Marketwired
ImageXpres Corporation (PINKSHEETS: IMJX), today announced that its
Surg-i-Scan™ "digital" Surgical Safety Checklist system will soon
be available as an Apple software "app" via the Apple iTunes Online
Store. The Surg-i-Scan™ "digital" surgical safety checklist
software has been designed to reinforce and document improved
surgical safety protocols resulting from hospital use of surgical
safety checklists now being used by hospitals in the U.S. and
abroad.
John Zankowski, ImageXpres President and CEO, states, "The
ImageXpres Surg-i-Scan™ 'digital' Surgical Safety Checklist
Software, and accompanying checklist flatscreen displays, has been
undergoing rigorous testing, and the software is now ready for
large-scale sales to hospitals, clinics, and physicians offices.
The downloadable software will be available as a free, 30-day
evaluation by the hospital surgical staff, to determine its
effectiveness and performance in their own operating rooms. Once
the trial period is over, the software, with requisite
customization, will be licensed to the hospital on a one-time, per
user basis. ImageXpres will provide all upgrades and support for
the software, as well as back-up storage for hospital provider
personnel, at a yearly or monthly rate. Our goal is to make the
digital checklist very affordable for millions of hospital
providers, thus generating strong market pull for the unique,
patient safety product. General availability for hospital sales
through the iTunes store is anticipated to be no later than March
1, 2010."
ImageXpres is working closely with a key Apple software
development partner, along with a number of medical surgical supply
organizations, in order to reach thousands of hospitals in a timely
manner. The U.S. market is estimated at over $25 million annually,
based upon the number of surgical operating suites, and could reach
over $100 million annually by 2012.
ImageXpres also manufactures and markets analog, custom-designed
Surg-i-Scan™ Safety Checklist boards for operating rooms. The
digital software product can augment the effectiveness of the
analog Surg-i-Scan™ Safety Checklist boards, or can be used
independently, using an Apple iPhone, or iPod Touch device,
providing valuable documentation of all surgical procedures on an
ongoing, daily basis.
Mr. Zankowski, concludes, "We are very excited about this
particular product, as it is one is one that truly can benefit
every hospital and surgical suite no matter where they are located.
The WHO study has documented the benefits of surgical safety
checklists for hospitals and patients, in terms of lowered deaths
and lowered surgical procedural errors, thus saving lives and
improving healthcare delivery. Our Surg-i-Scan™ 'digital' Surgical
Safety Checklist product now makes it affordable and easy for any
hospital, in any country, to test out the usefulness of a surgical
safety checklist process, and make immediate improvements in
patient safety."
