CompuMed Contracts Extended with Oklahoma and Arizona Corrections

Business Wire
CompuMed, Inc. (OTCBB: CMPD) (http://www.compumed.net), a
medical informatics and telemedicine services
company, has secured extended contracts to provide its signature
CardioGram™ electrocardiogram (ECG) remote interpretation
systems and over-read services for the Oklahoma Department of
Corrections (OKDOC) and Arizona Department of
Corrections (ADC) at selected facilities throughout both
states. The OKDOC rents 21 CardioGram systems, and the ADC owns 45
CardioGram systems.
Maurizio Vecchione, CompuMed's CEO, said, "The CardioGram helps
a facility to gain rapid access to specialists in diagnosing and
treating cardiovascular disease. Such access increases the standard
of care while minimizing costs and potential liability for the
facility.”
CompuMed’s CardioGram is a portable telemedicine device
supported by proprietary work-flow software. CompuMed's traditional
core business is providing remote ECG interpretation terminals and
related services to medical facilities that may not have access to
physicians trained and qualified to interpret ECG results or for
whom the costs are prohibitive.
Customers for the company's CardioGram system are typically
correctional facilities, ambulatory surgery centers, occupational
health clinics, research facilities and physician offices. New
markets being targeted are rural health and school based clinics.
The CardioGram system reduces healthcare costs significantly by
providing remote cardiac screening at the point-of-care and
reducing unnecessary transports to emergency rooms.
After patient preparation, the ECG is acquired with the push of
a button. The ECG data is digitally transmitted via any phone or
Internet connection to the company’s computer laboratory for
instant analysis. ECG data is interpreted by a sophisticated
computer algorithm, and interpretations are available in near
real-time at the CardioGram device. The data and interpretation can
then be transferred to an electronic medical record (EMR) via
CompuMed’s proprietary EMR software solution.
However, the most unique and life-saving feature of the
CardioGram is the device’s over-read capabilities or “The Doctor
Inside™,” which immediately engages one of CompuMed’s on-call
cardiologists to over-read the computerized interpretation.
Cardiologist over-reads can be made available to attending
physicians at the point-of-care, providing expert interpretations
in those situations where the data is ambiguous or difficult to
interpret. “The Doctor Inside™” is a key element of CompuMed’s
unique approach to telemedicine and telecardiology.
