Fort Worth Company Donates ‘Made in America’ N95 Masks to Salvation Army

FORT WORTH, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Fort Worth-based company United States Mask is on a mission to make the holidays a little brighter and safer for community members who need it the most. At 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, December 22, the United States Mask team will donate more than a thousand N95 particulate respirators to the Salvation Army of North Texas. With the recent surge in COVID-19 cases, the company is making sure that Salvation Army volunteers and children and families in need have the best protection available.

The integrity of the product they are giving is of utmost importance to United States Mask co-founders John Bielamowicz and David Baillargeon. Their N95 respirator is certified by the CDC's National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. The product is also sourced and made exclusively in the United States, eliminating reliance on overseas supply chains. Using state-of-the-art technology and custom machinery, the N95 masks are part of the founders' commitment to bring manufacturing of personal protective equipment back to the U.S.

Built on the idea that masks should be made in America for Americans, Bielamowicz and Baillargeon started their company in April of 2020 when the pair saw that a limited supply of PPE was forcing healthcare personnel, first responders and front-line workers to reuse N95 respirators that had been imported from around the world. Finding the situation unacceptable, the business partners set out on a mission to ensure that individuals have access to N95s that are trustworthy and dependable.

"This is a difficult time for many people, and organizations like the Salvation Army are still continuing with their mission," said Baillargeon. "This donation is just a small way we can help to make sure these brave women and men are able to stay safe during this holiday season."

Purchasing options for United States Mask's N95 particulate respirators are available in quantities suitable for both small and large organizations. For more information or to place an order, visit https://www.unitedstatesmask.com/.

Lift & Care Systems Provides Durable Medical Equipment Checklist for Caregivers of Disabled Individuals

LAKEVILLE, Mass. /ScoopCloud/ -- Lift & Care Systems announces the release of the following durable medical equipment checklist for day programs, group homes, and other programs for the disabled. As a caregiver for the disabled, you will often discover that assessing the safety and quality of these programs is, at times, challenging, but one of the fastest ways to do this is by seeing if they have the following durable medical equipment on hand at their locations.

Wheelchairs

Most participants arrive at their day programs, group homes, or other events with their own wheelchairs, but having a few additional wheelchairs available is always a good idea in case of emergency. There is always a chance that a wheelchair malfunction or an emergency creates the need for an urgent escape from the building.

Patient Lifts

Portable patient lifts should be on hand in order to allow participants who have severe mobility issues to be moved anywhere on the premises as necessary. These can be lifts specifically designated as pool lifts for access into and out of a swimming pool or just to move the individual from place to place within the building.

Patient lifts are critical pieces of durable medical equipment in order to prevent strain on the caregivers for the disabled individual, as well as significantly reduce the risk of injury to the individual or the caregiver.

For more severely disabled individuals, these patient lifts might be installed as permanent track lifts that allow the individual to move (or be moved) from important areas of the building such as bedrooms, recreation areas, bathrooms, etc.

Ramps

Most buildings that have any public access are required to have ramps available for disabled individuals, but what about for vehicles that are used to transport these individuals around. Portable ramps are a must for those situations where a ramp might not be available or when access in and out of a vehicle might be necessary.

Grab Bars

Grab bars provide stability to disabled individuals in a variety of settings. These should be installed in any location where additional stability is necessary, such as near toilets, dining areas, or activity rooms. Portable grab bars such as Health Craft's Superpole(tm) or Superbar(tm) are also helpful in areas where mounted grab bars are not practical.

Railings

Rails installed in hallways, near ramps, and in places where disabled individuals might need help getting up and down from seated positions such as couches, chairs, beds, toilets, and baths are also very helpful.

Bath & Shower Seating

For locations where disabled individuals might live or spend long periods of time, it is a good idea to have shower and bath seating available for them. Another option is a roll-in shower, which is ideal for wheelchair users. Both types of equipment provide some degree of independence while still keeping them safe.

Executive Intends to Stand on NYC Street Hugging COVID-19 Infected People

NEW YORK CITY, N.Y. /ScoopCloud/ -- New York based Best Virus Shields (BestVirusShields.com) is the manufacturer of a new "oral" COVID-19 respirator mask for use in high-risk environments, like sitting in an airliner cabin for several hours shoulder-to-shoulder with up to 300 strangers or visits to medical facilities. Today the company announced that its President, Thomas Leahy, would stand on 7th. Ave. at the NW corner of 42nd. Street from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on November 25th. and 26th. to demonstrate the efficacy of the company's groundbreaking oral respirator mask.

While stationed there each day, Mr. Leahy will hold a large sign encouraging people infected with COVID-19, the flu or a common cold virus to take a moment for a hug in the spirit of hope and for the benefit of science. Mr. Leahy states, "I will rely on well-settled science and the superior KN100 filter technology incorporated into the company's oral respirator mask to be protected against any viruses. Further, in preparation, I tested negative for COVID-19 three different times in the past three weeks at three different laboratories and I will retest again following this event."

This oral respirator mask, a device that goes partially inside one's mouth to make a perfect seal using one's lips rather than directly on one's face, is a giant leap forward in COVID-19, flu and common cold personal protection. This oral respirator mask addresses the biggest problem underlying most face masks. That problem being face masks are only fully functional (to their rated standard) if they are able to seal perfectly to one's face 100% of the time.

Today, few face masks have that ability because most face masks leak around the edges and bridge of one's nose to varying degrees. This leakage is due to faces being different sizes and shapes due to age, ethnicity, gender, weight and unique facial features. This leakage significantly undermines the effectiveness of a face mask. In fact, common surgical type face masks and many homemade or e-commerce sourced decorative face masks are notorious for leaks and are essentially just ornamental.

About Best Virus Shields:

Best Virus Shields, Inc is a new company formed in 2020 to develop products that use mechanical systems and advanced filter materials to protect users in high-risk or life-threatening environments. These include exposure to COVID-19, the flu, and common cold viruses, as well as wildfire smoke. (Thermally generated particulates.)

Lift & Care Systems Provides Resource Sheet for Massachusetts Caregivers

LAKEVILLE, Mass. /ScoopCloud/ -- Lift & Care Systems announces the release of the following Resource Sheet for Massachusetts Caregivers. "We tried to gather the best resources for anyone who has a loved one who has suffered from a disability," says Dave Austin, President of Lift & Care Systems. "This is a traumatizing event and it is understandable that caregivers might not know where to begin when looking for help. This is why we have gathered these resources together in one place."

Applying for Disability Services

There is basic information that will be needed to apply for disability services, no matter what organizations you work with. Here is what you will need:
* Social Security Number/Card
* Medical Records - Any information from doctors, therapists, hospitals, or clinics that might be necessary during the application process.
* Medical Provider Contact Info - The names, addresses, phone and fax numbers for anyone involved in the individual's care.
* Labs and Test Results
* List of Medications - Include the dosage and frequency of use information as well.
* Employment Information - A list of the individual's employers, employment dates, and a listing of job duties for the last 15 years.
* School Evaluations and Records - These school records are critical for any child with special needs because they document the issues that may impact the eligibility and scope of services offered.
* Financial Information

Disability Services Resources

Here are some of the best resources available for Massachusetts residents:
* Massachusetts Office on Disability (MOD)- This is one of the best places to begin your hunt for information. It provides contact information to get questions answered as well as links to various services.
* Mass.gov Disability Benefits page-Offered by the Massachusetts Rehabilitation Commission (MRC), this page guides you through the eligibility determination process.
* DisabilityInfo.org - This page provides links to a variety of basic programs and services for people with Disabilities. Everything from legal advocacy and assistive durable medical equipment to personal care and transportation assistance is covered on this page. This is a fantastic place to begin your research.
* Disability Benefits Center- This page has a free disability evaluation to determine if you qualify for services. This page is geared toward SSDI and SSI eligibility and recommends that you hire a Massachusetts social security disability attorney.
* Massachusetts Disability Resources and Advocacy Organizations- Created by OlmsteadRights.org, an advocacy group formed based on the landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision Olmstead v. L.C., this site has a massive list of links to all sorts of disability services, organizations, and information of interest for anyone needing help for someone with a disability.

Caregiver-Specific Resources

Caregivers are impacted just as much as the individual who was disabled, and often need help. There are many local organizations and support groups around that can help. Speaking to your doctors or therapists is a great place to start. Other local resources to check out include churches and religious organizations, libraries, and community services organizations.

But don't overlook global organizations that provide support online such as these:
* The Family Caregiver Alliance - This site offers support for anyone in a family caregiver role regardless of that family member's disability.
* ARCH National Respite Network - This is a group that can help you locate respite care in your area. Everyone needs a break sometimes and this group can help you find respite care you can feel confident in whether you need that care for a disabled child or an elderly parent.
* AARP - This organization is all about helping seniors live their best lives but they also have information and support for caregivers of those seniors.
* VA Caregiver Support - If you are caring for a veteran, some of their needs may be different than those of civilians. VA Caregiver Support can offer help and information specific to caregivers of veterans whether it is navigating the VA system or dealing with service-related health conditions and injuries.
* Well Spouse Association - The Well Spouse Association offers help and support for those who are the caregiver to their spouse. Most of us promise in our wedding vows that we will be there in sickness and in health but wanting to be there and knowing how to help our partners and be their advocate can take practice and support.

"This is just a sampling of the resources available out there for Massachusetts caregivers," says Austin. "Remember that you are not alone in this struggle and that there are others out there who have been through what you are going through and can help."

Startup Designs Nasal Respirator to Protect Airways While Freeing the Mouth

WINTERS, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Modern Mammoth Technologies, LLC, is announcing the launch of a unique nasal respirator to provide more protection to more people-especially the frontline heroes. Modern Mammoth is a startup founded by two veterinarians, Dr's Valerie Fournier and Alejandro Garcia.

Hero Mammoth is an air filtration device that can use a wide array of filters, including N95 and high MERV. This device is versatile, extraordinarily comfortable and most of all, it is unique in the fact that keeps your mouth free to communicate.

Their team conceptualized and designed a nose-focused respirator after one of the founders was exposed to wildfire smoke at the Camp Fire in 2018 while working as a volunteer veterinary responder.

Hero Mammoth uses anatomically focused design to integrate a nasal dilator and detachable respirator. This focused design means less filter material is needed, resulting in a more ecofriendly and economical solution.

"Right now, face masks are being reinvented in many different ways. Hero isn't designed to replace a face mask - it's something which can be used with a mask for an extra level of protection, or on its own. It's a whole different product," says Dr. Fournier.

After the 2018 California wildfire season, the effect of breathing in smoke and other contaminants became evident. Lingering cough, fatigue, and headaches were all common complaints.

"It was serendipity really. Previously, we had been working on a nasal dilator to help us breathe better while hiking and last year, while testing, we discovered the unique weight-bearing properties of this device. Now, it became our core technology and base to produce the nasal respirator," said Dr. Garcia.

Since early 2019, work on Hero nasal respirator and Silent Mammoth, the nose dilator, has plugged along. Then at the end of the year, tragedy in the form of SARS-COV2 struck.

Dr. Fournier, who also holds a degree in public health said, "Part of the veterinarians' oath is to protect the public health, and we are scaling our efforts to bring this to production as soon as possible."

Dr. Garcia agrees. "I want people to be able to go to work and feel protected. I want it to be affordable. I don't want them to be constrained to having to buy expensive filters through us, and wait for it to get there. If they only have 1900 filters-they can use that! I want people to feel safe. We can't go forward like this, really. We can't wear masks all day, all the time," says Dr Garcia.

The respirator is specially designed to be taken apart, cleaned, and reused. This lessens environmental impact, leading to less discard in the landfills.

The cartridges can be loaded with any filter material, and it only takes minimal skill with a pair of scissors. Simply cut a small strip to fit and wrap the inner cartridge. The external clip protects the filter material so it lasts longer and you don't have to touch it.

The facial gasket is soft foam with an internal stainless-steel structure and additional foam sealing strip around the edge. The user can bend the gasket and apply the sealing strip as best suits them, which leads to a better fit. Most users can tell if they have a gap and adjust the gasket to compensate.

This nose respirator also includes the option of a copper mesh insert to protect the filter material. Copper has been shown through extensive research to have broad antimicrobial qualities.

Thus far the project has been self-financed. To begin mass production they decided to reach out for help. Due to the current COVID-19 situation, many traditional avenues such as face to face networking aren't possible.

In these times, adaptability is key, which is why a Kickstarter campaign was decided on to get front line funding.

Modern Mammoth will be launching their product for presales on crowdfunding platform Kickstarter on May 19, 2020.

Talon International, a global Trims and Zipper manufacturer, is leveraging its supply chain, delivering millions of pieces of PPE to global market

WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Talon International, has retooled its manufacturing facilities in the U.S. and around the world to supply Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for medical and non-medical. Talon is supplying 3-ply face masks and medical-grade face shields, as well as cloth masks, gloves, alcohol wipes, hand sanitizer, and isolation gowns. A portion of the proceeds from the sales of PPE will be donated to the Feeding America organization.

"For over 125 years, Talon has supplied the fashion industry with trims, zippers and other related products," said Larry Dyne, CEO of Talon. "Today, the world has very different needs. I'm proud of the team at Talon for taking on the challenge of redirecting all their efforts to supplying our country and local communities with safety equipment that will save lives. This team is passionate about being able to help the whole world in this effort. Our entire supply chain is mobilized and ready to meet this global challenge. Our 125 yrs. of expertise in managing supply chains and global logistics will aid this effort."

Manufactured in Los Angeles, the Talon face shields help the N95 masks last longer by protecting them from particulate matter. Manufacturing of these shields will ramp up very quickly to keep up with the demand required. We have the ability to "scale up" on short notice. Talon's "stretch technologies" facility was retooled in just a few days to begin making these face shields. Talon is also manufacturing and importing hand sanitizer, alcohol wipes, gloves, and medical gowns for use by medical and non-medical personnel.

While production is expected to be significant and consistent, businesses and nonprofits in need are encouraged to contact the company immediately to make sure their needs are filled quickly.

Customers can begin placing orders by e-mailing Covid@TalonInternational.com with a request for what they need.

"My optometry business hasn't stopped," said Dr. Matthew Aplert, based in Los Angeles, California.

Startup Atmos Home Shifts Gears with Invention to Help Solve Ventilator Shortage

BROOKSVILLE, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Tampa Bay startup developing smart home control systems, Atmos Home, has now shifted gears to produce a new type of ventilator to address the nationwide ventilator shortage due to the COVID-19 crisis.

Atmos Home is leading an effort involving scientists and healthcare experts to produce a ventilator to help meet the continuing surge of respiratory cases as a result of the coronavirus. This new type of ventilator is built around automated compression of a bag valve mask.

Normally a smart home equipment developer, Atmos Home has the credential of developing the world's first smart home hub that combines all major home automation control protocols combined with touch, voice, gesture, and app controls.

The company's founder, Mark Lyle, has previously developed solutions for NASA and other wireless infrastructure providers. With its primary business sidelined because of the coronavirus pandemic, Atmos Home has utilized its skills and components to deliver a game-changer for medical professionals treating patients with COVID-19.

The innovative endeavor from Atmos Home involved re-tooling to create an automated version of a bag valve mask. These bulbous face masks are used as breathing apparatuses, normally squeezed manually by caregivers in order to help patients keep breathing. Atmos Home's concept was to eliminate manual operation and design a machine to actuate the air bag automatically, pushing air into a patient's lungs.

"I think we are injecting some reliability into the mix," Lyle said. "Plus, the complexity to be able to adjust those critical factors like breaths per minute, inhalation exhalation ratio... and so forth that some of the other projects might not be addressing."

Atmos Home is collaborating on the project with scientists, engineers, and doctors from around the globe and plans to open source the designs for its solution. It has been observed that many early stage patients that only require minimal amount of breathing assistance are currently occupying ventilators. According to the project team, their new innovation can be used by these patients.

"Now you have freed up a nurse or an EMT, and potentially freed up a ventilation machine, so absolutely the goal is to avoid the situation that we're in today," Lyle said.

Having already created the prototype, Atmos Home informs that the cost to manufacture its new ventilation device will be less than a tenth of the price of a full-blown ventilator and it can be manufactured from readily available components. The company is now looking to quickly obtain FDA approval for its device.

"If all of us working on this project can save some lives in the process," Lyle added, "that's the ultimate goal."

Lift & Care Systems Offers an Annual Inspection Program for Group Homes, Day Programs and Care Centers

LAKEVILLE, Mass. /ScoopCloud/ -- Durable medical equipment such as ceiling lift systems and other patient transfer devices, pool lifts, chair lifts for stairs and platform lifts for group homes, day programs and care centers get a lot of use - a lot more use than your average residential home installation, says Lift & Care Systems.

When you combine heavy use with this complex equipment with many moving parts, breakdowns and problems with the equipment are almost unavoidable.

To help address this issue, Lift & Care Systems offers an Annual Inspection Program (AIP) to help assure that all of the durable medical equipment installed in your building performs well and works safely for all residents or participants in programs at your facility.

With over 25 years of practical, "in-the-trenches real world" experience, Lift & Care Systems knows where the problem areas within this equipment may be and, when combined with carefully following the manufacturer's inspection list, can uncover and resolve potential issues before they result in an equipment breakdown.

Benefits of an AIP Program for Durable Medical Equipment

The AIP is an inexpensive service that provides the following benefits for your group homes, day programs and care facilities:
* Keeps the equipment operating safely.
* Eliminates or minimizes equipment downtime.
* Avoids expensive emergency service calls.
* Assures that the equipment can handle the rapid transfer of patients in the event of an emergency evacuation.

Inspection Services for Durable Medical Equipment

"Your lift system is built with many safety features that we maintain according to the manufacturer's specifications, but we go above and beyond this level of service within our Annual Inspection Program," said Dave Austin, Owner of Lift & Care Systems. "We are committed to the safety and well-being of your loved ones, no matter where they are through the use of our AIP."

Here are just some of the services performed in an AIP:
* Check the battery performance, charging system, and safety limit switches.
* Ensure that the track/rail is well anchored and tightly secured as the day it was installed.
* Grease and clean any parts as needed.
* Inspect the condition of all parts.

Our trained and qualified technicians use specialized testing devices to uncover any issues with the installed durable medical equipment. If they uncover a problem that requires a part replacement, they will do so only with your permission.

Lift & Care Systems' Annual Inspection Program is well worth the price when you consider the cost of emergency service calls, expensive replacement parts and, most importantly, the peace of mind knowing that your loved ones are safe and well cared for within these facilities. We offer our AIP for equipment installed in residential homes as well.

The OLFACT Test Battery – a Screening Test App for Predicting Alzheimer’s

CINCINNATI, Ohio /ScoopCloud/ -- The OLFACT™ Test Battery, developed by Osmic Enterprises, was initially developed to detect olfactory impairments. Now, it's been adapted as an automated, self-administered screening test to predict Alzheimer's disease/dementia and is being tested by a number of prominent physicians and research laboratories around the United States and in China.

People sense smell through the olfactory nerve and the olfactory system is often one of the earliest sites where the signature neuropathology of Alzheimer's disease is found. The olfactory system is also intricately connected with the hippocampus, a brain structure that plays a major role in the formation of memories. These factors suggest that the sense of smell could be effective in assessing for development of the disease.

The OLFACT™ Test Battery consists of a miniaturized olfactometer (instrument to generate smells) and a tablet-based app which controls presentation of the smells by the olfactometer and administration of the test protocols on the tablet.

The test battery has four standard olfactory function tests: odor identification, memory, discrimination and threshold. The tests are presented in an unbiased manner with computer-accurate consistency concerning timing and smell concentration. The app scores and provides a report of the results and all data is stored in real-time in a central, cloud-based database.

Osmic Enterprises is currently in the process of applying for FDA approval for the test. Once it receives FDA clearance, it can be used with other biomarkers to screen for Alzheimer's/dementia.

In the immediate future, the test can help to select subjects for Alzheimer therapeutics clinical trials. Currently, 10 subjects must be screened to find one acceptable for inclusion into a clinical trial (average cost per enrolled subject, $49,000). The OLFACT™ could potentially increase these odds and help to lower recruitment costs while selecting better suited candidates.

The test has been validated in a number of National Institutes of Health-sponsored clinical trials including one at the Rush Medical Center in Chicago - the Memory and Aging Project. This was a community-based prospective study where normal cognitive adults, 65 and older, were enrolled and underwent annual exams until death. The OLFACT™ Test Battery was added into those annual exams and data was collected for approximately 600 patients for three consecutive years (2010-2012).

Data analysis showed that the results from the OLFACT™ Test Battery can be used to predict the probability of Alzheimer's developing in an individual over a four to 10-year timeframe.

In another study at Harvard, the test battery was shown to accurately identify subjects as being cognitively normal, mildly impaired or having Alzheimer's/dementia. Other clinical trials are underway at Indiana University School of Medicine and Hershey Medical Center/Penn State University.

The OLFACT™ Test Battery is not a diagnostic test, it only predicts the odds that a patient will develop Alzheimer's/dementia.

"The consensus in the field is that since Alzheimer's is a disease with multi-factorial etiologies, there probably will never be a single diagnostic test," Dr. Lloyd Hastings, president and director of research, Osmic Enterprises, says. "It will require a number of screening tests, each probing a different physiological substrate, to obtain a definitive answer and The OLFACT Test Battery is well positioned to be one such test."

By combining cutting-edge technology with sound psychophysical principles, Dr. Hastings says that its innovative tests will become industry standards for assessing the sense of smell in medical clinics, industrial workplaces and research laboratories.

The OLFACT™ Test battery was developed with the aid of SBIR grants funded by the National Institutes of Health/National Institute of Aging.

The product and its data on predicting Alzheimer's will be presented at the Clinical Trials on Alzheimer's disease (CTAD) conference from December 4 through 7 at the Hilton San Diego Bayfront. Dr. Hastings will be available for interviews.

JENISON, Mich. /ScoopCloud/ -- Anterior Quest's Newest product, AQ-Solution, has set the gold standard for dental line cleaners. Recently, the market's most environmentally sound product was tested by an independent testing facility in Ann Arbor, Michigan to evaluate the effectiveness of the product and the results were astonishing.

National Access Corp. Launches Initiative Aimed at Helping the Elderly and Disabled

LANCASTER, Pa. /ScoopCloud/ -- National Access Corp. (NAC), an access and mobility provider focused on improving the lives of the physically disabled and elderly population, has launched its "Make it Better" - "One at a Time" initiative, which seeks out deserving individuals needing access or mobility related equipment or home modifications.

"The goal of the initiative is to find individuals or families who may not be able to afford some of the more costly equipment or modifications and to provide them for free or at a reduced cost," stated NAC's operations manager, Tory Buffenmyer. "We understand that some of the costs associated with specialized medical equipment, and especially home modifications, can be rather costly and out of range financially for some families. Our goal is to give back to our communities directly by providing life changing access or mobility solutions for free, or at cost to a handful of individuals."

NAC's slogan "founded on the simple principle of helping others" certainly rings true with this new initiative.

"We got into this space as a result of wanting to improve the lives of those facing access or mobility related issues as a result of a disability or aging. One of our founding partners had a personal experience where a family member became suddenly disabled. After spending several months trying to find help for his family member, he decided there was a need not being met and that something had to be done," said NAC's spokesman Darian Epstein.

"We're providing resources for families and individuals who find themselves needing help and answers to some of life's changes, our goal is to be the first place people turn when the need arises" continued Epstein.

NAC's community outreach director, Shannon Taylor, described the initiative as an experiment. "We're going to try this out with a handful of individuals to see how it goes. Our goal is to document a few cases that really outline the need within our communities, and to then garner support from local businesses wanting to make a difference in the lives of others." Taylor continued, "one thing that really surprised me when I got involved with NAC, was the tremendous need for what we do. For every person you see publicly, living with a disability, there at least ten more in the immediate area that you will never see because they live as shut ins - they lack the access or mobility required to make it out and into society. We're planning on changing that."

National Access Corp. is a Pennsylvania corporation with offices in Lancaster and Philadelphia, operating throughout the mid-Atlantic region. NAC specializes in providing straight forward solutions for access and mobility. Individuals needing anything from a wheelchair ramp or a barrier free shower, to a stairlift or scooter can contact NAC for free in-home consultations.

"We handle several lines of stairlifts, wheelchair platform lifts, in home elevators, scooters and scooter carriers, access ramps etc., and can do most any type of modification to residential or commercial buildings in order to make them accessible," said NAC's Buffenmyer.

To learn more about the initiative individuals should contact NAC at (717) 826-9431, or visit the website: http://www.nationalaccesscorp.com/

Non-Profit Announces New Safety-Reviewed Wheelchair Vehicle Resource

TAMPA, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- The National Mobility Equipment Dealers Association (NMEDA) announced today the debut of an online resource designed to help people with disabilities and their caregivers make informed choices when shopping for a wheelchair accessible vehicle.

http://www.nmeda.com/safetyreviewedvehicles is an online listing of all vehicle conversions that have been reviewed for compliance to applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards by NMEDA's Compliance Review Program engineers. The site contains a comprehensive list of all known vehicle conversion companies and the individual conversions that have been reviewed, including make, model, year and conversion type.

"NMEDA is delighted to be able to offer a free, easy-to-use resource for helping folks make informed choices about the conversions they are considering," said Danny Langfield, NMEDA CEO.

"We are also very excited about the number of companies that have already approached us about getting their conversions posted. We believe the ability to offer the widest possible range of compliant manufacturer products is essential for the success of our mobility dealer members and the satisfaction of the public they serve."

NMEDA's review process is critical, Langfield explained, because the wheelchair vehicle conversion industry is self-certifying, meaning that while companies must certify to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that their conversions are compliant, no proof is required to be submitted.

"For us, a manufacturer's statement is just not sufficient," Langfield stated. "We created this resource to allow companies to submit objective evidence that their conversions are indeed crash-worthy. When you are talking about the safety of an at-risk population like our customers, not to mention the public with whom they share the road, crossing your fingers and 'hoping' a conversion is safe isn't good enough - we want to see the data."

"The message is simple - 'Check the list!'" added NMEDA President Chad Blake of Ability Center. "When shopping for a wheelchair accessible vehicle, safety is definitely not the corner you want to cut."

About NMEDA:

The National Mobility Equipment Dealers Association is a non-profit organization of mobility equipment manufacturers, dealers, driver rehabilitation specialists, and other mobility professionals dedicated to improving the lives of people with disabilities through the use of wheelchair accessible vehicles. NMEDA administers the Quality Assurance Program (QAP), the only nationally recognized accreditation program for the adaptive mobility equipment industry.

‘Better than crutches’ – Medical professionals Create Breakthrough Mobility Technology

NAPLES, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Healthcare innovator Dynamo today announced the rollout of Dynamo SportSwings. Designed as a replacement for the common, underarm crutch, it reflects the most advanced, top-to-bottom redesign since the days of the Egyptian pharaohs.

Dr. Michael Swank, orthopedic surgeon and company co-founder, said, "The healthcare industry continues to make extraordinary advances in patient care-with the exception of commonly prescribed crutches, canes and walkers. All that's going to change with SportSwings and other Dynamo science-based solutions to follow."

The company said additional breakthrough devices are in the pipeline; including canes, walking sticks, cuff-based crutches, and walkers. Each reflects the input of several hundred orthopedic surgeons, physical therapists and other medical professionals who, like their colleagues around the globe, have for decades had to deal with notoriously uncomfortable, unsteady and unattractive mobility aids.

Several of these advisors are investors in the company, providing its research advisory board with continuous and valuable technical input.

Dr. Matthew Langenderfer is an orthopedic surgeon, Dynamo investor, and advisory board co-chair. "Everything my colleagues and I do," he said, "is about delivering the best possible outcomes for our patients. Frankly, with most of the mobility device options available to medical professionals, that has for years been a frustrating challenge. It's exciting to put all that behind us with these game-changing, 21st century products."

The new SportSwings crutch replacement features a patented SwingLink Safety System. This is an adjustable, behind-the-back tether that dramatically improves safety and confidence, including virtually 100% of forward slip-outs. The product also features a patented foot-like base that offers unprecedented traction on nearly any surface: snow, mud, grass.

An early SportSwings prototype was used by an individual recovering from knee surgery. She used it while hiking up the Great Wall of China. "No way could I have made it without my SportSwings," she said. "They saved my dream vacation."

About Dynamo:
Founded in 2016, Dynamo is literally reshaping expectations for how 21st century mobility devices should look, feel and perform.

The company, headquartered in Naples, Florida, is the creator of "swing technology." This revolutionary new approach to design and engineering not only ergonomically refines each device component, but also integrates them to work as a single, dynamic unit. This efficiently returns the patient to as close to their natural "swing" walking gate as their condition allows.

Memphis-based Venture Capital Firm Innova Announces Sale of Portfolio Company Arkis Biosciences to Integra LifeSciences

MEMPHIS, Tenn. /ScoopCloud/ -- Innova Memphis, a Memphis-based early stage venture capital firm, is pleased to announce the acquisition of its portfolio company Arkis Biosciences. Knoxville-based Arkis, a neuro-surgical medical device company, has been acquired by Integra LifeSciences Holding Corporation, a leading medical technology company.

"The acquisition of Arkis Biosciences strengthens Integra's offerings in neurocritical care and Integra's position as the world leader in advanced catheter technology," according to a press release issued on July 29 by Integra; furthermore Dan Reuvers, president of Codman Specialty Surgical says: "Today's acquisition expands our leading portfolio to better treat patients and underscores our commitment to addressing unmet needs in patient care."

Innova was an early investor in Arkis and led the company's Series A round in 2016.

Ken Woody, Innova President and Arkis Board Chair says: "We were very impressed with the team, and technology from day one. I worked closely with Chad Seaver and the management team, and saw their daily commitment to product quality and compassion for the patients. This was a great outcome for Arkis, and we could not have picked a better company to acquire this lifesaving technology than Integra. I'm very proud of the Arkis team and thrilled with the outcome for our co-investors."

Jan Bouten, Partner at Innova further states, "This is a great win for Tennessee. Arkis was founded by a physician from UT Medical Center and an engineer with a PhD from UT. They got started in the UT Research Foundation Business Incubator. This outcome is a great demonstration of Innova's thesis: 1) invest local, 2) invest early, 3) invest in great teams, and 4) invest in promising technologies that fill a real customer need. From there, we work very closely with the Founders as they grow their business and we bring other investors along with us."

IEDCO Vacuum Conveying Systems Designed to Overcome Difficult Plant Layouts

TURNERSVILLE, N.J. /ScoopCloud/ -- IEDCO, a leader in the design and manufacture of custom engineered powder handling systems and solutions offers custom design solutions for efficiently moving powders in plants with difficult layouts.

There are multiple critical components in a pneumatic conveying system. In circumstances where the plant layout is challenging, custom designed systems dictate where and how these critical components are placed. These components consist of the pickup point, tubing, receiver, vacuum pump and the control system.

The pickup point may be a wand, bag dump station or bulk bag dischargers. Tubing may be of varying materials and diameter. The receiver is fit with valves which discharge the received material into the process, while the vacuum pump creates the suction to pull the material through the tubing. The control systems manage the flow of material through the system by dictating suction pressures, batching, multi-ingredient processes and more.

All of these components must be properly configured to ensure product gets from point to point in the plant while maintaining product integrity, flow rates, and safety.

While these systems are customized to meet individual needs, IEDCO's experience with designing, manufacturing and installing these systems results in systems that are efficient and cost effective. IEDCO pneumatic conveying systems are ideal for the food, pharmaceuticals and chemical industries.

John Hagelgans Joins Zanthion as Chief Technology Officer

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- John Hagelgans has joined Zanthion(TM) as their new CTO. Zanthion spent over a year looking for a new chief technology officer based in the United States with the integrity and intelligence to help them achieve dominance in the elderly care market.

They engineered a sophisticated gating mechanism for their CTO hire involving logic tests, measurement of their personal investment in elderly care, measuring their proactiveness, determining their willingness to provide value first, and last and most importantly, their integrity and capability. John flew through all gates and is already a valued member of the Zanthion team helping them deliver SMART Living.

"Somebody once said that in looking for people to hire, you look for three qualities: integrity, intelligence, and energy. And if you don't have the first, the other two will kill you. John exemplifies integrity and Zanthion is lucky to have gotten all three in a great leader," says Philip Regenie, CEO, Zanthion.

According to Senior Housing News, "smart" living environments for seniors are a must, and are, without a doubt, the next frontier. Ginna Baik, strategic business development manager for senior care for CDW Healthcare, spoke at the publication's Los Angeles Summit, stating that 80% of the top 100 senior living providers in the U.S. are considering or actively implementing such measures (*note 1). The revenue of the smart homes market is, in fact, expected to grow to $58.68 billion by 2020, with the increased mandate for senior care solutions being a large part of that growth (*note 2). Integral to these smart home networks will be "wearables" that keep tabs on the vitals and whereabouts of seniors at all times.

John will lead the charge in enhancing the Zanthion suite of data-rich wearables and environmental sensors with AI. John comes to Zanthion from Greenlight Financial Technology where he was a founder and served as CTO and Head of Data and Analytics for 4 and one-half years taking the company from an initial $1M dollar investment to an Amazon partner investment at $27.5M. John's long history of entrepreneurship in the financial world is an invaluable asset to the data analytics required for sensor analysis and data collection.

Atlantic Coast Surgical Suites performs first navigated reverse total shoulder at an ambulatory surgery center in New England

SEABROOK, N.H. /ScoopCloud/ -- Atlantic Coast Surgical Suites is an ambulatory surgery center designed for, and specializing in, outpatient joint replacement surgery. Today, Dr. Moby Parsons of The Knee, Hip and Shoulder Center performed the first outpatient reverse shoulder replacement here using the Exactech GPS (Guided Personalized Surgery) preoperative planning and navigation system.

According to Parsons, "There are very few centers around the country offering surgical navigation for shoulder replacement at an outpatient surgery center. This is the first such case in New England."

Dr. Parsons is one of the design surgeons for the Exactech GPS system. A preoperative CT scan provides a detailed 3D picture of the patient's arthritic shoulder. Images are then imported into a planning software that allows the surgeon to virtually perform the operation, selecting the right implants and their optimal position and orientation relative to the patient's individual anatomy. This plan can then be taken into the operating room where special instruments with trackers synced to a computer and camera system allow real time navigation of the surgical plan.

"Arthritis causes wear and erosion of the socket bone. Our goal during surgery is to restore patient anatomy as best we can. Planning and navigation substantially improve our accuracy compared to conventional instruments," Parsons notes.

Parsons, along with several other design surgeons and engineers, has done extensive research and development on surgical navigation in shoulder replacement and has been using this technology for almost 2 years since it became commercially available. Parsons was also the first surgeon in New Hampshire to perform a reverse shoulder replacement in 2004 and was recently inducted into the American Shoulder and Elbow surgeons, recognizing his expertise in shoulder surgery.

Advances in patient preparation, pain management, anesthetic techniques and surgical techniques now allow many patients to go home the same day as their joint replacement surgery. "Recovery in the comfort of home is both safe and highly satisfying for patients," Parsons notes.

"Our ambulatory surgery center specializes in orthopedic procedures with a highly dedicated staff who focus on same-day care day in and day out. Experience and expertise really matter to do this well. We are extremely fortunate to have a center like Atlantic Coast Surgical Suites where we can deliver high quality outpatient joint replacement."

Lift and Care Systems Now Offers Wheelchair to Car Transfer Devices

LAKEVILLE, Mass. /ScoopCloud/ -- Lift & Care Systems is proud to carry Access Unlimited's Multi-Lift and Glide n Go wheelchair to car transfer devices. The Access Unlimited Multi-Lift is designed to be used primarily with cars, but it can also be used for vans, trucks or SUVs.

The Multi-Lift allows you to lift a power wheelchair or scooter in and out of your vehicle, in addition to helping the individual enter and exit standard, unmodified vehicles. Another great benefit of using the Multi-Lift is that it can used in the home for bedrooms, bathrooms or wherever else it might be needed.

The Multi-Lift is the perfect general-purpose body lift system that can be used almost anywhere, whether it is needed to enter a hotel room or vacation home, used to get in or out of bathtub or pool or safely enter and exit a vehicle.

The Glide 'n Go lift is a portable, easy-to-use lift for transferring a patient from a wheelchair to a van, truck or SUV. It features a power lift and transfer seat that enables individuals with reduced mobility to enter and exit standard, unmodified vehicles. It works using the vehicle's own battery power to raise the individual up to the vehicle's seat height, or lowering the individual to the seat height of the wheelchair.

If for some reason the vehicle battery dies, don't worry, because the lift has an emergency back-up system that will allow the individual to exit the vehicle. The Glide 'n Go works on both the driver and passenger side of vehicles in either the first or second row of seats.

Both the Multi-Lift and the Glide 'n Go wheelchair transfer devices do not require drilling to install them in the vehicle. All that is needed is the make and model of the vehicle where the Multi-Lift or Glide 'n Go will be installed. The vehicle specific brackets will be provided to bolt the lift onto it. This maintains the resale value of your car.

"The Access Unlimited line of wheelchair to car transfer devices fills an important gap in our line of products for disabled individuals," said Dave Austin, President of Lift & Care Systems. "Not everyone can afford-or even need-a custom built lift system for their modified car or van. This makes the Multi-Lift and Glide 'n Go a great option for many families."

About Lift & Care Systems, Inc.:

Lift & Care Systems, Inc is dedicated to bringing the highest quality of life to users and their caregivers by providing customized solutions that enhance the users' mobility.

Local Foot and Ankle Surgeon Heals His Own Foot Pain with New Brace

CARMEL, Ind. /ScoopCloud/ -- An idea for a new medical device for foot pain surfaced when podiatrist Dr. Patrick DeHeer suffered from posterior tibial tendonitis - a common foot and ankle problem - after taking up running. Since traditional treatment options weren't efficient or effective enough, DeHeer and his partners formed IQ Med LLC and developed "The Equinus Brace(TM)."

DeHeer initially tried everything to alleviate the pain, including a commonly prescribed night splint. "You need to wear them all night and they're not super comfortable to sleep with. Patients are always complaining about waking up with them," commented DeHeer, a Westfield, Indiana resident. "I consistently woke up in the middle of the night while sleeping on my side with my knee bent. I realized the night splint wasn't doing anything, because to effectively stretch your calf muscle, you have to have the knee fully extended. That's where I came up with the idea for 'The Equinus Brace.'"

After DeHeer's experience with night splints, he began working to create a better brace. Nearly five years later, he created "The Equinus Brace(TM)" with Carmel, Indiana residents John Moorin (owner of another medical distribution business) and Ricky Heath (a long-time executive in medical devices).

The Equinus Brace(TM) helps Achilles tendonitis, plantar fasciitis and over 30 other foot and ankle disorders. The name is based on equines because horses often walk on their toes. Likewise, many humans lean too far forward when walking, causing multiple foot and ankle disorders.

"As humans, we have consistently tight calf muscles, which results in about seven million foot and ankle injuries a year. One billion dollars a year is spent surgically and non-surgically just to fix plantar fasciitis alone," said Moorin.

A doctor typically sends a foot or ankle patient to a physical therapist, who usually gives them a night splint or shows them several basic stretches. The likelihood is that the patient won't do the stretches properly or as often as needed. This lack of compliance is what leads to ineffective treatment, explained Moorin.

The Equinus Brace(TM) solves the problem of compliance by only having to be used one hour a day (unlike night splints). It's also a much better way to stretch the two calf muscles - the gastrocnemius and soleus - which is critical for proper treatment and long-term results for plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis and other disorders.

Medicare covers The Equinus Brace(TM), as do nearly all insurance companies. A shorter brace, The Equinus Brace(TM) 2.0, became available in June for children and smaller adults.

An idea for a new medical device for foot pain surfaced when podiatrist Dr. Patrick DeHeer suffered from posterior tibial tendonitis - a common foot and ankle problem - after taking up running. Since traditional treatment options weren't efficient or effective enough, DeHeer and his partners formed IQ Med LLC and developed The Equinus Brace.

New Nanopen Offers Safer, More Effective, And Less Costly Alternative to Micro-Needling and Other Abrasion Therapies

LAS VEGAS, Nev. /ScoopCloud/ -- Micro-needling has become one of the more popular skin care procedures across the globe; however increasing concern over misuse and other risks threaten to dampen its use. But a new product from Skin Moderne debuting at the 2018 International Esthetics, Cosmetics & Spa Conference, promises to deliver all of the benefits of micro-needling without any of the risks.

The Nanopen, sold by Skin Moderne to estheticians, dermatologists, and plastic surgeons, is a handheld cosmetic skin permeation device that, like micro-needling, causes 'micro injuries' which in turn triggers biological wound healing. However, the Nanopen uses much smaller needles made from pharmaceutical grade mono-crystalline silicon, thus creating smaller holes that do not cause bleeding and infection like the standard stainless steel needles on existing micro-needling rollers, pens, or machines.

"Micro-needling can be dangerous, if skin permeation is too deep, the dermal layer may be damaged, control of the release rate imprecise, and one risks pain, infection, and potentially toxic side effects. If permeation is too shallow, the thin but tough stratum corneum of the skin will keep out the desired skincare ingredients," said Richard Purvis, founder and CEO of Skin Moderne Inc.

"We believed a better solution was needed for safety and to improve the absorption rate of the serums that are such an important part of the process. We wanted to ensure the correct amount of nutrients reaches the right place at the right speed at the right time, using the right method. So, the Nanopen was developed to do just that," said Purvis.

The Nanopen tip is attached to the motorized handpiece that carries no needles, but a stamp with microscopic silicone pyramids. For comparison: A normal hair has approximately a diameter of 80 microns. The silicon pyramids used here have a tip of less than 10 microns. This makes it possible to create microchannels in the epidermis painlessly and without skin irritation or other side effects. The absorption of the accompanying serums through the skin is increased by up to 5 times for about 20 minutes compared to a conventional treatment.

Furthermore, the Nanopen is a far more affordable option to other skin care equipment and systems, such as electroporation, ultrasound, and micro-needling. And because the Nanopen does not use needles, it is not subject to the any of the FDA or other legal restrictions associated with these other therapies.
