Avacen Medical Wins CE and Health Canada Approval for Pain Treatment Device

Avacen Medical has received a CE mark and Health Canada approval for its Avacen 100.

The device infuses heat into the circulatory system to provide muscular relaxation and increases circulation to provide pain relief.

Avacen is approved in the EU for this indication in addition to the temporary relief of widespread pain associated with fibromyalgia.

The company intends to apply to Health Canada to add the treatment of fibromyalgia widespread pain to match the EU approvals. — Cynthia Jessup
