Pryor Medical Devices Raises $5MM in Series B Preferred Round

Funded in part by BriarPatch Partners LP, an affiliate of the Hunt Family of Companies, Pryor Medical Devices pivots from product development to commercialization.

San Antonio, TX, September 25, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Pryor Medical Devices (The REBOA CompanyTM), today announced it has closed a $5 million Series B preferred round to support the development of its flagship ER-REBOA™ Catheter for temporary occlusion of large vessels. While the company’s device has not been cleared for human use, it has been recently submitted to the FDA for regulatory approval.

“Pryor Medical Devices’ business model is very compelling. They are taking lessons discovered by military doctors at war, and using them to create business opportunities and save lives back home,” said Ray L. Hunt, executive chairman, Hunt Consolidated, LLC and Partner at BriarPatch. “We see Pryor Medical as a leader in the emerging field of developing minimally invasive endovascular solutions for trauma.”

“We have a world-class clinical and technical team working to save lives while creating compelling business opportunities,” said David Spencer, CEO of Pryor Medical Devices. “The ER-REBOA Catheter is a technology born as a lesson from war, which also addresses a large, inadequately met civilian need to temporarily occlude large blood vessels here at home.”
