San Francisco, California – Avvio Medical, Inc. (formerly Applaud Medical), a company dedicated to revolutionizing the treatment of urinary stones, today announced a bold step forward with a new name that reflects the Company’s vision for the future.
“Avvio is more than just a new name,” stated Paul Molloy, President and Chief Executive Officer of Avvio Medical. “Meaning ‘start’, Avvio embodies the company’s unwavering dedication to propelling the future of kidney stone treatment. This name change signifies our commitment to bringing a novel technology, the AVVIO Acoustic Cavitation Lithotripsy System, to market and transforming the patient experience.”

- Eliminate the need for anesthesia and X-ray imaging in many cases
- Significantly expand treatment access, driving greater health equity
- Provide a more convenient and potentially less stressful experience for patients
