Marketwired
Cardiac Network, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: CNWI), a leader in advanced
mobile medical monitoring, announced today that it has formed a
joint venture with Med Mobile, which will allow Cardiac to begin
offering Personal Emergency Response Systems (PERS) to its patients
and HeartOne Club members at www.heartoneclub.com. PERS devices
contain a distress button and integrated active GPS system that can
activate a "panic" alert to Cardiac's 24/7 monitoring station,
provide accurate location tracking and get immediate live
assistance when and where it is needed. At the touch of a button,
patients can talk directly with the Cardiac Network monitoring
station. In turn, Cardiac Network's medical technicians can
communicate directly with a patient's doctor or emergency response
team.
Features of its new devices include:
-- Built in Cellular Speakerphone. PERS devices enable voice calls to be
made to numbers stored in speed dialing buttons (e.g. a relative or a
doctor) or to be received from any caller or from the remote monitoring
center.
-- GPS Location and Tracking. The PERS monitor enables accurate location
of users in need. If the geofencing feature is used, in the event that the
person wearing the device wanders outside a specified zone (e.g.
neighborhood or school area), the system can alert the monitoring center
and/or a relative or caregiver.
"Our patients want to take control of their health and well
being," stated Michael Swartzburg, Cardiac Network's President and
CEO. "With Med Mobile, we can use advanced wireless technologies to
bring peace of mind and deliver real-time medical monitoring,
communication and response in the event of an emergency, virtually
anywhere, anytime."
Med Mobile is a virtual network operator with world wide network
roaming agreements. Cardiac and Med Mobile joint venture will use
its wireless network to offer innovative wireless monitoring
solutions for improving people's health, safety and quality of
life. PERS devices are especially useful for elderly, chronically
ill, children (including autistic and developmentally disabled) or
lone workers, as well as their relatives and caregivers.
