Waegener’s cTreatment® Moves Patient Recovery Forward
Baar (Zug), Switzerland, September 21, 2011 /PR Newswire/ - Waegener congratulates
the Austrian Society for Orthopedics and Orthopedic Surgery with an outstanding
performance serving the Orthopedic community with these initiatives over the past 30
years and with the fact that it organizes the 30th ÖGO congress.
Since it’s establishment in 2003 Waegener has been focusing on research in the field of
energy exchange in tissue in a controlled way to predict and achieve a successful outcome
by reducing inflammation, swelling and pain. The Company underwrites the goals of the
ÖGO society and is a proud exhibitor and participant at the three-day meeting, taking
place in Linz, Austria.
Mr Levi Dewaegenaere, CEO and founder of Waegener: “Austria is a key market in terms
of orthopedic treatment research. Waegener is thus serving this country to bring our
cTreatments® to both orthopedic surgery as well as orthopedic trauma patients. We are
excited to present our cTreatments® for various indications at ÖGO.”
Chief Commercial Officer, Mr Wout van Loon and co-founder of Waegener continues:
“Orthopedic surgeons have been looking for standardized, controlled and protocoled ways
of reducing swelling and pain. Thanks to Waegener’s cTreatment® the surgeon can
normally operate the same day instead of having to wait for days for the swelling to be
reduced. Waegener provides the solution.“
cTreatment in comparison to conventional therapy offers patients the experience of less
pain and faster mobility after trauma. Nurses can take care of more patients at the same
time, patients are released sooner, both of which boost cost efficiency. cTreatment® thus
provides a win-win situation both to the hospital, the health insurance company, the
physical therapy practice and moreover the patient.
