CleanCision Wins Readers’ Choice Award in MDEA Competition


There was much pomp and circumstance at the Medical Design Excellence Awards Tuesday as the best technologies were honored at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York. For one technology, however, it was a strong call of validation.

 

CleanCision, earned the overall Reader’s Choice Award, which spans all categories in the competition. The active cleansing technology also earned the 2018 Medical Device Excellence Award Bronze Medal in the ER and OR Tools Category. CleanCision was developed by San Carlos, CA-based Prescient Medical.

 

“We’re thrilled and we’re honored for validation of what we’re doing,” Jeremy Koehler, director of R&D and co-founder, of Prescient Surgical, told MD+DI. “It’s always a journey to get your product on the market. I think the success that we’ve enjoyed and the success really validates it, is the fact that we have worked hard with a lot of people on the way. We have made intentional strides to develop a product that makes sense and it’s simple and helps improve people’s lives.”

 

The technology continuously clears harmful bacteria from surgical incisions by combining wound protection and irrigation into an intuitive and easy-to-use retraction system. Unlike traditional methods, which cannot continuously and consistently clear contamination from the surgical site, CleanCision has been shown to reverse and reduce these pervasive sources of infection, clearing harmful bacteria throughout surgery when the threat of wound contamination is at its highest.
