ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich., August 06, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--InfuSystem Holdings, Inc.

Under this agreement, InfuSystem will offer Smith+Nephew’s advanced RENASYS◊ EDGE negative pressure wound therapy system, an exciting new option in home-based care for patients living with chronic wounds. The RENASYS EDGE system is lightweight and compact allowing it to be easily carried or worn, featuring a discreet canister and operates quietly to not draw attention or disturb the patients’ daily activities.

We are excited about this new partnership, that will leverage InfuSystem’s unique Patient Services platform to deliver customized solutions. InfuSystem’s ability to wrap its high-value services around our partners’ products will quickly benefit and attract new revenue opportunities for both companies and more importantly giving more patients increased access to the new RENASYS EDGE technology."
