ImageXpres Announces Contract With Texas Health Resource Group

Marketwired
ImageXpres Corporation (PINKSHEETS: IMJX) today announced it has
landed contracts for creating, manufacturing and selling its
Surg-i-Scan™ Surgical Safety Checklist sliderboards for several
hospital groups. Among these is the Texas Health Resource Group,
one of the largest faith-based, nonprofit health care delivery
systems in the United States and the largest in North Texas in
terms of patients served.
ImageXpres has shipped custom surgical safety checklist boards
to three of their fourteen member hospitals and affiliates, and is
now working closely with hospital staff on completing custom
designs, manufacturing and supporting sales of boards in a majority
of their OR, Labor & Delivery, Cath Labs and other
departments.
The surgical safety checklist initiative, initially promoted by
the World Health Organization as a protocol for saving lives and
reducing surgical errors, has been gaining major acceptance around
the US. Several states, like Texas, and South Carolina, which has
adopted the use of surgical safety checklists in over 80% of its
hospitals, are dedicated to this patient safety initiative. The
growth of this movement, aimed at decreasing patient accidents or
death related incidents, by almost 30%, has been steadily
increasing over the last few years, according to Dr. Atul Gawande,
author of "The Checklist Manifesto," and principle proponent of the
value of using a surgical safety checklist protocol system.
John Zankowski, ImageXpres President, CEO, states, "ImageXpres
hopes to increase its Surg-i-Scan™ Safety Checklist sliderboard
sales by 30-40% each quarter over the next two years. A target of
5,000 boards, or approximately $2,000,000 in Surg-i-Scan™ Safety
Checklist boards and software sales for the 2011 year is a moderate
estimate, but one we intend to exceed."
"ImageXpres has also augmented its Surg-i-Scan™ Surgical Safety
Checklist board sales with a digital version for the iPhone, iPod
touch and iPad, and is now developing an Android version. The
Company is currently testing a new, digital whiteboard annotation
device that 'digitizes' all of the surgical safety checklist data
to a customized database, designed by ImageXpres for the client
hospital. The Company intends to announce this system, along with
another "state of the art" medical product in the coming months.
This will round out our medical product portfolio and allow us to
engage several major distributors to help increase sales."
