Read MoreHide Full Article
Baxter International Inc. (BAX - Free Report) recently announced that Hamilton Health Care System will now be the first health system in the United States to utilize the former’s new PrisMax system. This new and advanced technology is expected to enhance patient care.
For investor’s notice, Baxter’s innovative PrisMax system for managing acute kidney injury (AKI) has received the FDA approval and is available in the Unites States. This in turn will boost Baxter’s Acute Therapies profile.
PrixMax System at a Glance
The innovative PrisMax system has been created with the help of real-world input from more than 650 healthcare providers globally. The system provides advanced technology that can be used for the treatment of critically injured patients.
Notably, PrisMax is available in the intensive care units in more than 20 countries across Europe and Asia-Pacific. Per management, the company plans to bring additional markets on board through 2020.
Adoption of PrisMax System
With the adoption of the new innovative system, Hamilton Health Care expects to improve its critical care services that include the capability to offer treatment to those patients developing AKI. PrisMax system consists of new digital health features that will enable hospitals to connect the system to electronic medical record (EMR) platforms.
As a result, the nurses will have to spend less time the ICU to manually document treatment data, which in turn lower the risk of transcription errors.
Baxter’s Acute Therapies Profile Update
Baxter’s performance in acute therapies is being driven by improving utilization for CRRT globally, and increased demand for multi-organ support products. In fact, the second quarter 2019 performance primarily came on the back of ongoing rollout of the PrisMax next-generation technology for CRRT and Therapeutic Plasma Exchange.
For the Acute Therapies business, Baxter, which is a worldwide leading player in acute care, expects growth of approximately 7% to 8% on a year-over-year basis in 2019.
