Siemens Healthineers and Avanos Medical Partner to Transform Outpatient Pain Management Solutions

Siemens Healthineers and Avanos Medical Forge Strategic Partnership to Revolutionize Pain Management

Siemens Healthineers and Avanos Medical, Inc. have entered a strategic co-marketing agreement aimed at transforming outpatient and interventional pain care through a cohesive ecosystem of imaging and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) technologies. This partnership emerges against the backdrop of a growing trend towards outpatient pain management, where healthcare providers increasingly prioritize efficient and cost-effective systems that enhance clinical outcomes. By aligning their expertise, Siemens and Avanos seek to deliver integrated solutions designed to improve accuracy, efficiency, and consistency in patient care.

The collaboration brings together Avanos Medical's renowned RFA technologies with Siemens Healthineers' advanced imaging capabilities, particularly their mobile C-arm systems like the Cios Select and Cios Flow. These systems promise to provide healthcare providers with the tools necessary to enhance procedural precision, allowing for more effective and efficient treatments in outpatient settings. Avanos Medical's CEO, Dave Pacitti, underscores the significance of this partnership, highlighting how the combined strengths of both companies can broaden access to cutting-edge pain management solutions. As healthcare facilities strive to meet the increasing demand for outpatient procedures, this alliance positions both firms at the forefront of innovation in pain management.

Targeting the U.S. market initially, the co-marketing agreement includes collaborative initiatives in education, sales training, and marketing efforts to highlight the clinical and operational advantages their combined technologies can offer. Christiana Gallagher and Felicia Kurz from Siemens Healthineers emphasize that these mobile imaging systems will not only enhance operational efficiency in outpatient facilities but will also significantly improve the quality of patient care. The partnership aims to empower ambulatory surgery centers, hospitals, and interventional pain practices with state-of-the-art tools to meet the evolving needs of pain management providers.

In addition to advancing outpatient care, Avanos Medical is committed to addressing critical healthcare needs beyond pain management. The company focuses on developing and marketing recognized medical device brands worldwide, holding strong positions across various product categories. Their dedication extends to offering essential nutritional support and minimizing opioid use, thereby facilitating patient recovery. As both companies move forward with this strategic collaboration, their shared vision for improving patient outcomes and operational efficiencies stands to reshape the landscape of outpatient pain management.
