Aplion’s President Brad Stewart was quoted as saying: “We are very pleased to have IHC, that is so well know and respected for its excellent healthcare analytics, give their support to Aplion and the Aplion Topical Delivery System.’
The Aplion Topical Delivery System allows the Physician to Individualize the treatment of chronic wounds with a portable device about half the size on your cell phone. This completely device automatically treats the patient wound for up to 7 days with little to no interaction necessary for the patient
Jackie Millard Vice President and Chief Invest officer at IHC said “Aplion’s Wound Care device shows great promise in treating difficult to heal wounds while reducing costs and this is exactly the type of product concept we would like to encourage with our investment”
In addition to empowering the physician to select the best possible treatment for each patients needs the Aplion TDS ensures compliance with the treatment plan by virtue of its automated nature says Stewart. With IHCs support we hope to make the device available to physicians and patients as soon as possible.
