SANUWAVE to Attend a Total of Eight Medical Conferences in the Fourth Quarter of 2019 Supported by Symposiums, Posters, and KOLs – GlobeNewswire

SUWANEE, GA, Sept. 13, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- SANUWAVE Health, Inc.(OTCQB: SNWV),an emerging medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of noninvasive, biological response activating devices in regenerative medicine, is excited to announce the following conference plans for the fourth quarter consisting of 8 medical conferences.

SANUWAVE is very excited to be exhibiting and presenting at 8 of the top Wound Care trade seminars as we exit 2019. Since our FDA Clearance we have had increasing demand for the dermaPACE system. There is much the team has accomplished and we are pleased to showcase these accomplishments at the upcoming conferences. We have expanded our published peer reviewed articles. We have increased the number of posters by supporting further research within the wound care community. Given that our Pulsed Acoustic Cellular Expression (PACE) therapy is relatively new to market, education is a must and has subsequently become increasingly important. To assist with learning, we have begun to sponsor more symposiums at various trade shows. These are intended to introduce clinicians to the dermaPACE system and allow for an open dialog with KOLs using the device currently. We are very excited about a very busy schedule as increasing awareness and interest is driving clinician demand, said Kevin Richardson, CEO.
