Tanzen Medical
Tanzen Medical aims to improve the diagnosis and treatment management of sleep disorders by providing an in-home characterization of leg movements during sleep. Their core product, RestEaze, is a multi-sensor, ambulatory device that records, stores, and analyzes leg movements, assisting in the diagnosis and management of sleep-related disorders. The company targets a significant unmet medical need, as current methods like polysomnography are expensive and inaccessible for long-term monitoring. Tanzen Medical claims their solution offers a 70% improvement in diagnosis accuracy and an 80% improvement in treatment management compared to the standard of care, addressing issues like Periodic Leg Movements (PLMS) which are linked to serious health conditions. They are developing a complete end-to-end solution including a physician dashboard and a digital sleep diary.
