- NBA(R) Pre-Draft Camp Coach Selects SunTech Tango+for Automated Blood Pressure Measurement
SunTech Medical is pleased to disclose that its Tango+automated blood pressure monitor was recently utilized for the physical evaluation of NBA draftees, at the 2008 pre-draft camp held in Orlando, Florida.Joe Rogowski, an exercise physiologist for the Orlando Magic(R), selected the SunTech Tango+when he was charged with the responsibility of performing 79 stress electrocardiogram tests (ECGs) during the physical evaluation phase of the draft.Mr. Rogowski commented, “We wanted a seamless process for these exercise stress tests and the SunTech Tango+really helped us get the blood pressure readings in a reliable and efficient way.”During exercise stress testing, an athlete is fitted with ECG electrodes which feed cardiac information into a testing system as the subject runs on a treadmill. Blood pressure measurement is an essential part of the evaluation. The SunTech Tango+automated monitor is able to provide accurate and reliable blood pressure readings even in this challenging environment.SunTech Medical representatives Stephanie Monk, product manager, and Rod Thomson, sales manager for the SunTech Tango+, represented the company and provided training to the staff performing the evaluations.The SunTech Tango+uses proprietary motion-tolerant technology to provide reliable, clinical grade automated blood pressure measurements in the presence of noise and patient motion. In addition to blood pressure, the Tango+provides heart rate and pulse oximetry measurements. - Exhibition on 4th Health Asia 2008 in Karachi, Pakistan

At the beginning of 2008 Swann-Morton,the UK based quality manufacturer of surgical blades and scalpels, launched a new multi lingual product section on their website at www.swann-morton.com.Having worked closely on this project with their Sheffield based web consultants at"Sunflower Net Media"and French translation house"Champollion"the most visited area of the site which provides extensive product information along with images and an insight into some of the the areas of surgery where the products can be used, became available in French, German and Spanish.This has already started to have a positive impact with the major search engines as the site rankings across the foreign language search terms have improved on a month by month basis.Further languages are due to be added during the next 12 months increasing the ease with which this information can be accessed by potential customers and users throughout the world and assisting them in making informed decisions and choices. - SWann-Morton Surgical Handles - The Future is Now !
The transfer of the Surgical Handle Department from"Unit 1"to the new"Cobb Works"site opposite the main building in Owlerton Green was successfully completed in January 2008.The move coincided with advancements in the handle manufacturing technology utilised by Swann-Morton in response to changes in world demand towards stainless steel handles and away from the more traditional nickel alloy handles.Standardising the existing handle range to enable us to pass on long term cost savings and benefits to our customers is now a priority and we are currently phasing out the"plain"standard stainless steel handles No.3 (0903) and No.4 (0904, offering instead the"graduated"version No.3 (0933) and No.4 (0934).After analysing our current sales the demand globally for the"graduated"handle outweighs that for the"plain"handle and this has influenced our decision. There is no pricing differential between the two types of stainless handle.Further developments relating to our handle range will take place throughout the next 12 months. - New FinePCR shakers from Progen Scientific
