Saranas Closes $2.8 Million in New Financing

HOUSTON--()--Saranas Inc., a medical device company with innovative technology for real-time detection and monitoring of internal bleeding during endovascular procedures, today announced the completion of a $2.8 million Series C funding round. The financing follows the company’s recent De Novo application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the Early Bird™ Bleed Monitoring System. The proceeds will be used to conduct a multicenter clinical pilot in the U.S. and to support the company’s U.S. commercialization plan.

“We are pleased to bring additional investment and appreciate the confidence shown by so many returning investors. We continue our work to deliver a product to market that has the potential to significantly reduce bleeding complications while reducing related costs to providers and the healthcare system,” said President and CEO Zaffer Syed. “Since our last round of financing, we have completed design verification and validation activities, continued to build our growing intellectual property portfolio, and submitted a De Novo application to the FDA. With this investment, we are well positioned to initiate a multicenter clinical pilot and extend access to this innovative device to patients in the U.S.”

The Early Bird Bleed Monitoring System includes a vascular access sheath with embedded sensors that are designed to detect and monitor bleeding from a blood vessel accidentally injured during endovascular procedures, such as a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), large bore hemodynamic support device placement, or other complex cardiovascular interventions, where the femoral artery or vein is used to obtain vascular access. The technology was invented at the Texas Heart Institute.
