WorldWide Tech & Science. Francisco De Jesùs.
Nonin Medical, Inc., the inventor of finger pulse oximetry
and a leader in noninvasive medical monitoring, today announced that
the Nonin Bluetooth Smart Model 3230 Finger Pulse Oximeter
was awarded the 2014 Bluetooth Breakthrough Award in the Product
Category.
The award is sponsored by the Bluetooth Special Interest
Group (SIG) and recognizes products launched in 2013 that are judged to
have a large market appeal and be innovative, easy to use, convenient
and reliable. More than 200 entries were received by Bluetooth SIG. The
winners were announced at the MobileFocus Global media event at the
Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain.
The Model 3230 is one of the first medical devices to
incorporate Bluetooth Smart wireless technology. Bluetooth Smart helps
to facilitate simple and secure connections to Bluetooth Smart Ready
devices for vital information exchange over a secure wireless
connection. The low energy feature of Bluetooth Smart allows the Model
3230 to run for months or even years on one button-cell battery.
"Nonin Medical's Model 3230 finger pulse oximeter is a great example
of how Bluetooth Smart is revolutionizing healthcare and empowering
people to live better," said Suke Jawanda,
Chief Marketing Officer, Bluetooth SIG. "We are pleased to honor Nonin,
a leader in non-invasive medical monitoring, with this award."
"Being recognized for this award is a significant achievement for our company," said Mark VanderWerf,
Vice President of eHealth for Nonin Medical. "The Model 3230 represents
a bold, new design of finger pulse oximeters and offers the potential
of reducing health costs by providing highly accurate SpO2 readings and delivering data to eHealth providers."
The Model 3230 allows simple and secure connections to Bluetooth
Smart-ready devices such as smart phones, tablets and telehealth
solutions using iOS, Android and Windows 8. It is designed for patients
who live with diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(COPD), congestive heart failure (CHF) and asthma. These patients
require frequent and accurate measurement of their SpO2 levels—the measurement of oxygen saturation in the blood.
