Access Scientific intends to set the new, evidence-based standard for over-wire vascular access – The WAND^®. Accordingly, the company will encourage and support clinical studies of efficacy in all WAND applications. The focus will be on patient outcomes and healthcare worker safety. Over the coming months and years, expect to see the list of supporting clinical trials expand.
