Avancen MOD

Avancen is a medical device company that developed the MOD® (Medication On Demand) device, the first patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) system for oral medication. The MOD device is designed to improve the delivery of PRN (as needed) pain medications in hospital settings by allowing patients to self-administer prescribed oral doses within programmed safety limits. This technology aims to reduce nurse workload, improve patient satisfaction, and ensure more timely pain relief compared to traditional nurse-administered methods. The system utilizes RFID technology to ensure secure patient identification and integrated software for real-time monitoring and electronic health record (EHR) integration. By automating the delivery and documentation of oral analgesics, Avancen aims to enhance patient safety and clinical efficiency in acute care environments.
