Healthcare equipment company Hill-Rom, Inc.’s (Batesville, IN, USA) subsidiary, Comfort Holdings has acquired Anodyne Medical Device, Inc., also doing business and known as Tridien Medical (Coral Springs, FL, USA), a maker of medical therapeutic mattresses and chairs, from Compass Diversified Holdings (CODI).

Apart from hospital beds, support surfaces and mattresses, Hill-Rom also markets surgical equipment, including scalpels and surgical positioning tools, as well as respiratory care devices, such as a vest-based airway clearance system. Tridien’s product range includes powered alternating pressure mattresses and non-powered mattresses that adjust to a patient’s weight and/or position, mattresses that distribute a patient’s weight evenly to prevent pressure ulcers, and a mattress that alternates pressure to treat pressure ulcers. CODI, which owns and manages a diverse family of established North American middle market businesses, maintains controlling ownership interests in each of its subsidiaries, and also held a majority stake in Tridien that was sold to Hill-Rom.

"We have enjoyed working with the management team of Tridien and wish the company continued success in the future," said Alan Offenberg, CEO of CODI.
