Terumo Health Outcomes and Medis Medical Imaging Announce Strategic Partnership to Enhance Cardiovascular Care
Terumo Health Outcomes (THO) and Medis Medical Imaging have announced a strategic partnership in the United States to enhance cardiovascular care. The collaboration combines THO's ePRISM clinical decision support platform with Medis' Quantitative Flow Ratio (QFR) technology, a non-invasive software for assessing coronary physiology.
The partnership will pilot at selected clinical sites, using real-time electronic health records data. Medis QFR has shown promising results in the FAVOR trials, demonstrating a 34% reduction in major adverse cardiac events compared to standard procedures. The technology has received approval in Japan and is included in the 2024 ESC guidelines with a Class I recommendation.
The PIONEER IV trial, involving 2,540 patients, will evaluate the next-generation QFR technology's integration with THO's ePRISM platform.

More than 60 million people currently suffer from coronary artery disease (CAD) worldwide1. Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is a common method for treatment and management of patients with CAD. As Medis QFR is an angiographic image-based approach, it eliminates the need for a more invasive wire-based approach in assessing coronary physiology. It is also capable of evaluating multiple areas from the same images versus the wire-based approach which is vessel- and often lesion-specific. This can potentially increase efficiency and safety while reducing procedure time.
The FAVOR trials, performed in the EU, have proven the efficacy of the Medis QFR solution in practical use during and after an interventional procedure. The FAVOR III China trial demonstrated a
"This collaboration underscores Terumo's commitment to building an innovative care operating system that not only improves clinical outcomes but also streamlines the entire care pathway," said Ryan Graver, Senior Divisional Vice President, THO. "By utilizing our ePRISM platform alongside Medis' QFR technology and TIS' devices, we are equipping clinicians with a comprehensive suite that enhances procedural efficiency and patient outcomes. Together, we are redefining what's possible in cardiovascular care."
"At Medis Medical Imaging, we are thrilled to partner with Terumo Health Outcomes to push the boundaries of cardiovascular imaging and decision support," said Maya Barley, CEO of Medis Medical Imaging. "This collaboration provides a comprehensive solution that enhances diagnostic accuracy and treatment planning. It highlights our dedication to improving patient care through innovation, working together with our worldwide network of partners."
THO is a division of TIS, which offers a portfolio of high-quality interventional devices that complement the predictive insights offered by the ePRISM platform. While ePRISM assists clinicians in identifying patient risk and optimizing treatment strategies, the advanced tools from TIS support procedural efficiency, contributing to improved patient outcomes. This combination assists clinicians to make more informed decisions, facilitating smoother procedures and potentially reducing hospital costs and recovery times.
