MERIT MEDICAL SYSTEMS INTRODUCES FIRST STEP PREP KIT

January 19, 2005

Merit Medical Systems, a manufacturer and marketer of proprietary disposable products used primarily in cardiology and radiology procedures, has announced the release of its First Step prep kit. The First Step fills a void in the market by offering prep materials used in various hospital procedures in one convenient package. Instead of searching for and gathering items such as solutions, gloves, razors and sponges, nurses and clinicians will have everything they need to prep a patient in one sterilized container.
