LONE TREE, Colo., September 23, 2015 — Zynex (OTCQB: ZYXI), an innovative medical technology company specializing in the manufacture and sale of non-invasive medical devices for pain management, stroke rehabilitation, cardiac and neurological diagnostics, and compound pharmacy, announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Zynex Monitoring Solutions Inc., has filed an application with the Food and Drug Administration pursuant to Section 510(k) of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act for clearance of its new CM1500 monitoring device. The CM1500 is capable of monitoring a patient’s fluid levels, including blood loss, during surgery and in recovery.
Thomas Sandgaard, Zynex CEO stated: “We are excited to have reached the point of applying for FDA clearance for our revolutionary device that will enable surgical personnel to non-invasively monitor blood loss in real time. We have begun placing initial production units in hospitals for field testing and validation.” Sandgaard went on to say, “Undetected blood loss continues to be a significant risk during surgery and recovery, and current approaches are either too invasive or lacking precision and early predictive capability for blood loss and intervention. The CM1500 will reduce the risk of blood loss going undetected.”
