About Profusa

Profusa develops implantable, tissue-integrated biosensors and associated reader technology designed to provide continuous, real-time monitoring of physiological biomarkers. Its platform uses a biocompatible, porous hydrogel sensor that is placed under the skin via a minimally invasive procedure and becomes perfused with tissue; an external optical reader interrogates the sensor to convert fluorescent or optical signals into quantitative measurements such as local tissue oxygen levels. The company’s approach emphasizes long-duration sensing from a single implanted device rather than repeated spot measurements.

The technology is being positioned to support a range of clinical and commercial applications, including chronic disease management, wound and post-surgical monitoring, and clinical research where continuous molecular-level data can improve decision-making.
