Access Technology, Inc., an emerging leader in the development of
vascular access devices and products for the prevention and treatment
of vascular access complications to include catheter-related bloodstream
infections (CRBSI) and the eradication of biofilm, announced today
the appointment of Mr. Ken Brown to the position of Catheter Product
Manager. For the past twenty seven years Mr. Brown has been involved
in virtually all aspects of the operations side of business which
has included planning, designing and setting up manufacturing facilities,
their processes and related equipment. Ken has been the Project Lead
Engineer in the development and implementation of both new and existing
products.
Ash Access Technology has several announced and unannounced catheter
patents and projects advancing through the development pipeline which
Ken will now be leading. His eighteen years of experience working
with major medical device organizations such as Surgical Laser Technologies,
Puritan Bennett-Nelcor, Cogent and most recently Boston Scientific
will be a significant asset to the organization. While at Boston
Scientific, Ken was a Senior Engineer where he played a key role
in managing the design and manufacturing of multiple catheter-related
and ablation products. Ken has a BS degree in Industrial Technology,
an AAS in Mechanical Design and is certified as a Six Sigma Green
Belt.
"It was very appealing to join Ash Access Technology, Inc.
because of the excitement of working in an entrepreneurial culture
and the opportunity to make products that would improve the lives
of patients," explained Ken Brown. "There has been limited
innovation in the hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis catheter markets
recently and the designs in the Ash Access catheter portfolio have
the potential to improve things significantly, for both the patient
and caregiver."
Ash Access Technology, Inc. is a privately-held
company founded to develop antimicrobial and vascular access technologies,
devices and methodologies to combat the deadly and expensive problem
of catheter-related bloodstream infections, with an emphasis on prevention.
Dr. Stephen A. Ash, Chairman and Director, Research and Development,
is a practicing Nephrologist with the Arnett Clinic in Lafayette,
Indiana, and is a world-recognized researcher and patent holder in
extracorporeal devices, sorbent chemistry, and vascular and peritoneal
access devices. Ash Access Technology is located in Lafayette, Indiana
in the INOK Business Center.
