About Us

The only AI-powered clinical intelligence platform for pressure injury prevention and management.

Founded on 15+ years of electrical stimulation science, cleared by the FDA and Health Canada, and now executing on US commercial launch.

"Preventing the Preventable. Powered by Proven Science."

NeuroKinetic Medical is a medtech company transforming outcomes for patients at risk of pressure injuries — a costly, largely preventable clinical burden affecting millions of patients annually across hospital, long-term care, and home health settings.

Our flagship platform, Prelivia™, targets Stage I and Stage II pressure wounds — the 98.7% of pressure injuries that are still reversible — before they progress to the costly, unreimbursed Stage III and IV events that devastate patients and health system finances alike.

Built on 15+ years of electrical stimulation IP through our acquisition of Rehabtronics Inc., and cleared by the FDA and Health Canada, we are now executing on US commercial launch while advancing the next generation of the platform. Phase 1 is pressure injury prevention — the same proven technology applies to venous ulcers and broader wound management.

Why Now

The convergence moment has arrived

Four forces have aligned to make NeuroKinetic not just possible, but necessary — today. Each is a structural tailwind. Together, they create an extraordinary and time-sensitive window.

01

Physical AI maturity

Edge technology and AI inference is now part of hospital and SNF infrastructure — creating the connected, sensor-enabled environment that NeuroKinetic leverages for monitoring and intervention. This infrastructure tailwind reduces deployment friction and accelerates adoption.

02

CMS penalty regime

CMS penalties and litigation costs now make pressure injuries a P&L line item, not just a QA metric. New regulations extend penalties to Stage II injuries. The average nursing home pressure ulcer lawsuit pays out $500K+. A mid-size hospital in the worst HACRP quartile loses $3M+ per year in Medicare revenue alone.

$3M+ annual revenue at risk per hospital
03

Growing risk population & cost

Adults 65+ will exceed 20% of the US population by 2030. ICU admissions, post-surgical patients, and SNF long-stay residents are all rising. Medicare faces insolvency within 7 years — yet pressure injury costs continue to grow unchecked, making prevention one of the highest-yield interventions available to health systems today.

04

Staffing crisis

Nurse-to-patient ratios are at historic lows — frontline automation of intervention and monitoring is no longer optional. Under current protocols, a 160-bed hospital needs 10 nurses working 24/7 for pressure injury management alone. With Prelivia, the same preventive outcome requires approximately 10 minutes of nursing time per patient per session.

2+ hours → ~10 min nursing time per patient

Platform features built to solve every one of these problems directly.

Preventive intervention

Stops Stage I & II pressure wounds from progressing to costly, unreimbursed Stage III & IV events. Intervenes before visible breakdown — the 98.7% window where injuries are still reversible.

Coverage where it counts

Addresses the sacrum and buttocks — 59% of all pressure wound sites — with the current form factor. Electrical stimulation restores blood flow and oxygenation to at-risk tissue, preventing ischemic injury before it forms.

Staff-independent efficacy

Electrical stimulation works regardless of staffing ratios or nurse compliance. ~10 minutes of nursing time per patient vs. 2+ hours for traditional turning protocols. A critical advantage in understaffed SNFs and hospitals.

Home & facility ready

Portable and designed for ease-of-use across hospital, long-term care, remote, and home healthcare settings. Minimal training burden — 250 nurses trained to date — with 100% patient acceptance in all clinical trials.

Expandable platform

Roadmap includes comprehensive wound and venous ulcer management — significantly expanding the addressable market beyond pressure injuries. The same proven technology, broader application.

Proven science

8 patents issued, 2 pending. 5 peer-reviewed publications. 80% less tissue injury in pre-clinical and clinical studies. 28% increase in tissue oxygenation (spO₂). Zero pressure injuries in treated patients across all completed trial arms.

Science & Method of Action
How pressure injuries form — and how Prelivia stops them

Understanding the biology is what makes Prelivia's approach so compelling. Intervention must happen before visible breakdown — that's the 98.7% window that current care completely misses.

01 — Etiology: How a pressure injury forms
Stage 1 — Pressure restricts blood flow

Sustained pressure on soft tissue restricts blood and oxygen supply. Within as little as 2 hours, tissue begins to die. This is an ischemic injury — also called a deep tissue injury — and it forms below the surface before any visible skin change appears.

Stage 2 — Ischemic injury progresses

The area of damaged tissue grows as ischemia deepens. This is the critical window — Stage I and II — where 98.7% of pressure injuries still exist and are still reversible. This is exactly where Prelivia intervenes.

Stage 3–4 — Irreversible breakdown

Ischemic injury progresses until skin and dermal layers fail. A large open wound is exposed. At this point, CMS pays $0 in reimbursement and treatment costs average $125K+ per case. Prevention is the only viable strategy.

02 — The Prelivia solution: cost-effective, scalable intervention
FDA Cleared (510k) — Bedside Unit (Durable)

The Prelivia durable unit sits at the bedside and delivers optimized intermittent electrical stimulation through proprietary single-use pads placed on at-risk tissue areas — primarily the sacrum and buttocks, which account for 59% of all pressure wound sites.

FDA 510(k) Cleared ISO Certified Razor/Blade Model
Proprietary Pads (Consumable)

Single-use proprietary pads consumed per treatment. Placed on sacrum and buttocks — the highest-risk anatomical sites. Changed per protocol. No substitution possible — creates a durable recurring revenue stream alongside the durable unit.

Prelivia Stops Ischemic Injury

Optimized intermittent electrical stimulation restores blood flow and oxygenation to at-risk tissue, preventing ischemic injury before it forms. The mechanism is simple, proven, and deeply validated across pre-clinical and clinical settings.

1
Pads placed on at-risk areas
Proprietary single-use pads applied to sacrum and buttocks — the highest-risk anatomical sites for pressure injury formation.
2
Electrical stimulation restores circulation
Intermittent ES increases blood flow and tissue oxygenation in compressed tissue, reversing the ischemic cascade before injury becomes irreversible.

Injury prevented — before it forms
80% less ischemic injury damage. 28% increase in tissue oxygenation (spO₂). Zero pressure injuries in treated patients across all completed trial arms.

Our Differentiators

No one does what we do

Competition is fragmented, reactive, and single-point. NeuroKinetic is the only end-to-end AI platform for pressure injury prevention and management — with a compounding moat of IP, data, regulatory trust, and clinical relationships.

Prevention, not treatment

Prelivia stops injuries from forming. Every competitor — wound dressings, alternating pressure mats, turning protocols — treats symptoms after the fact. That is a fundamentally inferior economic proposition for health systems facing $0 CMS reimbursement on Stage III/IV wounds.

Category-defining

Staff-independent efficacy

Electrical stimulation works regardless of staffing ratios or nurse compliance. No repositioning schedules. No reliance on overtaxed nursing staff. This is the critical advantage in understaffed SNFs and hospitals where manual protocols routinely fail under real-world conditions.

Structural advantage

Portability across all care settings

No current competitor offers a solution that is portable across clinical settings. Prelivia works in acute care hospitals, SNFs, long-term care, and home health — a single platform that follows the patient across the entire care continuum.

No competitor match

FDA-cleared & IP-protected

FDA 510(k) cleared and ISO certified. 8 patents issued, 2 pending — 15+ years of foundational electrical stimulation IP acquired through Rehabtronics Inc. 5 peer-reviewed publications. Commercially deployable today in the US and Canada.
