Raising the Bar in Intensive Care: CEO Frank Gehres as Guest on MedTech Gurus Podcast
In the latest MedTech Gurus podcast, Frank Gehres, CEO of Advanced Medical Balloons (AMB), explains how AMB is transforming daily clinical practice in intensive care units (ICUs) with a new generation of balloon catheters. His message is clear: true innovation often starts where others stop looking.
“No stool in the bed changes everything,” says Gehres – and he means far more than just improved hygiene. These next-generation catheters reduce infection risk, relieve the burden on nursing staff, shorten ICU stays, and restore dignity to patients.
In his conversation with host Tom Hickey, Gehres shares insights into:
-
the founding story of AMB
-
the technology behind ultra-thin, air-filled polyurethane balloons
-
clinical trials with outstanding results (90% leakage prevention!)
-
go-to-market strategy and hospital access approaches
Tune in to learn how Advanced Medical Balloons became the market leader in fecal management in Germany – and how the team is now entering the U.S. market.
