Founded in 2018, the Moyamoya Foundation (aka MoyaMoya Foundation Co) is a disease focused 501(c)(3) non-profit foundation. Moyamoya vasculopathy is a rare, progressive group of diseases in which the main arteries supplying the brain with blood (the internal carotid arteries and intracranial branches) narrow over time and collateral vessels called “moyamoya vessels” develop as an attempt to compensate for the lack of blood flow. Moyamoya patients are at increased risk for stroke, among other neurological complications. Currently, the typical intervention for moyamoya patients is revascularization surgery.

We recently launched the “Global Moyamoya Patient Registry”, a collective effort to gather comprehensive data about this rare disease. Patients can securely share important data such as, demographics, symptoms, treatments, family history, and unique experiences of living with a rare disease, such as delays in diagnosis, misdiagnosis, and travel considerations for specialty care. This collection of data will be used by researchers to improve outcomes for patients.

Marking 20 years in 2024 as a global innovator in respiratory and oxygen-related scientific research and advanced technologies. The team collaborates each day with customers, innovation leaders, industry, hospital, and military partners in more than 19 countries and in 65+ research institutes, while pushing the boundaries of what’s technologically possible in interoperability, remote or autonomous delivery and the use of AI, and developing solutions that can transform vascular diagnostics through arterial blood gas control. Drawing on two decades of pioneering scientific and engineering innovations that address the needs of health systems and providers, Thornhill Medical is unlocking tomorrow’s medical technology solutions, today.

Thornhill Medical manufactures RespirAct Clinical which is a computer-controlled gas blender used to control arterial CO2 and O2 in spontaneously breathing participants. Changing the partial pressure of CO2 and O2 in the blood is done to stimulate blood flow responses in organs which can then be monitored using imaging technology (i.e. TCD or MRI). Monitoring blood flow response to blood gas changes in these organs reveals aspects related to their vascular beds. There are many potential applications for this technology including understanding the mechanisms of injury in stroke patients.
