RightBio Metrics
RightBio Metrics was founded by Paul Gilbert MD, Board Certified in Emergency Medicine, and his father, Robert Gilbert MD, Board Certified in Gastroenterology in 2005. Dr. Paul Gilbert’s first-hand experience with tube misplacement and the frustration experienced in emergency medicine with uncertainty about treatment-critical metrics lead to a passion for developing more appropriate technologies. The innovations by the Dr. Gilberts, while leveraging widely acclaimed measurement practices, represent a revolution in the technologies that deliver such metrics – to enable better patient care and prevent severe accidents.
