4MedPlus Corporation Releases Accredited Online Covid-19 Contact Tracing Course

As states and cities begin to re-open throughout the United States, contact tracing has become one of the most important public health measures in the fight against the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Public health departments are now tasked to rapidly implement tracing programs and hire and train enough contact tracers to address emerging cases.

The 4MedPlus Online Training Corporation has developed a comprehensive entry-level contact tracing certificate program. It includes interview skill building, a real-world digital form practice tool and covers all recommended guidelines for contact tracing education. It is also the only accredited online program that includes a valid certificate of proficiency, a professional badge/seal and optional national CE credit for nursing professionals.

"The contact tracer has the ability to drastically alter the course of the virus trajectory by breaking the chain of infection and isolating those at risk of infection due to prior exposure." says Dr. Gregory Hanson, MD, MPH; subject matter expert and contributing editor for the new course "There will likely be a very large number of tracers required to meet demand while we attempt to jump start the economy in a safe manner."

What sets the 4MedPlus course apart from others, is it's focus on real-world interview samples coupled with hands-on digital practice lessons. The flexibility of delivery allows educational institutions and health organizations to host the training in their own learning management systems or provide access using a co-branded hub in the 4MedProPlus platform. It is available as a standalone course or may be bundled with basic HIPAA and Infection Prevention training for non-healthcare candidates. Volume wholesale licensing is available. 

Salary ranges for this position are reported to offer between $40k and $70k (depending upon region and experience) with both short-term and long-term opportunities opening up in all parts of the country. Public health officials say contact tracing allows for a slowdown of the virus without having to implement long-term mass stay-at-home orders, as infections in the U.S. register in the millions. Preparation for this important role through comprehensive training will be a key component of it's ultimate success.

LG Radiology Displays Bundled with PerfectLum Software

FDA-approved LG displays work with Perfectlum software and include all necessary software and certifications to meet strict New York and New York City requirements

Wilmington,DE, June 6, 2020 - QUBYX Medical Solution LLC today announced the immediate availability of advanced medical displays from LG Electronics, which are each bundled with Qubyx PerfectLum Medical Display Calibration and QA Software Suite that is perfectly suited for radiologist, chiropractors, urgent care facilities, hospitals, medical clinics and teleradiology providers.

According to Shareden Senior Business Development Director Sharon Johnson, the company will sell and provide software support for LG's new 27-inch 8MP clinical review medical display (27HJ713C-B), 32-inch 8MP diagnostic display (32HL512D-B) and 21.3-inch 3MP diagnostic monitor (21HK512D-B).

Stephen K. Hu, LG Business Solutions USA's head of medical monitors, said, "As demand for remote healthcare services grows, diagnostic displays will play a crucial role in disciplines such as teleradiology. Together with Qubyx, LG is committed to developing new solutions for healthcare professionals to help them provide the best possible healthcare services."In order to serve the market, LG designed these new displays to satisfy the stringent requirements of the New York State Department of Health Bureau of Environmental Radiation Protection primary diagnostic monitor guidelines (NYS PDM) and the New York City Health Department's Office of Radiological Health (PDM QA) programs for clinical review and diagnostic use in imaging environments. 

The displays are compliant with Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Part 14. The 21HK512D and 32HL512D have FDA 510(k) Class II approval and 27HJ713C is FDA registered. DICOM consistency and crisp, detailed visual quality are crucial for radiologists and other medical professionals to be able to draw accurate conclusions from analyses of patient studies, which led New York to develop strict requirements for diagnostic displays.

Qubyx PerfectLum is a multi-platform, multilingual, full-featured quality assurance tool and remote management solution that not only calibrates a primary or secondary medical display, but also performs acceptance and constancy tests to verify that the display conforms to such international regulations as NEMA DICOM part 14 GSDF, AAPM TG-18, DIN 6868-57, DIN 6868-157, JESRA X-0093, IEC 62563-1 ACR and NYS/NYC Primary Diagnostic Monitor (NY PDM) guidelines.

"PerfectLum Suite has been the preferred medical display calibration and quality control software used by hospitals, teleradiology companies, university health systems, and other medical facilities worldwide," Johnson said. "The integration of PerfectLum with the new LG medical display creates a perfect pairing; LG Electronics has the scale, infrastructure, and reputation to assure all customers they are using a superior product. Based on early interest, we expect these display solutions to become a standard-bearer for teleradiology needs. We are extremely happy that LG recognized the versatility, precision and accuracy of PerfectLum software technology as the perfect calibration complement for the LG medical display products."

The PerfectLum tool offers calibration, QA and reporting capability designed to meet both the NYS and NYC Primary Diagnostic Monitor requirements – making the LG/PerfectLum bundle the perfect solution for NY chiropractors, urgent care facilities, hospitals, medical clinics and other medical organizations.

Lenoir NC Company Files US Patent Application for VATTSMA

Inventors find 'Silver Lining in COVID-19 Cloud' with New Talk-Through Face Mask, Miniature Loudspeaker and Telecommunications Emitter Developed at University of Pittsburgh.

Asheville, NC, Jun 6, 2020 -- Joyce Mann, Chairman and CEO of Lenoir-based RMANNCO, Inc., announced today that RMANNCO, Inc. has caused the formal filing of Letters Patent Application drawn to a new means and method of communication and biocontrol protection while wearing any kind of face covering, such as surgical masks, plastic face shields or cloth face. The title of the invention is "Voice-Activated Talk-Through Safety Mask Appliance and Method", called, 'VATTSMA'™. See: https://doctorjoesoriginal.weebly.com/. The Inventors listed on the patent application are Ms. Joyce M. Mann and Dr. Joseph A. Resnick.

The new product has its foundations in three early patents issued by inventor, Resnick, while a student at the University of Pittsburgh Eye and Ear Hospital, Pittsburgh, PA where he developed 'The Resnick Tone Emitter', known as the 'Talking-Tooth', which issued as US Patent #4,571,739, Intraoral Electrolarynx; US Patent #4,706,292, Speech Prosthesis; and US Patent #5,015,179 Speech Monitor. See: https://tinyurl.com/y742blc7. Dr. Joe Resnick, a former NASA Scholar and Research Scientist, said, "Parts of those prior technologies are used in the new VATTSMA™ product for which letters patent protection is pending approval. Of particular value and use for the new product is the miniature loudspeaker and electronics 'chip' we developed at Pitt in the 1980's, as these are 'fluid-resistant' and won't be affected by moisture from breathing, talking, etc. A value-added feature is that the electronics package is removable allowing its use on new masks once original masks have become soiled or unwanted". Resnick continued, "As an 'Optimist', I like to find good outcomes in everything…even worst-case scenarios such as the COVID-19 Pandemic. I have always been aware of the problems communicating while wearing a surgical-type mask. This was problematic when I was a student at Pitt, nearly 40 years ago…and has remained problematic to this day…even in my own work in my own laboratory. Enter the new VATTSMA™ technology. Now, people wearing masks equipped with the amplification emitter who work in health care, in hospitals, etc., or government officials giving speeches or having to talk in public, will be able to do so without removing the mask and their speech will be more intelligible, more audible at 83 dB, which is just a little louder than speech during normal communication. So, to quote the old sayings, 'Every cloud has a silver lining'. And the VATTSMA™ technology represents a little piece of 'silver lining' that we have realized necessary and which fills a real-world need, despite this horrible Pandemic. 'Fortune favors the Bold'".

Since the declaration of the COVID-19 Pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020, most of the world's population has resorted to, or been mandated to, wearing some form of mask or face covering thought to help slow/stop the spread of the Corona Virus, COVID-19. According to the US Department of Commerce more than 2 Billion safety masks have been produced and used since the outbreak of the Corona Virus in January 2020. The US Department of Commerce reports that more than 300 Million N-95 masks have been ordered by various US government agencies since March 2020 with the US Military ordering millions more.

Mann said that the initial price for the individual VATTSMA™ unit will be around $20.00, and that a test-market study is being orchestrated on the 'GoFundMe' Crowdfunding platform at https://tinyurl.com/yau4duub . Mann said, "That price should drop, significantly, as large orders are received and the units can be contracted and sold at retail by the tens-of-thousands". Mann said, "Yes, they may seem a bit pricey, at first. But the retail price will fall, a function of supply and demand economics. As we receive more and more orders and these are passed along to our manufacturers, the electronics component price will fall, drastically. When that happens we will be able to offer the technology/masks for about the same retail price as an N-95 mask today".

Mann said that RMANNCO, Inc., Licensee to the technology, is actively seeking JV partners to assist with global marketing of the VATTSMA™ product line because the potential market size is so large.

New Vein Clinic to Open With A Mission to Make Your Legs Look Great

Scottsdale, AZ - A new clinic serving Arizona's communities will open in August to help clients walk with greater confidence - by removing embarrassing and troublesome varicose veins.

The Scottsdale Elite Vein Clinic, based out of 3226 N Miller Rd Suite #5D, will be available to patients across the Phoenix Valley, including Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale, Mesa, Peoria, Scottsdale, Tempe and Tuscon.

The clinic has been created by co-founders Todd VanDuzer and leading vascular physician, Dr Nima Azarbehi, with a single aim to help individuals eliminate pain and embarrassment in their legs.

Using the latest medical technology, the clinic offers non-invasive varicose vein treatment for those with a range of conditions, including leg pain and cramping, ankle swellings, venous ulcers, restless leg syndrome and burning, as well as addressing the aesthetic appearance of legs.

Radio frequency Ablаtіоn (RFA, аlѕо knоwn as VNUS or ClosureFAST, is utilised by the clinic and is a Mеdісаrе-apprоvеd, safe, minimally invasive procedure of removing varicose veins.

Unlike ligation and stripping where cuts are made over the vein, which is then tied off and stripped, RFA uses clean thermal energy inside the vein to gently close it off, leaving you with little to no marks that heal quickly.

The entire procedure, which is covered by most insurance providers, takes between 15-45 minutes and can be performed on an outpatient basis.

Mr VanDuzer explained that varicose veins are a common condition affecting 23% of all Americans, with women being twice as likely to get them.

Varicose veins are large, swollen veins with a bumpy texture that often appear purple or blue, and this is due to the valves in the veins not working correctly.

"Poor circulation and build-up of blood in veins closest to the surface of the skin become swollen and begin to bulge out," he added. "Varicose veins are not considered a serious medical condition but they have been known to cause pain, discomfort and even more serious problems in some instances. 

"Varicose veins are also noticeable and may cause people to feel uncomfortable or embarrassed."

He added: "At Elite Vein Clinic, our professionals ensure patients have a safe, pain-free, experience in identifying, treating, and eliminating varicose and spider veins.

"Our service quality, reputation and use of the latest vein treatment medical devices has provided us with the opportunity to serve patients across Arizona."
