Concentric Medical has entered into a co-marketing agreement with InTouch Health to facilitate the advancement of stroke care in the US.
Concentric Medical and InTouch Health said that they will work with hospitals to create centers of excellence for treating acute ischemic stroke, developing comprehensive programs that offer patients the broadest range of options in acute stroke intervention.
Concentric Medical provides Merci Retrieval Systems, as well as tools, resources and physician training to help hospitals provide care for patients suffering from ischemic stroke. InTouch Health provides Remote Presence technology, which is a telemedicine solution combining the power of robotics, wireless and the internet to achieve full physician coverage for patients that present to the hospital with acute stroke symptoms.
Maria Sainz, president and CEO of Concentric Medical, said: "Concentric Medical is excited to team with InTouch Health to bring about real change in the way hospitals address the care of acute ischemic stroke and extends the reach of their growing stroke networks. Prompt access to physicians who can provide all interventional options including Concentric's Merci Retrieval System is a critical component in the effective treatment of this disease."
