Excessive prescribing of medication for infectious diseases negatively impacts patient outcomes.
Visby Medical is accelerating the delivery of fast and accurate, palm-sized PCR diagnostics to the point of care, and eventually for use at home.
The company’s proprietary technology development culminated in the world’s first instrument-free, single-use PCR platform that fits in your hand and rapidly tests for serious infections with nearly 100% accuracy. Originally developed for sexually transmitted infections, the company’s FDA-cleared, CLIA-waived Sexual Health Click Test for women returns accurate results within minutes. Visby also helped to fight the global pandemic via the Visby Medical COVID-19 Test, and its robust pipeline includes tests for other infectious diseases.
