More Medical Device Awards: This time, cardioPAT by Haemonetics

[Click on Post Title for Link to External Article]

MassMEDIC has been giving more awards now. Awards are a great PR for the companies receiving them, and a boost for aspiring entrepreneurs.

Haemonetics provides a system called cardioPAT that promises to preserve blood lost during surgery and infuse it back to the patient once the surgery is complete.

A very useful device indeed. There is a huge market for medical devices that serve to help increase the efficiency of surgeries in several indirect ways. One other device that comes to mind is PerClose, now a part of Abbott Vascular Devices.

Quite an inspiration for engineers looking for unique, niche opportunities.
