Perfusion Medical is an emerging biopharmaceutical company developing lifesaving, acute cardiovascular therapies to transform intensive care medicine, with a focus on shock and critical ischemic conditions. Its lead candidate, PM-208, is an IV drug designed to rapidly re-establish blood flow through tissue capillaries to resolve ischemia and enhance organ perfusion. Preclinical data suggest that PM-208 has the potential to improve survival outcomes, accelerate patient recovery, and reduce long-term comorbidities in conditions such as hemorrhagic shock, cardiogenic shock, and acute kidney injury.
