BioDerm Announces New Partnership with CellMark Medical, a Division of CellMark AB

LARGO, Fla., Jan. 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today BioDerm^®, Inc. announced the launch of their new partnership with CellMark Medical to bring the next generation of urinary management, securement and skin protection devices into select Asian markets. BioDerm, Inc. is the manufacturer of the Men's Liberty™ and Safe n'Dry^® Male Urinary Devices, the next generation hydrocolloid-based external catheters that reduce the risk of developing urinary tract infections commonly associated with indwelling catheters¹ and provide a safe, skin-friendly seal for 24 hours or more.  Because of their occlusive seal and noninvasive design, they reduce the risk of catheter associated urinary tract infections, or CAUTIs, and skin macerations and injuries associated with the use of adult diapers or condom catheters when used for incontinence².  In addition, BioDerm's CathGrip^® line of medical device securement products can reduce the instances of Medical Device-Related Hospital Acquired Pressure Ulcers (HAPUs). 

"We are excited to be working with CellMark Medical to improve the quality of care that Asian patients receive in hospitals today.  We look forward to explosive growth in highly populous markets that have increasing standards of care and wealth," says BioDerm's President, Gaet Tyranski.
