| Quebec, Canada, July 6, 2001- -
Thought Technology Ltd has announced an alliance with TeleVital
Inc. to offer a web-enabled version of Thought Technology’s Procomp+
and Myotrac3 signal processing units for real-time remote assessment,
analysis, storage, and retrieval of physiological data over the
Internet.
Thought Technology’s ProComp+TM is a multi-modality
8-channel system for monitoring electromyography (sEMG), electroencephalography
(EEG), electrocardiology (EKG), skin conductance, temperature, blood
volume pulse and respiration. Myotrac3 was designed as a highly
sensitive dual-channel sEMG unit that enables clinicians to customize
patient assessments and training protocols for incontinence.
TeleVital uses their proprietary browser-based
software engine, VitalWare, and has recently web-enabled Thought
Technology’s ProComp+™ and Myotrac3 signal processing devices, allowing
biofeedback clinicians to perform remote monitoring, assessment,
and management in real-time over the Internet. The data is dated
and stored, and can be securely retrieved, trended, and analyzed
from anywhere in the world using a 56K, ISDN, DSL, or T1 Internet
connection. TeleVital provides selectable single and multiple channel
display screens for all modalities, and has also web-enabled Dr.
Howard Glazer’s protocol used with the Myotrac3 for remote assessment
and treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction. While healthcare
providers remotely view their patient’s real-time physiology and
control the display screen, both parties stay connected using real-time
audio, video, or the built-in instant messaging communication services,
said Dr. Hal Myers, President of Thought Technology' Ltd.
VitalWarewill compliment Thought Technology’s
physiological monitoring devices by offering a complete solution
for biofeedback clinicians to remotely monitor, assess, and manage
acute and chronic illness in real-time over the Internet to enhance
delivery of care in a variety of specialties," states Kishore
Kumar, President of TeleVital Inc.
TeleVital Inc., based and founded in San Jose,
California, specializes in web-enabling medical devices, and provides
the infrastructure that allows for real-time data streaming over
the Internet, using their proprietary real-time browser-based software
engine, VitalWare TeleVital provides a fully-managed connectivity solution
that will securely link the biofeedback community, and ensure security
and confidentiality. Visit TeleVital’s website at www.televital.com
