Portfolio & pipeline

The pipeline.

Devices and tools at every stage — born at the bedside, validated in simulation, and protected where protection matters.

KM-01 · AIRWAYSimulation evidence stage

Temple Laryngoscope

The soiled airway — blood, vomit, secretions — is where video laryngoscopy fails and patients die. The Temple Laryngoscope is an oxygenating video laryngoscope blade with an integrated high-velocity, lens-clearing oxygen jet: the camera stays clear, and the jet delivers oxygen where it’s needed most.

The device concept was published in Cureus (2026). A randomized, blinded simulation study — Temple Laryngoscope versus standard video laryngoscopy in a simulated hematemesis airway — is under review.

Exchangeable Catheter for Fluid Collection

A sheath system that lets clinicians exchange catheters without losing access — reducing repeat punctures and the risks that come with them. Co-invented; U.S. provisional patent application filed 2022.

Pediatric Delivery Design — Guise Medical

Founded and led design at Guise Medical LLC (2021–2023): pediatric products designed, simulated, and manufactured to reduce children’s anxiety during medication administration. Iterated through Fusion 360 CAD, Blender, and COMSOL multiphysics simulation — the same toolchain behind every Kathero device. Guise Medical has since concluded operations.
