Progress

  • Atapir has developed 8 algorithms, and has developed and tested four different generations of cameras and software systems.

  • Atapir has one patent for the AVD-M prototype (AVD- Audio-visual distraction) and has three patents pending

  • Atapir has received feedback from the FDA for a 510k pre-submission and will submit for FDA clearance in 2026

  • Atapir has conducted three clinical trials:

    • 130-patient clinical trial. Blood pressure measured in preoperative, (PACU) Post Anesthesia Care Unit, Intensive Care Unit and wards that use non-invasive blood pressure and an arterial line at the SF VA hospital. Publication pending.

    • 77-patient clinical study published in the journal Anesthesia in April 2025 demonstrating that effective pain recognition and treatment in perioperative environments reduce length of stay and decrease risk of delirium and chronic pain. Publication available here

    • 31 volunteers studied. AVD-M Respiratory Rate and Heart Rate compared to a finger pulse oximetry probe demonstrate an r2 of 0.88 and 0.98 respectively (r2 of >0.7 is a good correlation). Publication pending.
