Upfront Diagnostics, the trading name of Pockit Diagnostics Ltd., develops and commercialises LVOne, a portable finger-prick blood test that measures GFAP and D-dimer biomarkers to help clinicians identify large-vessel occlusion stroke at the point of care. It is designed for ambulance and emergency-care triage, helping route patients to hospitals that can provide thrombectomy. The company reports UKCA and CE marking and is piloting pre-hospital deployment with London Ambulance Service.
