FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - eTravelWire -- Lineus Medical is proud to announce its selection into the 2023 Fuel Accelerator Program.

With over a hundred applicants, Lineus Medical was selected as the only Arkansas based company, and only one of two US based companies to join the 8 companies in the 2023 cohort:
Vance Clement, CEO of Lineus Medical stated, "We are very proud to be recognized and chosen to participate in the 2023 Fuel Accelerator. Lineus Medical has had immense growth already this year, and we plan to continue growing through the connections with new hospitals and healthcare leaders that the Fuel Accelerator can provide. We have a great product, SafeBreak Vascular, that is designed to separate and protect peripheral IV lines when a damaging force is placed on the line. The Fuel Accelerator should help us jump start some business opportunities with hospitals in Northwest Arkansas."

SafeBreak® Vascular is a break-away connector that is designed to reduce the failure of peripheral IV lines and the negative cascade of events that occur after an IV is pulled out. Peripheral IV dislodgement is shown to occur 11% of the time according to the clinical literature and represents a cost of more than 5 billion annually in the US healthcare system.3, 4 When excessive force is placed on an IV line with a SafeBreak installed, SafeBreak is designed to separate and offload the force and protect the IV. Valves on each end of SafeBreak close upon separation to stop the flow of medication from the IV pump and to prevent blood loss on the patient side of the line. The SafeBreak separation will cause the IV pump to alarm, which alerts the nursing staff to check on the patient. The separated SafeBreak can be removed and a new sterile SafeBreak installed in a matter of minutes.3 This saves the nurse time, the hospital money on supplies and medicine, and most importantly saves the patient from an additional needlestick required with an IV restart.
