DXE Medical Rebrands as Cardio Partners Inc.
DUBLIN, OH—DXE Medical Inc., a Sarnova company specializing in cardiac products, services and solutions, announced Sept. 5 that it is changing its name to Cardio Partners Inc. The new name is meant to reflect the company’s newly expanded cardiac preparedness service offering.
DXE Medical specialized in distributing new and recertified emergency equipment and refurbishment services when Sarnova acquired the company in 2013. Since then, Sarnova has facilitated two more strategic acquisitions that expanded DXE’s cardiac care offering to include emergency preparedness consultation, nationwide CPR training services and proprietary emergency program management services. This new and comprehensive offering has changed the way DXE interacts with and serves its customers, which the company wanted to convey in its new name and brand, according to a release.
“DXE and our parent company Sarnova have held a vision of delivering a fully integrated cardiac preparedness solution to the marketplace,” said Reuben Dickenson, vice president and general manager of Cardio Partners. “Following recent acquisitions, we have fulfilled this vision and believe that rebranding is an important step in this transformation. With our new name, we want customers to quickly understand the breadth of our services and our leadership in the category.”

“We’re excited about the name change and even more excited about the direction of the company,” said Jeff Prestel, president and CEO of Sarnova. “Our expanded capabilities and services help our customers, and most importantly, support them with saving lives.”
