to make huge strides towards our end goal of providing cost-effective tools to improve the delivery of cardiovascular care globally.

"Together, with our existing cloud-based image and data management platform, we are going to be able to solve an abundance of care delivery problems that have never truly been targeted with this kind of technology."

Intelesens currently sells its products – Zensor, which assists in streamlining the medical referral pathway resulting in clinical and economic benefits, and Aingeal, which facilitates the monitoring of respiration rate, ECG, heart rate, motion and skin temperature in hospital patients – to healthcare providers in the UK, EMEA, ASEAN and North America.
