SunTech Medical announced today that it has received clearance
from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the SunTech
247(TM) Diagnostic Station - a modular device that will provide manual
and automated blood pressure as well as optional temperature and SpO2
measurements. The SunTech 247(TM) will launch into global distribution
beginning in August.
SunTech Medical, known for its popular Tango+ automated blood
pressure monitor for exercise stress testing, has designed the SunTech
247(TM) as a clinical-grade BP device that bridges the gap between
manual sphygmomanometers and vital signs devices.
"The SunTech 247(TM) Diagnostic Station is the first clinical
grade product to offer automated BP measurement with a manual back-up
mode, making it a very reliable BP device for healthcare providers,"
stated Dayn McBee, CEO. "Even the best oscillometric monitors may
occasionally fail to get a BP reading. Now, however, we provide a
simple way to get an accurate reading even in difficult measurement
situations."
The SunTech 247(TM) is offered as an affordable replacement for
mechanical blood pressure gauges. The modular plug-and-play (PnP)
design allows the clinician to add additional temperature and pulse
oximetry parameters at a later time, if needed. Flexible mounting
systems include wall, table-top, and mobile stand configurations.
