The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded Kilele Health Inc. a $539,041 Project Grant under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.837) to develop a factory-calibrated continuous multi-modal molecular monitor for heart failure patients. The proposed device would enable remote monitoring of critical biomarkers such as NT-proBNP and potassium levels, with the goal of improving treatment management, reducing hospital readmissions, and optimizing care delivery in ambulatory and home settings. This innovative project aims to create a skin-insertable sensor strip capable of continuously measuring these key cardiovascular biomarkers, and to demonstrate a scalable batch fabrication process for the sensors. Initial animal testing is planned to validate the performance of the monitoring system. The expected outcomes of this work will support subsequent Phase 2 SBIR efforts focused on human testing, wearable product development, and initiating the regulatory approval process.
