   Press Release for H1N1 - Swine flu influenza

President, GS Technology Co., Ltd.

The Unified Military Hospital of South Korea received the first Korean traveler who was supposedly exposed to the newly found deadly virus of H1N1, formerly known as ¡®Swine Influenza¡¯. This traveler was found during the airport screening for incoming passengers in April and was sent to the Unified Military Hospital which was close to the airport. Doctors and nurses at the hospital were extremely uncomfortable to attend this patient on daily basis because nothing much was known about the virus as well as the patient.

As a precautionary measure, healthcare professionals were required to wear protective gears, and this makes their job even more difficult. Especially, it is almost imp0ssible for them to hear patient body sounds, because conventional stethoscopes do not function adequately with protective gears and clothes.

Then the Hospital called G.S. Technology on May 13, 2009 and asked for help. As a body sound specialty company, GS Technology responded promptly and created a custom stethoscope which will meet the needs of N1H1 virus patients and healthcare-givers.

With newly created custom body sound monitoring system using existing JABES Electronic Stethoscope¢ç, doctors and nurses at the Unified Military Hospital was able to hear patients vital body sounds such as lung and heart sounds clearly and safely. Not only that, doctors at the Unified Military Hospital could share what they heard with the doctors at other hospitals and research institutes in real time for consultation, teaching and research.

We have had several global virus epidemics such as AI, SARS and N1H1 in recent years. The most heartbreaking story during the difficult times of these epidemics is unnecessary loss of people which is caused by lack of proper equipment. GS Technology is very proud to be a part of brave act of preventing any unnecessary loss of valuable human lives, whether it is a patient or healthcare-givers. This story tells one more time that how JABES Electronic Stethoscope and GS Technology¡¯s commitment for service can be used for saving people lives.
