About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Amarin Receives Positive Recommendation from Spanish Drug Pricing Committee for National Reimbursement of VAZKEPA® (icosapent ethyl) in Spain

-- Spain’s Drug Pricing Committee recommends reimbursement of VAZKEPA® (icosapent ethyl) to reduce the risk of cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with high cardiovascular risk1 --

-- Positive recommendation marks the final step in the reimbursement process in Spain following months of active negotiations between the Spanish Ministry of Health, the regional authorities and Amarin --

-- Amarin expects eligible cardiovascular patients to be able to access VAZKEPA under national reimbursement as of September 1, 2023 --

DUBLIN, Ireland and BRIDGEWATER, N.J., July 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amarin Corporation plc (NASDAQ: AMRN) today announces that following the most recent meeting of the Spanish Drug Pricing Committee (Comisión Interministerial de Precios de los Medicamentos) on July 24, 2023, the Committee is recommending the national reimbursement of VAZKEPA® (icosapent ethyl) to reduce the risk of cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with high cardiovascular risk1.

“Cardiovascular disease is still one of Spain’s leading causes of death and patients with this disease need access to new treatments that can reduce their risk of having another event. I am very pleased to see that our health authorities are now making icosapent ethyl available in Spain which has shown to significantly reduce cardiovascular risk and help to prevent future heart attacks or strokes in these high cardiovascular risk patients,” said Professor Luis Rodriguez Padial, cardiologist, and elected president of the Spanish Society of Cardiology.

According to data published by the Spanish National Statistics Institute (INE), in 2020 around 200,000 people died as a result of cardiovascular disease (CVD), making it the leading cause of death for the Spanish population as a whole, ahead of cancer2. In addition, more than 457,000 new cases are diagnosed each year in Spain. Cardiovascular health problems also have an impact on the workplace and the economy, with an estimated impact of 0.7% of the GDP in Spain, and a cost of more than 145 million euros per year in temporary disability3.

“The positive recommendation for VAZKEPA in Spain is an important step for the thousands of cardiovascular patients who now have access to a new, innovative treatment option to reduce their cardiovascular risk based on the robust clinical data and evidence from the REDUCE-IT study,” said Patrick Holt, President and CEO of Amarin. “Our team in Spain will now be laser-focused on supporting efforts to reach healthcare professionals and drive awareness and adoption of this important new treatment for patients. I look forward to our launch efforts to accelerate growth in this important market.”

The Company continues to advance its pricing and reimbursement discussions in a number of other European markets to drive patient access across the region and will share updates as these become available.
