LeviSense Medical

What LeviSense Medical does

LeviSense Medical, Inc. is a Massachusetts-based medical technology company founded in 2019 that develops next-generation therapeutic support surfaces for the prevention and treatment of pressure injuries (pressure ulcers/bed sores). The company's core product is the Pro-Daptive SensorCell Flotation System, which uses proprietary SensorCell technology — hundreds of independently responsive 2.4-inch air cells that conform to a patient's body in real time, with programmable pressure from 0 to 70 mmHg in 2 mmHg increments and up to 5 inches of immersion. The system is controlled via a Pro-Daptive bedside monitor and offers features including Mobility Mode, Cavity Creation Mode, Heel Float, Dynamic Off-Loading, and independent microclimate airflow. The technology is protected by US Patents 12,642,725 and 8,572,783.

LeviSense's business model is asset-light: AKTC (Taiwan) manufactures the SensorCell components under a partnership, Blue Chip Medical Products assembles the finished devices at its US facility and serves as the exclusive US distributor, while AKTC handles worldwide ex-US distribution. Direct enterprise sales engagement also exists with the Veterans Health Administration, where LeviSense ran a multi-year Cooperative Research and Development Agreement across eight VA Medical Centers. The target customer segments are acute care hospitals, long-term and skilled nursing facilities, home healthcare settings, and VA facilities, addressing a US patient population of approximately 2.5 million pressure-injury cases annually at a system cost of roughly $26.8 billion.

The company is privately held and venture-backed (ICV Venture Engineering and Formation Venture Engineering are anchor investors), with cumulative disclosed funding of approximately $3.25 million. The ProDaptive SensorCell product achieved commercial launch in February 2026 via Blue Chip Medical Products at the NPIAP Annual Conference, and in June 2026 the company appointed veteran healthcare executive Shri Parikh (formerly EVP/President of Milliken Healthcare/OVIK Health) as CEO to lead commercialization and market expansion.

• Stryker: Stryker's Medical division includes therapeutic beds and surfaces that compete for the same ICU/acute care purchasing decisions. Large incumbent with deep hospital salesforce and integrated bed/surface offerings.
• Invacare: Invacare's bed and support surface portfolio (now operating through Motion Concepts and its hospital bed line) competes for long-term care and home care therapeutic surface contracts.

Direct peers

• Arjo: Arjo (formed from Getinge's Patient & Post-Acute Care business) is a direct competitor in therapeutic support surfaces and pressure injury prevention, including low air loss and alternating pressure systems. Closest European comp.
• Joerns Healthcare: Joerns is a focused wound care and therapeutic surface manufacturer competing in skilled nursing, long-term care, and home care — directly overlapping LeviSense's primary customer segments.
• Blue Chip Medical Products: Blue Chip is both LeviSense's exclusive US distributor and a competing manufacturer of therapeutic support surfaces. Their overlap in product category is direct, even as the SensorCell line is co-branded.
• Span-America (Savaria): Span-America (acquired by Savaria) manufactures therapeutic mattresses and overlays for pressure injury prevention. Direct US competitor in long-term care and home care segments.
• Drive DeVilbiss Healthcare: Drive DeVilbiss manufactures a broad line of therapeutic support surfaces and hospital beds, competing in the same pressure injury prevention category at generally lower price points.
• Talley Group: UK-based manufacturer of pressure area care products including alternating pressure and low air loss mattresses — competes in similar acute and community care settings.

Regional players

• Linet Group: Linet is a European-based manufacturer of hospital beds with integrated therapeutic surfaces, primarily competing outside the US but expanding globally — a relevant international peer for AKTC-led expansion.
