Networking, particularly through LinkedIn, played a crucial role in his business development, helping him connect with mentors, partners, and potential collaborators. A key topic of discussion was Patrick’s work on a non-invasive blood pressure device, X-Pulses. He identified a gap in emergency medicine where medical professionals struggled to detect pulses during critical situations. Despite initial progress, the project faced challenges, particularly in funding and technical expertise. Patrick stressed the importance of securing a skilled co-founder and continuous iterations in medical device development to navigate these obstacles. The conversation also delved into the growing role of AI in healthcare, particularly in radiology. Patrick introduced ClearSight AI, a tool designed to assist frontline providers by offering a second opinion on X-ray readings. While not intended to replace radiologists, the AI-powered application enhances diagnostic accuracy, especially in resource-limited settings. Patrick and Til discussed the product-market fit approach, where ClearSight AI is being developed and refined based on user feedback before a full-scale launch. The upcoming MVP release aims to validate market demand and secure either external funding or a self-funded strategy. Til concluded by encouraging listeners to explore ClearSight AI and engage with EMcentric.org for further networking and insights into emerging health technologies and wellness.
