AMT joins Midwest Pediatric Device Consortium
Cleveland, Ohio, October 18, 2023 – Applied Medical Technology, Inc. (AMT) is thrilled to announce our collaboration with the Midwest Pediatric Device Consortium in their mission to revolutionize pediatric medical device development.
Pediatric healthcare is a field that demands unique solutions, as children’s physiology, growth, and healthcare needs differ significantly from adults. These differences often result in a shortage of medical devices approved for pediatric use, leaving young patients with limited options.
The Midwest Pediatric Device Consortium, generously supported by a $6.95 million grant from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), is spearheading innovative efforts to bridge this gap. This visionary consortium is led by dedicated investigators from Nationwide Children’s Hospital and Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.
Our partnership with this dynamic group is rooted in a shared commitment to developing, producing, and commercializing cutting-edge pediatric medical devices. Together, we aim to enhance the quality of care and improve the lives of children who deserve the best in medical technology.
