New FDA-registerred incontinence solutions. Sanitis and Consure Medical Announce Long-Term Partnership for the sales and distribution of Consure’s incontinence solutions. Many of you are you used to seeing our posts about EVS and productivity enhancement tools, but what you may not realize is that Sanitis is also a distributor of medical supplies and innovative medical devices that provide better patient outcomes and safety. It is for this reason that Sanitis is excited to announce that, due to our remarkable growth over the last 13 years, we are expanding our product portfolio through our recent agreement with Consure Medical to offer their novel fecal and urinary incontinence solutions. Consure Medical's ground-breaking automated fecal management system, Qoramatic, and their superior female urinary incontinence system, Qivi, set new standards in their product categories. Qoramatic is an FDA-registered automated system that manages fecal incontinence with reduced need for nurses' interventions by 90%. Qoramatic also provides a safer and more comfortable solution for patients with greatly reduced leakage, odor, and chances for the spread of HAI's. Qivi on the other hand is an EXTERNAL female catheter that eliminates the problems inherent in other catheters by reducing the chances of urinary tract infections, providing a better fit for more patients, less leakage, and less skin irritation and ulceration. The partnership extends Saniti’s portfolio into the medical incontinence markets, a key category for the company, and is designed to significantly expand Consure’s sales and distribution to continue the brand's accelerated growth. Through this partnership, we will further strengthen our efforts in order to promote the business of both companies by leveraging our respective strengths and services.
