Masimo Corporation Given Approval to Market the Masimo Rad-57 Pulse CO-Oximeter in Japan
Date:11/27/2007

Prior to the Masimo Rad-57, the only method to accurately diagnose CO poisoning required inconvenient blood tests using expensive blood gas machines that are not available outside the hospital environment, where detection is often needed most. The ability to quickly and conveniently obtain accurate measurements in any environment leads to informed and timely treatment decisions, which can save lives and money.

"Having a noninvasive hand-held device that quickly measures the amount of CO in a person's blood would enable greater cost and care efficiencies at the scene of emergencies," said Yasuhiro Yamamoto M.D., Ph. D., Professor and Chairman, Department of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine, Nippon Medical School. "The ability to accurately diagnose and triage CO-poisoned victims at the scene can speed transport and proper treatment for higher priority cases, while reducing the flood of non-emergent patients at hospitals due to suspected poisonings and eliminating unnecessary lab tests."

Joe E. Kiani, Chairman and CEO of Masimo stated, "We are excited to bring the Masimo Rad-57 Pulse CO-Oximeter to the market in Japan where thousands of people die each year as a result of CO-poisoning and countless others suffer permanent brain, heart and organ damage. All too often CO-poisoning goes undiagnosed, silently robbing unsuspecting victims of precious health and life. The Masimo Rad-57 Pulse CO-Oximeter provides an easy and timely way to detect this deadly poison."
