Pyng Medical’s T-PODResponder Pelvic Device Awarded Hot Product of 2014 by JEMS
Vancouver, BC (PRWEB) June 25, 2014 -- Pyng Medical Corp. (PYT:TSX.V), an award-winning developer of trauma and resuscitation products for emergency, combat and critical care personnel, announces that its new T-PODResponder Pelvic Stabilization Device was awarded the Hot Products title for 2014 by the Journal of Emergency Medical Services (JEMS). The award recognizes the best new products for emergency medical services (EMS) launched within the eight months prior to the EMS Today Conference, which was held in Washington, DC on February 6-8, 2014.
“Our medical and engineering team at Pyng worked hard to develop a new pelvic stabilization product that took the well-accepted features of the original T-POD device and enhanced them to better meet the specific needs of first responders in the field,” said Pyng CEO Mark Hodge. “We’re thrilled that such a respected organization as JEMS has validated these efforts and endorsed T-PODResponder as one of the top products for 2014 in the EMS market.”
T-PODResponder, the newest pelvic stabilization device from Pyng Medical, provides EMS personnel with the critical ability to quickly and easily stabilize the pelvic ring in patients that have suspected pelvic fractures and possible internal bleeding. T-PODResponder can be quickly applied in the field by one person using an easy-to-tighten pulley system. With a highly flexible design, T-PODResponder is small and compact, is one-size-fits-all, and can remain on through MRI, X-Ray and CT scans.
Additional benefits of T-PODResonder include:
• 100% radiolucent. T-PODResponder is designed without the use of metal so it does not have to be removed for MRI, X-Ray and CT scans.
• Compact and lightweight design to better fit into your emergency bag.
• Using a unique mechanical advantage pulley system, T-PODResponder ensures simultaneous, symmetrical compression, where and when needed—placing control of the tightening process in the hands of providers.
• Early pre-hospital pelvic immobilization using T-PODResponder reduces morbidity, mortality, blood loss, the need for blood transfusions and hospital length of stay.
