Ivenix Establishes Clinical Advisory Board to Promote Infusion Safety and Technology Innovation
North Andover, MA, December 18, 2017 – Ivenix today announced the establishment of a clinical advisory board to help inform future strategic development along with clinical direction and innovation priorities to drive improved infusion safety. Board members’ collective expertise will provide Ivenix with a firsthand perspective on infusion delivery challenges that lead to medication errors, while aligning the company with evolving market needs.
Comprised of experts with deep infusion therapy experience in key clinical and executive roles, the advisory board will meet regularly under the direction of Ivenix Chief Nursing Officer Susan Niemeier. Their shared clinical voice will serve as a way to transform how Ivenix addresses the market and communicates with the clinical community. The board will examine infusion practice trends and proven strategies that lead to improved outcomes and safer IV practices, while providing strategic input for technology development and innovation advancement.
“Ivenix is dedicated to eliminating infusion-related patient harm, and context is key for meaningful improvements in patient outcomes,” Niemeier comments. “Minimizing patient exposure to medication errors demands an understanding of complex infusion workflows and hands-on challenges faced by clinicians every day. Ivenix recognizes the invaluable role of high quality clinician-technology interaction and is committed to supporting our end users. The advisory board represents another important step in achieving that goal.”
