Masimo Corporation - MASI STOCK NEWS

Masimo (NASDAQ: MASI) announced a study showing that its SpHb® noninvasive hemoglobin measurement demonstrated "acceptable accuracy and excellent correlation" with invasive laboratory tests. Conducted on 650 emergency department patients, the study highlighted the quick and cost-effective benefits of SpHb, with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.812. While the results suggest SpHb can assist in clinical decisions, it is not intended as a substitute for standard laboratory tests. Further research is needed to assess its impact on patient outcomes.

Masimo (NASDAQ: MASI) revealed a study in PLoS ONE showing that its Patient SafetyNet™ system significantly improved hospital rapid response team (RRT) efficacy. Conducted at King Saud Medical City, the research indicated that RRT activations rose post-implementation, while cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) incidents dropped from 3.3% to 1.95%. Additionally, the average length of hospital stay decreased, and overall mortality fell from 5.45% to 4%. The study concluded that automation through Masimo’s technology could enhance patient outcomes in clinical settings.

Masimo (NASDAQ: MASI) has announced the limited market release of Sepsis Index (Si™), an early warning solution for identifying potential sepsis in patients monitored with Masimo Patient SafetyNet™. This system integrates real-time physiological data to provide a sepsis risk score, allowing clinicians to detect and respond to patient deterioration more effectively. Sepsis affects approximately 1.7 million adults annually in the U.S. with significant mortality rates. The Sepsis Index aims to improve patient outcomes through timely interventions, although it is not FDA cleared.

Masimo (NASDAQ: MASI) has launched the full market release of its Hydration Index (Hi™), integrated within the Masimo W1™ watch. This advanced health-tracking wearable offers continuous pulse oximetry and hydration level monitoring, crucial for athletes and health-conscious individuals. The technology builds on Masimo's expertise in pulse oximetry, enabling users to assess hydration and physiological status in real-time. Notably, the product has not received FDA clearance for medical use in the U.S.

Masimo (NASDAQ: MASI) announced a controlled trial published in the Journal of the College of Physicians and Surgeons Pakistan, showing the benefits of its SpHb® hemoglobin monitoring technology in major surgeries. The study found that patients monitored with SpHb had significantly lower postoperative red blood cell transfusion rates (median 0 IUs for SpHb group versus 2 IUs for control; p=0.020) and higher hemoglobin levels in ICU (8.41 g/dL vs. 7.75 g/dL; p=0.033). Researchers emphasized that SpHb can enhance patient blood management, potentially reducing mortality and morbidity.
