By GlobalDataBy providing clinicians with the tools to identify changes sooner and respond with confidence, the partnership aims to eliminate the need for invasive lines and reduce the reliance on bulky wires, thus enabling timely and accurate interventions.
THO operates as a division of Terumo Interventional Systems (TIS), which offers a suite of interventional devices that augment the predictive insights offered by THO’s ePRISM technology.
ePRISM supports medical professionals in pinpointing patient risk and optimising treatment strategies, whereas, the advanced tools from TIS enhance procedural efficiency.
This synergy is designed to empower clinicians with informed decision-making capabilities, leading to streamlined procedures, reduced hospital costs, and shorter recovery times.
TIS president Ghada Farah said: “Clinicians need reliable, non-invasive options for continuous monitoring, particularly in settings where invasive lines aren’t feasible or desired.
“Caretaker’s VitalStream technology fits our mission of delivering tools that support earlier intervention and more informed decisions, while also helping hospitals improve clinical workflows and patient safety.”
