The expanded partnership brings integrated patient monitoring technologies into outpatient settings as more procedures shift away from hospitals.
Medtronic and Mindray are extending their partnership on patient monitoring technology beyond hospitals into ambulatory surgery centers, aiming to support clinicians and patients across inpatient and outpatient settings in the United States.
This alliance is designed to simplify access and integration of advanced monitoring solutions from both companies, helping reduce costs while enhancing patient care.
“This expanded collaboration with Medtronic underscores our shared vision to make advanced monitoring technology more accessible across all points of care,” says Wayne Quinn, president of Mindray North America, in a release. “As more procedures shift to outpatient settings, we’re proud to deliver the same level of advanced monitoring and clinical insight that hospitals rely on, helping ASCs provide exceptional care with efficiency and confidence.”
Mindray North America and the Medtronic Acute Care & Monitoring business have worked together previously in acute care settings, particularly in perioperative environments. As part of that collaboration, Mindray integrated Medtronic’s BIS four-channel brain monitoring system and INVOS regional oximetry technology into its platforms, allowing clinicians to monitor depth of anesthesia and regional tissue oxygenation during critical care and perioperative procedures.
“Every patient deserves reliable, high‑quality monitoring no matter where their procedure takes place,” says Blake Tatum, vice president of US commercial for Medtronic Acute Care & Monitoring, which is part of the company’s medical surgical portfolio, in a release. “By integrating industry-leading Medtronic technologies like Microstream capnography, BIS brain monitoring, Nellcor pulse oximetry, and INVOS regional oximetry into Mindray’s innovative platforms, we’re making advanced monitoring easier to adopt in ASCs so that clinicians can focus on what matters most: the patient in front of them.”
Mindray North America is actively integrating next-generation Medtronic monitoring technologies, including the upcoming INVOS 7100 system and next-generation BIS systems. Furthermore, the companies will utilize their integrated distributor networks “to facilitate a more efficient and economical procurement process for Mindray monitoring systems featuring all Medtronic technologies across healthcare systems nationwide,” according to a release from Mindray.
