DaxorCorporation Receives FDA Clearance for New Rapid, Lightweight, Blood Volume Analysis System
ManagementExpects High Demand Driven by Speed, Simplicity, and Clinical Precision
OakRidge, TN — August 7, 2025 – Daxor Corporation (NASDAQ: DXR), the global leader in blood volume measurement technology, today announces FDA 510(k) clearance (K251087) for its patent-pending next-generation rapid, compact, hand-held, lab-based Blood Volume Analyzer (BVA). The new Daxor BVA^™^ device quantifies a patient’s blood volume against patient-specific norms, enabling precise fluid management across a broad spectrum of clinical conditions affecting millions of patients each year.
“For decades, clinicians without access to BVA have been forced to estimate a patient’s blood volume status using indirect, often invasive, or imprecise methods,” said Michael Feldschuh, Daxor’s President and CEO. “This critical knowledge gap has impacted treatment decisions across numerous medical specialties. Daxor’s next generation BVA device changes the game by delivering even faster, precise blood volume data anywhere there is access to a laboratory—from the hospital to the outpatient clinic.”
Volume derangement is a silent crisis driving a multi-billion annual healthcare burden. Conditions such as heart failure (over seven million patients and one million hospitalizations annually), critical care and sepsis (7.4 million admissions), dialysis, surgical blood loss, traumatic injury, and syncope all depend on accurate fluid management.
“Our diagnostic innovation is a game-changer for fluid management,” said John L. Jefferies, MD, MPH, MBA, Daxor’s Chief Medical Officer. “By using the gold standard indicator tracer dilution technique, we can overcome the inaccuracies of traditional clinical assessments, especially in patients with multiple and complex conditions. BVA provides precise, objective data, empowering value-based care through better outcomes and fewer hospitalizations.”
In peer-reviewed studies, blood volume analysis guided care was associated with reduced heart failure one-year mortality by 86%, (p<0.001). It also demonstrated shorter hospital stays, 56% fewer readmissions, and significantly lower healthcare costs. Data from a randomized control trial in the ICU also showed significant benefit with BVA-guided care, lowering mortality by 66% in a cohort of predominantly septic/ARDS patients (p<0.03).
Building upon the success of its predecessor, the Daxor BVA-100^™^ , this next generation analyzer redefines efficiency enabling far broader use in clinical settings where resources are limited:
● 3x Faster: Provides critical results in one-third the time
● Lightweight: Moves easily between laboratory settings, weighs just 7 lbs.
● Highly Accurate: Delivers laboratory-grade diagnostic precision
The newly FDA-cleared rapid, hand-held, modular, lab-based diagnostic enables physicians in cardiology, nephrology, critical care, hematology, emergency medicine, and primary care to tailor treatment with confidence. By accurately measuring volume status, clinicians can avoid the risks of hypovolemia—including tissue hypoperfusion, acute kidney injury, hypotension, syncope, and organ damage—as well as hypervolemia, which can lead to heart failure decompensation, accelerated disease progression, and further organ damage. This new system was developed under contract with the U.S. Department of Defense, specifically the U.S. Army and the Defense Health Agency.
Research from leading institutions—including Duke University Medical Center, the Cleveland Clinic, the Mayo Clinic, and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs—has proven the utility of BVA-guided care. This approach has been shown to reduce mortality, readmissions, and hospital length of stay. With over 75,000 tests shipped and more than 50 years of groundbreaking research, including collaborations with some of leading experts in cardiology care, Daxor is redefining precision diagnostics.
