Siemens Healthineers and Avanos Medical Team Up to Transform Outpatient Pain Management
Siemens Healthineers announces a strategic co-marketing agreement with Avanos Medical, Inc., aimed at revolutionizing outpatient and interventional pain care. This collaboration seeks to create an integrated ecosystem of imaging technologies and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) systems that will enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of pain management procedures. As the healthcare landscape shifts towards more outpatient services, the demand for innovative solutions that improve workflow and clinical outcomes becomes increasingly crucial. This partnership addresses that need, providing healthcare providers with a comprehensive toolkit designed to streamline operations and elevate patient care standards.
The partnership leverages Avanos Medical’s expertise in RFA technology alongside Siemens Healthineers’ advanced imaging solutions. According to Avanos Medical's CEO, Dave Pacitti, the union of these capabilities allows healthcare providers to achieve greater procedural precision, ultimately facilitating access to advanced pain management options for patients. This is particularly significant as outpatient surgery centers and interventional practices increasingly seek solutions that are both effective and cost-efficient. By integrating these technologies, the collaboration aims to enhance the quality and consistency of patient care, marking a notable advancement in the field of pain management.
Siemens Healthineers' mobile C-arm systems, such as the Cios Select and Cios Flow, play a pivotal role in this initiative, offering enhanced imaging capabilities to ensure accurate procedural performance. Christiana Gallagher and Felicia Kurz from Siemens Healthineers emphasize that these mobile systems are designed to improve operational efficiency in outpatient facilities, thereby contributing to superior patient outcomes. The co-marketing agreement will initially focus on the U.S. market, where both companies will engage in joint education, sales training, and marketing efforts to highlight the clinical and operational benefits of their combined technologies.
In addition to this partnership, Avanos Medical, based in Alpharetta, Georgia, continues to address critical healthcare needs by developing innovative medical devices with a focus on nutritional support and the reduction of opioid use in patient recovery. The company is recognized for its strong market presence across multiple medical device categories, which further complements its collaboration with Siemens Healthineers.
This strategic partnership not only underscores the commitment of both companies to improve healthcare delivery but also reflects a broader trend in the industry towards integrated solutions that enhance patient care while addressing operational challenges faced by healthcare providers.
