11 Health

11 Health was a connected medical device company that developed a virtual healthcare ecosystem for ostomy patients. Its primary product, the Alfred SmartBag, utilized integrated sensors to monitor ostomy output and skin health in real-time, transmitting data via Bluetooth to a mobile app. The platform, named Alfred, provided patients and clinicians with analytics to prevent common complications such as dehydration and skin irritation, which often lead to hospital readmissions. Founded by patient advocate Michael Seres, the company aimed to improve the quality of life for the ostomy community through empathetic, data-driven care. Despite its innovative approach and commercialized products, the company entered voluntary liquidation in early 2023.
