Avanos Medical is a global medical technology company that develops and markets a broad portfolio of medical devices intended to improve patient outcomes in hospital, outpatient and post-acute care settings. The company’s products focus on three core therapy areas—pain management, enteral feeding and respiratory care—designed to help clinicians manage post-operative pain, deliver nutrition support and assist breathing for patients across a variety of acute and chronic conditions.
In its pain management segment, Avanos offers both non-opioid drug delivery systems and cryoanalgesia devices, including ambulatory infusion pumps and cooled radiofrequency ablation platforms. These solutions are intended to help reduce reliance on systemic opioids and support accelerated recovery protocols. The enteral feeding business provides a range of feeding tubes, pumps and accessories to deliver nutrition directly to the gastrointestinal tract, serving patients with swallowing disorders or nutritional deficiencies. In respiratory care, the company’s offerings include patient interfaces, breathing circuits and related disposables that aid in noninvasive ventilation, oxygen therapy and airway management.
Avanos Medical was established as a standalone company in January 2017 following a spin-off from Kimberly-Clark’s healthcare business. Headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia, the company maintains a presence in key markets across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America. Its global sales and distribution network supports hospitals, surgical centers and home healthcare providers with both direct sales teams and distributor partnerships.
Under the leadership of President and Chief Executive Officer Mike Coolbaugh, Avanos pursues a strategy centered on innovation, operational excellence and targeted acquisitions to expand its product portfolio and geographic reach. The company continues to invest in research and development to advance its current offerings and explore new technologies that address evolving clinical needs in pain management, nutritional support and respiratory therapy.
