> QinFlow's PressSure holds standard pressure bags at a set level during blood and IV infusion. For biomed teams, the maintenance spec is the headline.

## Key points

- The claims so far are design claims and an award shortlist; the signal worth watching is whether QinFlow or early adopters publish in-service data on reinflation time saved.

Pressure bags have run on the same loop for decades: inflate, watch the gauge, come back and inflate again. QinFlow wants to end that loop. PressSure is a compact, lightweight, battery-powered device designed to simplify pressure management during blood and IV fluid delivery. A clinician connects it to a standard pressure bag and selects the desired pressure level, and the device maintains it.

24x7 Magazine's coverage summed up the unit as designed with no scheduled calibration or proprietary consumables. Automating a manual reinflation task helps whoever is standing at the bedside or kneeling in the back of an ambulance. The maintenance profile decides whether a hospital's clinical engineering team, or an EMS agency's equipment manager, sees it as a simple purchase or one more asset to track.

## Nothing to calibrate, nothing proprietary to stock

QinFlow says PressSure needs no proprietary consumables, no scheduled calibration and no preventive maintenance. The company presents this as a way to keep equipment service demands down over the device's life.

The device offers three fixed presets, not a continuous dial. QinFlow says it built PressSure with input from clinicians in hospitals, ground EMS, helicopter EMS and military medicine. For operators who work across those settings, a compact, battery-powered design could matter most.

## From warming blood to holding pressure

QinFlow is best known for its Warrior family of blood and IV fluid warmers, which the PR Newswire release says are used across ground EMS, HEMS, hospital and military settings. CEO Ariel Katz calls PressSure a natural extension of the Warrior and Warrior lite platforms. He says the company helped take the pressure off fluid warming and is now "taking pressure off pressure management."

COL. (Ret.) John Holcomb, MD, chairman of the board at QinFlow, frames the clinical case around attention. In high-acuity care, he argues, clinicians are juggling physiology, treatment priorities, team communication and equipment, often while tired, and even simple repetitive chores use up some of that limited capacity. In his view, removing one recurring task has value in those settings.

## An award shortlist ahead of field data

The benefits QinFlow describes, including fewer manual interventions and lighter service demands, are manufacturer design claims.

The read gets confirmed or broken in service. Reports from early hospital or EMS adopters on service tickets and hands-on bag management could show whether the maintenance pitch has earned its place in the headline.
