Flora’s open-heart surgery was supposed to save her life, instead, it nearly ended it. While in the hospital, she contracted a multi-drug-resistant bacterial infection, and her condition rapidly declined. Her doctors, limited by current diagnostic methods for antibiotic susceptibility testing, were unable to pinpoint an effective treatment in time. Flora endured excruciating pain and fear, while her family watched helplessly, tormented by the inadequacy of the medical interventions. The improperly managed infection brought them to the brink of despair.

Ten years later and underwhelmed by the lack of improvement, Sophia, Flora’s daughter, took responsibility to develop a device that could quickly inform doctors how to best manage bacterial infections with personalized treatment options.

She founded ShanX Medtech with an innovative, yet simple idea of a product that could revolutionize the current standard of care in bacterial infection management.

A huge passion to develop the product and bring it to market, enabling doctors and healthcare facilities to better help patients and especially to stop patients suffering unnecessarily.

A team of dedicated experts was quickly assembled for this mission, viewing it as their service to the community to develop a product with care and integrity that will change each patient’s life.
