LOS ANGELES, Oct. 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Cytta Corp. (OTCQB:
CYCA), leading the way to cost effective health care, is pleased to
announce the appointment of Erik
Stephansen to President of its eHealth division. Mr.
Gary Campbell, Cytta Corp. Chairman
announced the promotion as part of the company's recent launch of
their CyttaConnect™ remote patient monitoring platform that
utilizes Cytta's cellular data network and its partners' FDA
approved Bluetooth medical devices. He stated, "Erik has been very
effective in bringing our system to market. His strong leadership,
excellent Corporate Development skills, and passion for our
revolutionary solution are important to Cytta's upcoming phased
roll out of the CyttaConnect™ medical system."
The CyttaConnect™ system delivers verifiable, real-time medical
data transmission from home based medical devices through our
Medical Smartphone to the Company's cloud based electronic medical
record (EMR) database. The EMR is automatically populated
with the patient's data and provides an interactive and
interpretive interface for review by the patient's providers and
caregivers. The data can be displayed in various numerical
formats, it can be graphed to show trends of these measurements and
it may be utilized to provide early warning signs of dangerous
health trends.
Mr. Campbell continued, "Erik was previously Vice President of
Strategy and Operations and will now oversee all aspects of the
eHealth growth plan. He has over 20 years of experience in
various leadership roles, developing branded companies and is very
well suited to positioning the CyttaConnect™ platform as the
trusted name for remote patient monitoring."
The CyttaConnect™ system is a trusted ecosystem of industry
partners and Cytta Corp's specialized cellular data network. The
company has been quietly signing up partners into the ecosystem and
developing an integrated CyttaConnect™ system that creates a
dedicated Medical Health Service Provider. The Cytta Medical Health
Service Provider fully manages, employs and delivers all components
into a successful, integrated solution. "We looked at other
attempts by several great and well-funded companies," stated Mr.
Stephansen, "However, the problem is these single-vendor systems
typically result in expensive programs that are better deployed for
use in critical care conditions. Whereas, the CyttaConnect™
solution is flexible and cost effective for minor and chronic care
environments. Plus, it's fun to use."
The CyttaConnect™ system and its partners' devices provide
seamless remote patient monitoring that is convenient and portable.
Doctors, caregivers, patients and loved ones can access
information at any time utilizing the CyttaConnect™ web Dashboard
or have the data ported to another EMR.
"We offer an alternative to having to go to the doctor's office;
yet, your health picture develops easily. It's simple to take
readings and you can do so anytime, anywhere without wires or
having to keep data logs!" expressed Mr. Stephansen while showing
the available Bluetooth medical devices to a rapt audience of
medical professionals.
The CyttaConnect™ system utilizes FDA approved Bluetooth
connectivity for the A&D weight scale, A&D blood pressure,
and Nonin pulse oximetry devices that are high quality, compact and
convenient. It also offers the sophisticated and FDA approved
Bluetooth "MyGlucoHealth" diabetes meter from Entra Health Systems.
More FDA approved Bluetooth devices are being integrated and
will be available soon.
Cytta Corp. is currently focusing upon introducing the system to
select doctors and caregivers. Some care professionals plan
to use the system to provide additional services that enhance their
business and improve patient health awareness. Several are looking
at customized, patient paid programs that highlight the new demand
for self-coordinated care. "We hear of the son or daughter
wanting to pay for the program and give it to their elder parent
since they are miles away and can't participate in close, ongoing
care management. With CyttaConnect™ we share the big (health)
picture, giving patients the freedom to roam or stay at home, while
providing their caregivers timely, accurate data," stated, Mr.
Stephansen.
CyttaConnect™ data access charges are low (similar to the cost
of a cell phone) and the FDA approved Bluetooth devices permit
immediate deployment without the red tape, cumbersome wires,
expenditure, or specialized training typically associated with
other home monitoring programs.
The CyttaConnect™ system allows your health professional to
become your health coach. More importantly, it empowers you to know
your own health. "It's all about you."
