Nonin Medical Announces New Programming Features Added to WristOx2® Model 3150 Wrist-Worn Pulse Oximeter

MINNEAPOLIS, March 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Nonin Medical, Inc., the inventor of fingertip pulse oximetry and a leader in noninvasive medical monitoring, announced today that a Memory Volume Indicator (MVI) mode has been added to the company's WristOx2® Model 3150 wrist-worn pulse oximeter.  The MVI mode provides a graphic display of the amount of recorded data in the Model 3150 in hours and minutes and helps insure that sufficient data has been recorded during oxygen verification testing.

The WristOx2 Model 3150 is a widely used pulse oximeter which is worn on a patient's wrist. It allows clinicians to monitor a patient's pulse rate and SpO2 levels over a prolonged period, such as during sleep studies. SpO2 is the measurement of oxygen saturation in the blood and can be a vital determinant whether a patient is breathing properly while sleeping.

"The addition of the MVI mode in the Model 3150 WristOx2 is in direct response to customers who have asked us to help them verify their testing data," said Brian Balleria, Product Marketing Manager for Nonin.  "By providing the MVI mode, clinicians can now provide Independent Diagnostic Testing Facilities and Home Care companies' proof that sufficient data has been recorded during oxygen verification testing; preventing unnecessary trips for repeat recordings, reducing costs, and improving overall efficiencies."

Nonin is demonstrating the MVI mode in the Model 3150 WristOx2 at the Medtrade Spring Conference in Las Vegas, March 11-13, in booth number 1009.

Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center and Cornerstone Health Care Join in Unique Affiliation

Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center Logo. (PRNewsFoto/Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center)jwplayer.key="2kY/GKwZ2uQZmDlQ9VYArfZt2b4+KhHX3+DM4zisgtE=";WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., Nov. 14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center today announced that it has entered into a first-of-its-kind strategic affiliation agreement in the Triad with Cornerstone Health Care, P.A. through its wholly-owned management services organization Cornerstone Health Enablement Strategic Solutions, LLC (CHESS).

The goal of the affiliation is to better position both partners for new models of health care delivery driven by health care reform. Both organizations describe the future as one that will emphasize value health care delivery and population management across diseases, such as managing large populations of patients with diabetes or heart failure using a variety of innovative technologies. These future models could allow patients to access support services such as case management, home-based care, weight management and a variety of customized services to support groups of patients with specific diseases or shared characteristics. 

The affiliation supports Wake Forest Baptist's mission to improve health throughout the region. John D. McConnell, M.D., chief executive officer of Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, called the agreement a strategic partnership whose time had come and was driven by a shared vision of patient-centered care that goes beyond the normal boundaries of a hospital or doctor's office. "It is crucial in this challenging health care environment for multiple health care providers to join together and assume accountability for managing and improving health care," McConnell said. "Through better care coordination, we plan to provide more integrated care with fewer duplicated services, increased patient access to support services, and lower total health care costs."

Grace Terrell, M.D., chief executive officer for Cornerstone Health Care, said, "This is the first-of-its-kind Triad partnership between an academic medical center and an independent, multi-specialty provider group. Our joint goal is to enhance the quality of patient care while decreasing overall health care costs by leveraging each organization's strengths to accomplish these objectives."

By partnering through CHESS, Wake Forest Baptist and Cornerstone Health Care immediately expand their capabilities to engage in population management and advanced analytics, with the additional expertise of a world-class research enterprise at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center. The synergies of these important elements will benefit a much larger group of patients, as well as create a highly-sophisticated accountable care organization (ACO) that will include high-performance networks (HPNs), clinical integration, research, innovative IT applications, support services and case management.

More information regarding the specifics of the affiliation will be provided as available.

Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center (wakehealth.edu) is a fully integrated academic medical center located in Winston-Salem, N.C. The institution comprises Wake Forest School of Medicine, a leading center for medical education and research; Wake Forest Baptist Health, the integrated clinical structure that includes nationally ranked Brenner Children's Hospital; Wake Forest Innovations, which promotes the commercialization of research discoveries and operates Wake Forest Innovation Quarter, an urban research and technology park; plus a network of affiliated community hospitals, physician practices, outpatient services and other medical facilities.
