Premier Purchasing Partners, the group purchasing unit of Premier healthcare alliance, has awarded a three-year contract to ArjoHuntleigh to provide vascular compression therapy systems, designed for the prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

The contract, which will be effective from 1 December 2012, will allows Premier members to take advantage of special pricing and terms pre-negotiated by Premier for ArjoHuntleigh’s range of Flowtron vascular compression therapy systems.

ArjoHuntleigh sales director Dan Raffensberger said the company is committed to provide vascular compression therapy that helps reduce the significant impact of DVT, while increasing efficiencies and cost savings.

"We are very excited about this opportunity to provide Premier members with our proven vascular compression therapy solutions," Raffensberger added.
