Strategic Ventures LLC is working with Jason Hanft and the Defender team to help accelerate the growth and reach of their visionary Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU) patient wound care management platform. With over 20,000 patients engaged in their DFU platform to date, Defender is helping to solve a lifetime chronic health problem that affects millions of people around the world.
Jason Hanft and the team at Defender are building a patient-centered, full wound lifecycle management platform for diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), which affect more than 3.5 million people in the US alone (with nearly 1.5 million new DFUs every year). By treating DFUs as a chronic condition and not as a one-off occurrence, Defender's platform and products (like the Foot Defender, Smart Boot, Cloud 9 sandal, Defender Shoe, and Heel Defender) help to heal DFUs up to 60% faster and lower amputations and mortality rates. https://lnkd.in/e4599Yn6
