Earlier this year, we announced our exclusive distribution deal with Single Pass for their Kronos biopsy closure device, and with its recent FDA clearance, Mermaid Medical is ready to introduce the innovative cauterization device to U.S. healthcare professionals!
“I am thrilled that we are now able to bring the Kronos biopsy closure device to the U.S. market. This is a big step towards improving biopsy procedures and patient safety even further. We may also see a decrease in the need for post-procedure observation, making it a cost-effective solution as well.”
- Lars Vinther, CEO of Mermaid Medical.
The Innovative Post Biopsy Solution
The Kronos biopsy closure device is a single-use, electrocautery device that can cauterize deep tissue through a guide needle, making it a safe and effective solution to help reduce the risks of hemorrhage. Millions of people go through solid organ biopsy procedures each year, and being able to effectively seal biopsy channels can help lower the need for open surgical repair, blood transfusions, and extended hospital stays.
A Special Collaboration
We are proud of our partnership with Single Pass, and being their commercial partner and distributor on the U.S. market perfectly aligns with our commitment to help saving and improving patient lives. With Single Pass’ innovative cauterization device and our extensive distribution capabilities we are embarking on an important and exciting journey together.
To quote dedicated Single Pass CEO Bill Colone: “Together, we aim to revolutionize biopsy closure procedures and improve patient outcomes.”
