Truth in Signal
We never display data we can't trust. Lives depend on it.
Xavant Technology · South Africa · since 2003
So we democratize clinical intelligence by making it open, affordable and simple.
In practice that means quantitative neuromuscular monitoring that any hospital can afford, a single handheld that carries both AMG and EMG so the clinician chooses per patient, and an engine that other manufacturers build into their own monitors, so the same measurement reaches places our own devices never will.
Human First sits at the centre, because every decision starts with the patient on the table and the clinician beside them. Truth in Signal and Open by Design are the two values that hold that centre up.
We never display data we can't trust. Lives depend on it.
Our technology serves humanity, quietly and intuitively. It handles the complexity. The clinician handles her patient.
We win by invitation, not lock-in. Our engine runs inside other makers' monitors, and our results leave in HL7, FHIR and IHE.

Roche Janse van Rensburg and Corlius Birkill finished their post-graduate studies in bioengineering at the University of Pretoria in 1997. A few ventures later, in 2003, they founded Xavant Technology to take the guesswork out of how patients recover from anesthesia drugs. With several patents between them, they're still inventing in the same field.
