Outset Medical adds Brent Lang to its board of directors By Investing.com – Investing.com

SAN JOSE, Calif. - Outset Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ:OM), a company focused on innovating dialysis technology, has announced the appointment of D. Lang to its board of directors. This strategic move comes as Outset continues to expand its market presence with its flagship Tablo Hemodialysis System.

Lang's extensive background in medical technology, including his recent tenure as Chairman and CEO of Vocera (NYSE:) Communications, positions him well to contribute to Outset's growth. His experience is expected to complement Outset's direction, particularly in software-enabled business models that align with the company's recurring revenue approach.

Leslie Trigg, Chair and CEO of Outset, expressed confidence in Lang's ability to contribute to the company's mission of improving patient lives through innovative healthcare solutions. "He is an ideal board member to help guide our continued growth," Trigg stated.

The appointment coincides with the departure of Katie M. Szyman from the Outset board, as she prepares to assume the role of CEO at a spinoff of Edwards Lifesciences Critical Care division. Trigg thanked Szyman for her contributions during a transformative phase for Outset, which included a public offering.

In his new role, Lang will also serve on the Audit Committee. His career highlights include leadership roles at Vocera Communications and positions with 3Com Corporation and Monitor Company, Inc. Lang also brings a unique perspective as a former Olympic gold medalist and a current chairman of Movella Holdings Inc. and a board member of Thriveworks.

"I look forward to joining such an accomplished board, and a company that is having a direct and profound impact on the lives of dialysis patients and providers," said Lang, recognizing Outset's potential for growth.

Outset's Tablo System is FDA cleared for use across various care settings, from hospitals to homes. It is designed to simplify the delivery of dialysis treatment by integrating water purification and on-demand dialysate production, effectively making it a mobile dialysis clinic. This technology, coupled with its data analytics platform, aims to enhance the overall dialysis care experience.
