SHL’s SmartHeart portable 12-lead ECG
technology successfully participated in the U.S. Army’s Project
Convergence – Capstone 4 experiment (PC-C4), demonstrating
exceptional reliability, user-friendliness, and effectiveness, even
in extreme scenarios.
SHL Telemedicine Ltd. (NASDAQ: SHLT, SIX: SHLTN;) ("SHL"
or the "Company"), a leading provider and developer of
advanced personal telemedicine solutions is pleased to share that
in a remarkable display of innovation and operational excellence,
the Company’s SmartHeart®, portable 12-lead ECG technology
showcased its unparalleled capabilities and successfully
participated in Project Convergence – Capstone 4 (PC-C4), the
largest, two-phase, “in-the-dirt” experiment to date that includes
enduring objectives and learning demands evolving from the Project
Convergence campaign of persistent experimentation. One key event
during the experiment was a comprehensive multi-day army medical
experiment held at Fort Irwin’s National Training Center in the
Mojave Desert amidst the challenging terrains of California’s
Tiefort Mountains.
Designed to revolutionize urgent cardiovascular assessment in
non-traditional settings, SmartHeart® provided critical support
across different roles of care, during the experiments, ensuring
swift and accurate heart condition evaluations in various levels of
trauma care. The SmartHeart® technology was used by a varied group
of healthcare clinicians including nurses, medics and physicians
amidst the rugged desert conditions, where it demonstrated its
reliability, ease of use and effectiveness in extreme
conditions.
PC-C4, a joint, multinational experiment hosted by the U.S. Army
across multiple locations in February and March allowed military
medicine to explore and integrate the latest technological
innovations in a field environment. SmartHeart’s inclusion in this
prestigious experiment underscores the growing recognition of SHL’s
portable ECG technology as a game-changer in the fast-paced and
demanding field of military healthcare.
Jason Bottiglieri, General Manager at SHL Telemedicine USA,
emphasized the significance of this achievement, stating: “The
army’s invitation for SHL to participate and the SmartHeart’s
exemplary performance in PC-C4 solidifies our technology's critical
role in rapid cardiac assessment. It addresses a crucial need in
the continuum of military medical care from initial non-battle
evaluation to trauma response, to advanced interventions for
intensive and continual care. The SmartHeart’s robust performance
in the challenging operational and environmental conditions of the
experiment promises to transform how heart conditions are assessed
and managed in field operations, ultimately leading to better
outcomes for those serving on the front lines.”
