More about Magnolia Medical Technologies
Magnolia Medical Technologies develops, manufactures and markets innovative blood and bodily fluid collection devices to facilitate significant improvements in the accuracy, consistency and predictability of critical laboratory tests.
Dr. Richard Patton, the company’s co-founder and Medical Director, invented and patented the Initial Specimen Diversion Technique (ISDT) and Initial Specimen Diversion Device (ISDD) for blood culture collection and contamination prevention, and authored the seminal peer-reviewed publication on this technique published in the Journal of Clinical Microbiology in 2010.
The company’s flagship product, Steripath Initial Specimen Diversion Device for blood culture collection and contamination prevention, has been clinically proven in 17 clinical studies including 5 peer-reviewed publications to virtually eliminate the preventable error of blood culture contamination and false positive results for the diagnosis of Sepsis – delivering a reduction in false positives of up to 92% with 12-month sustained contamination rates as low as 0.2% and an average annualized cost savings of ~$1M.
Magnolia is establishing the new standard for blood culture integrity and sepsis testing accuracy with a mission to change national blood culture collection guidelines and contamination benchmarks.
The company has amassed an intellectual property portfolio including more than 70 issued method, apparatus and design patents with more than 50 additional patent applications pending. The total potential market for Magnolia’s technology exceeds $2.0 billion annually.
