HealthStar Medical Technologies & Medical Development Co. Redefine Operating Room Theaters

Oct. 27, 2007 - PRLog -- Is your existing "ultra-modern" operating suite Dark, gloomy with trip and fall hazards, workflow obstacles, visual instability and bacteria-laded grout filled walls? Constantly adjusting or rearranging the theater for right or left handed surgeons along with the staff and equipment?

The new Standard in State-of-the-Art OR eliminates obstacles and hazards to promote efficiency. It produces effective workflow, "sighted" surgery and safety. It continually creates conditions of sterility, which prevents nosocomial infections and addresses the ever present staph "superbug" contamination all in a "hybrid" environment.

This is "the perfect environment" for heart surgeons, plastic surgeons, neuro surgeons, LASIK, gynecological, animal hospitals and even mobile configurations.

The ISE will fulfill a demand in a market that accounts for a minimum of $500 million dollars annually in potential sales.

There are more than 5,700 hospitals in the United States. We believe that well over one half of the operating rooms in these hospitals, will be undergoing major renovations, over the next five years. If we are able to establish a new standard of care in the areas of safety and sterility, we believe the combined forces of hospital code compliance and liability concerns, will drive consumer institutions to provide modernized operating rooms. We believe, as the innovator, we will be well placed to satisfy the demand. Approximately 2,600 of the hospitals in the United States were built in the 1960’s -1970’s. Most, if not all of these hospitals will be replacing and updating their operating rooms. We anticipate that over 50% of existing operating rooms will be available for renovation within the next five years. One market, California, is projected to replace almost all of the state’s operating rooms as they must come into earthquake code compliance within the next 7 years.

We are working with the New York State Department of Health architectural division and the Cabrini Medical Center. We plan on examining patient safety and controlling and limiting infections, and together, we hope to produce an executive certificate of need. This is likely to lead to modifications in the Department of Health’s Code, Rules and Regulations. These modifications, in turn, are likely to require other hospitals in New York's future operating room modifications to eventually comply with the revised standard of which these standards will be reflected.
