Built for the critical moment

The line fails. The medication stops.

Intraosseous access fails in the field for two reasons: the arm moves during handoffs, and the landmark is hard to find under stress. We build the hardware for both.

The problem

Two root causes, and nothing on the market built to address either.

01

The arm moves.

Ground to gurney. Gurney to truck. Compressions running the whole way, then truck to hospital and hospital to bed. Every handoff is a chance for the arm to shift, and a humeral line that was seated correctly gets bent or dislodged. The site is compromised and the medication stops reaching the patient. Securement today means tape, gauze, or a spare hand that nobody has.

02

The landmark hides.

Finding the greater tubercle by palpation, at speed, on a patient of unknown build, is a skill that degrades under stress. Angle matters as much as position, and neither is verifiable in the moment.

Restraint-free stabilization, with compressions still running.

Every device is specified for the back of a moving vehicle, not a procedure room. Single-operator application, no additional hands, no interruption to compressions.

Who built it

Founded by a paramedic who saw too many failures that happened not from a lack of skill, but from a lack of solutions.

Seth Illu, MD, inventor, founder and chief executive, set out to build devices that narrow the gap between failure and success. T-Band was the first: the flagship answer to a securement problem nobody had solved. Emergency physician, former paramedic, EMS Fellow at the University of Utah. The team around him has spent more than 20 years bringing medical devices to market, through multiple exits.
