CARDINAL HEALTH LAUNCHES PROCEDURE PACKS FOR COSMETIC SURGERY

New Presource® surgical kits help surgery centers, hospitals improve staff efficiency, minimize cost and respond to increasing consumer demand for cosmetic surgery procedures


(HealthNewsDigest.com) - DUBLIN, Ohio, — Cardinal Health, a global provider of products and services that improve the safety and productivity of health care, today announced Presource® Standard Cosmetic-Surgery Packs – prepackaged kits that provide the core surgical components needed for common cosmetic surgery procedures.

The new procedure packs are available for liposuction, abdominoplasty, rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, facial rhytidectomy, breast augmentation, breast reduction and breast lift. Consumer demand for these procedures is growing at a rate of 12 percent annually, with Americans spending approximately $12.4 billion on cosmetic procedures in 2006.

“As the demand for cosmetic surgery procedures continues to grow, health-care providers must be focused on improving the quality and safety of patient care, while also improving the efficiency with which that care is delivered,” said Steve Inacker, president and general manager of Cardinal Health’s Presource® Products and Services business. “We’re excited to launch our new line of standard cosmetic surgery packs because they help surgery centers and hospitals standardize practices, streamline supply management and improve patient safety.”

By providing the standard, disposable components needed for specific cosmetic surgery procedures, the new Presource® procedure packs can decrease set-up time and help ensure the required supplies are consistently available. Additionally, these packs help surgery centers and hospitals more accurately contain procedure costs by reducing waste while saving time and ensuring that safe, cost-efficient, standard components are used in each procedure.

Cardinal Health’s Presource® team has been designing and adapting innovative, comprehensive supply chain management solutions that improve operational efficiency for more than 30 years. The Presource® team of trained clinicians works with each customer to first identify specific needs and challenges, and then tailors custom solutions to meet those needs.

As with all Presource® surgical procedure packs, custom configurations are also available. Hospitals and surgery centers interested in learning more about the company’s new cosmetic surgery procedure packs may contact Cardinal Health at 800-964-5227.
