Why We Care

EMT and ER teams have difficulties quickly and efficiently treating unresponsive, high-risk patients without a full medical history. 

 

  • There are 44+ different medical conditions that can lead to unresponsiveness

 

  • 12 million Americans are misdiagnosed each year

 

  • One study, 28% of 583 diagnostic mistakes were life threatening or resulted in death or permanent disability

 

  • A survey showed that 96% of physicians believed that diagnostic errors are preventable

 

  • Most doctors are reluctant to report diagnostic errors

 

If you are a high-risk patient, MicroMed may be for you.
