GE Healthcare of Chalfont St. Giles, U.K., has signed an agreement with I-Flow of Lake Forest, CA, covering the integration of compact ultrasound technology with anesthesiology devices.
The companies have agreed to conduct a multicenter prospective randomized clinical study on the use of ultrasound for the placement of continuous peripheral nerve blocks. I-Flow will initiate the study, which will be designed to measure the effectiveness of using GE's compact ultrasound scanners for making nerves easier to find when I-Flow's ON-Q C-bloc device is being used.
