Vitalgo Systems

What Vitalgo Systems does

VitalGo Systems (VitalGo, Inc.) is a privately held medical device company founded in 2007 and headquartered in Miramar, Florida, that has invented the Total Lift Bed — described as the world's first bed capable of safely transitioning a patient from full supine to full standing position without leaving the bed. The platform underpins Intermittent Verticalization Therapy (IVT), an early-mobility and rehabilitation protocol used in ICUs for high-acuity patients including those on ECMO, IABP, Impella, and mechanical ventilation, as well as ARDS, burn, cardiac, neurological, and dependent patients. The flagship product, the Total Lift Bed V5, integrates bed exit alerts, an integrated patient scale, a low air loss mattress, and a full suite of standard ICU functions, and is supported by proprietary protocols including the Ramsey Protocol for ambulation of IABP patients.

VitalGo generates revenue through two channels: capital equipment sales of the V5, priced competitively against other high-acuity ICU beds, and equipment rentals starting at $150 per day, positioned around an immediate ROI case linked to reduced length of stay, lower mortality, and improved discharge outcomes. The company sells and rents directly to hospitals in all U.S. states and numerous international markets, and distributes globally through Agiliti (exclusive U.S. provider), Arjo, Paramount Beds, and USME. Its named customers include Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins Medicine, Kaiser Permanente, Mount Sinai, New York-Presbyterian, and Allegheny General Hospital, and its technology is referenced in the ELSO 2024 Guideline for Early Rehabilitation or Mobilization of Adult ECMO Patients. The company also operates VitalGo University, a clinical training platform, and the Tilt Talk podcast/web series, as supporting clinical-education channels.

Leadership is headed by CEO Ohad Paz and Executive Vice President Jarett Armstrong, with a small in-house clinical team including Jenna Hightower (Director of Clinical Strategy), Phillip Gonzalez, Rebecca Rimert, Aaron Thrush (Middle East clinical specialist), and Abby Rassat. No revenue, headcount, funding rounds, or parent-company relationships are disclosed in the available source materials.
