SAN DIEGO, Oct. 6, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- Isensix, Inc. (www.isensix.com), the premier provider of wireless monitoring systems for medical facilities, clinical laboratories and blood banks, today announced the success of its initial deployment to select locations nationwide. With its unique monitoring, alarming and reporting ability, Isensix allows medical professionals to monitor the temperature and environment of sensitive life-saving elements including blood and medication, continuously and from remote locations.
"Devastating losses to blood banks happen too often in this country and massive amounts of blood have to be disposed," said William Son, president of Isensix. "The Isensix wireless remote monitoring system eliminates the danger of losing precious inventories of blood, vaccines, research samples and other vital medical supplies by providing environmental monitoring via simple installation of wireless sensors, and with up to 30 years of data retention. This technology will enable medical facilities of all kinds to not just save time and money, but to also save lives."
Isensix has developed a wireless remote monitoring system that has been government and hospital approved, and has been implemented in prominent locations such as Children's Hospital San Diego, UCLA Medical Center, National Genetics Institute and other top-tier healthcare facilities. This patent-pending wireless monitoring and control system provides 24/7 real-time remote alerts, and has multi-redundancy and auto-reporting capabilities. Isensix ensures vigorous, regulatory compliance and accurately measures, reports and controls its environment with carefully prescribed parameters.
"Isensix has worked closely with industry leaders and medical professionals to bring a wireless solution to the industry that will help facilities save time and valuable resources," continued Son. "In the past, nurses and other hospital staff would have to manually test reserves of temperature-sensitive items such as blood and medications throughout a shift, taking attention away from patients. The Isensix solution allows staff to concentrate on their primary responsibilities and offload the monitoring to a reliable, electronic system."
The Isensix system features a simple user interface and offers a variety of notification services within its monitoring programs including email, pager and mobile phone contact for emergencies. It has been deployed in critical care areas such as blood bank, ER, operating room, delivery room, ICU, NICU and controlled substance labs. Isensix can be used for many procedures including DNA processing stations, sample storage units and thermal cyclers in addition to blood banks, pharmacies, and pathology, microbiology and chemistry labs.
