BrainSpace

BrainSpace develops automated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) management systems for acute care settings. The company's flagship product, the Intellidrop, automates external ventricular drainage (EVD) and lumbar drain management at the bedside, replacing labor-intensive manual monitoring with robotic precision and closed-loop automation. The Intellidrop features a wearable transducer that eliminates the need for manual leveling or zeroing, reducing nursing workload while improving patient experience and clinical outcomes. The system combines continuous sensing and gravity-based drainage principles trusted by neurosurgeons, enabling single-drop drainage control with personalized pressure or volume targets for each patient. The device generates high-frequency multimodal data that can be autonomously annotated in real-time, supporting research and AI training without manual data cleaning. BrainSpace's technology addresses CSF management for acute conditions including traumatic brain injury (TBI), hemorrhagic stroke, meningitis, post-neurosurgical care, and diagnostic evaluation for normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH). The company targets ICU settings where improved automation is expected to support patient mobilization, reduce length of stay, alleviate nursing staffing challenges, and expand access to critical CSF management.
