CompuMed, Inc. Offers the INTEL(R) HEALTH GUIDE as Part of Its Integrated Telecardiology Services
22 March 2011 - 7:02AM
CompuMed, Inc. (OTCQB:CMPD)
(http://www.compumed.net), a
telemedicine and medical informatics company
providing telecardiology services and products for the clinical
sector, announced that it has begun offering the INTEL® HEALTH
GUIDE as part of its integrated telecardiology products and
services pursuant to an agreement signed today between the Company
and Intel-GE Care Innovations, LLC (Care Innovations).
The INTEL® HEALTH GUIDE from Care Innovations is a product
(hardware and software) that offers a comprehensive solution for
virtual care, enabling daily monitoring of patient health
conditions and information exchange via video conferencing. The
INTEL® HEALTH GUIDE provides a large touch screen and simple
software user interface. The system obtains information
(automatically if connected) from specific peripherals monitoring
vital signs (e.g., blood pressure, weight, blood glucose, pulse
oximetry and peak flow), as well as from questionnaires provided to
the patient. CompuMed has developed a series of customized
cardiovascular care protocols for use by its customers using the
INTEL® HEALTH GUIDE.
Maurizio Vecchione, CompuMed's President and CEO said, "We have
been working hard to extend CompuMed's capability into the disease
management arena. Our belief is that our customers need not
only diagnostic and over-read capabilities but also access to
technologies that manage patients long term." He added, "With
the introduction of the INTEL® HEALTH GUIDE into our product mix,
we have added an important capability to our product line expansion
for the Company. We are pleased to be aligned with a leader in
telemedicine such as Care Innovations and believe that pursuant to
our agreement, we can innovate and iterate our product line quickly
as a result of working together."
Dr. David Frisch, MD, F.A.A.C., and CompuMed's Medical Director
added, "Our monitoring protocols are targeted at cardiovascular
patients with intensive needs. By combining those protocols with
our existing diagnostic telecardiology, we can extend the type and
scope of our services that our physicians are able to offer. We can
now expand significantly into disease management, and we expect
this to have impact throughout our clinical settings."
