FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CLEVEMED EXPANDS INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION BY OBTAINING SLEEP DIAGNOSTIC PRODUCT REGISTRATIONS IN MORE NATIONS OVERSEAS
CLEVELAND, OHIO, May 22, 2009 – Cleveland Medical Devices Inc. (CleveMed) announced that it has registered its sleep diagnostic devices in Colombia, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia and the Philippines, opening the door to product distribution in these countries.
CleveMed’s Division of Sleep Disorders offers complete wireless PSG systems, such as the 14-channel Crystal Monitor® PSG Series and the 22-channel Sapphire PSG™. The SleepScout™ is a type III monitor for home sleep testing. All four systems include Crystal PSG™ software, a user-friendly software package for data acquisition, scoring and reporting that are used by clinicians in the diagnosis of sleep disorders. (
View Overview Video) The Crystal Monitor 20-S, Crystal Monitor 20-B and Sapphire PSG systems can all be upgraded with the iPSG Inpatient PSG System to allow for remotely attended sleep studies in hospital rooms. Due to the systems' compact size, wireless design, fast and simple system setup and rearrangement, they are uniquely suited not just for studies in the traditional sleep lab setting, but also for nontraditional sleep applications such as hospital inpatient testing for pre-surgical evaluation, nursing homes, "hotel sleep labs" and patients' homes.
"This is a significant milestone in CleveMed’s pursuit for global expansion. We are very excited about establishing distributorships in these areas. CleveMed is also working toward medical device CE Marking to be able to distribute its products in Europe as well", says Del Basa, International Sales Manager at CleveMed.
About Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnea is a serious chronic sleep disorder where patients stop breathing numerous times during the night, which fragments their sleep and stresses the cardiopulmonary system during what is meant to be a restful and regenerative period.
