– 410 Medical Gains New Board Member as LifeFlow Commercialization Expands –
DURHAM, N.C., April, 25 2018 — 410 Medical, Inc., a medical device company focused on developing innovative technologies for the resuscitation of critically ill patients, today announced it has appointed John Tushar to the 410 Medical Board of Directors. John was recently named President, Global Franchises for Halyard Health. Prior to joining Halyard Health, John was President and General Manager of Teleflex Medical’s surgical division.
“We are thrilled to add John to our great team of Directors. John’s deep commercial and corporate development experience with medical devices will be an enormous asset as we continue to focus on the commercialization of LifeFlow in our target markets and evaluate new markets, products and strategic partnerships,” said Kyle Chenet, President and Chief Executive Officer at 410 Medical.
Early fluid resuscitation has been shown to significantly improve mortality, length of stay, and cost in patients with septic shock, but medical providers are often unable to achieve fluid delivery guidelines using traditional techniques. 410 Medical’s innovative device, LifeFlow, is an easy-to-use device for rapid and controlled fluid delivery that enables healthcare professionals to provide an immediate response to a critically ill patient. LifeFlow is FDA-cleared and actively used in more than 20 US hospitals. Positive hospital and clinician feedback is helping to accelerate 410 Medical’s ongoing commercialization within its target markets.
“I’ve been part of a number of great medical products in my career,” said John Tushar. “The best products are those that fit easily into a provider’s practice pattern and significantly improve patient outcomes. I believe that LifeFlow provides that opportunity.”
