Alydia Health has raised fresh funds to support the US commercial launch of the suction device for the treatment of postpartum haemorrhage (PPH).

Called Jada System, the device stops postpartum haemorrhaging within a few minutes.

The company recently completed the pivotal PEARLE IDE Study of the system and is currently awaiting the market clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The $13.9m Series C financing round was led by AXA Investment Managers through the Impact Investing Strategy.

The company’s existing investors, including Global Health Investment Fund and Avestria Ventures, also participated in the round.

AXA Investment Managers Impact Investing head Jonathan Dean said: “Alydia Health’s device for postpartum haemorrhage has tremendous potential to improve outcomes for mothers and families around the world.

“We are proud to invest in some of the most innovative technologies that address major public health issues worldwide while generating attractive social and financial returns.
