GlobalMedia Launches Telemedicine Product for Ambulatory and Emergency Care
Date:4/24/2009

TransportAV allows for remote physician participation in real time during transport

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., April 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Scottsdale, Ariz.-based GlobalMedia, an innovator of video imaging and visual communications solutions used in the practice of telemedicine, announced today that it will unveil the newest addition to its product line, the TransportAV, at the American Telemedicine Association (ATA) Annual Meeting and Exposition in Las Vegas April 26-28. The new product, a portable medical consultation system that operates in real-time, is the latest technological communications solution for hospitals, rural clinics, physicians and nurses.

"GlobalMedia is always striving to provide the best in technology advances for the medical community," said Joel E. Barthelemy, managing director for GlobalMedia. "TransportAV is going to take ambulatory and emergency room care to the next level in healthcare."

Mounted on a stretcher, TransportAV allows for medical consultation from the field directly to the clinic or hospital where a patient is being transported. With the TransportAV, the remote doctor has the ability to control all aspects of the consult. The system features a military-grade touch-screen PC, a 3G Aircard, a controllable camera, echo canceling microphone, a ClearSteth(TM) Stethoscope, a TotalExam(TM) examination camera, and a Bluetooth wireless keyboard with headset for private conversations. All of this is designed into an adjustable, compact unit that can be mounted on a stretcher.

TransportAV is the brainchild of Dr. Hamilton P. Schwartz, director of Emergency Services at the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC). It evolved from a personal experience between him and his family wanting to communicate via web cams on laptops in the car. Dr. Schwartz and his wife, who also works at CCHMC, talked about ways to expand that concept to patient care. Afte
