SCHEDULE A
THE TECHNOLOGY
CorlinkTM is an advanced telemetric system used to transmit, analyze, report and store all types and variations of physiological studies. It was originally designed for use with ECG Xxxxxx studies, but recent advancements in state of the art mobile device technology has extended its usefulness and the overall demand. Current protocol for the monitoring of cardiac patients require that the patient is connected to a Xxxxxx Recorder in 24-48 hour intervals at which time the patient is needed to return to their Doctors office or Hospital to have the Halter unhooked and analyzed. Depending on the extent of the Patient’s medical condition, this process could be repeated over the course of two weeks or more consecutively for patients having more complicated symptoms, such cardiac event monitor can be worn for a month or more. Existing Xxxxxx Recorder are large and bulky, usually measuring 3”x 7”x 2” and with no wireless capabilities, making everyday life very challenging.
CoreLinkTM was designed to provide the modern universal Telemedical diagnostics platform, where vital data is streamed from remote devices to Doctors anywhere in the world with mille-metric precision and effectiveness over CorTronixTM Technologies’ cutting edge Cloud based platform. This highly intelligent proprietary network will combine mobile devices with the company’s powerful Internet protocols creating a new paradigm through remote medical diagnostics. With “Doctor to Patient” confidentiality in mind, CorLinkTM was created using .NET framework with high-level encryption, allowing information to flow instantaneously. These factors allow for CorTronixTM to integrate the CorLinkTM platform seamlessly into other industries such as the Military Hospitals, Emergency Services, and other industries where “real time” vital information is essential.
CorTronixTM Cloud based integrated technology will pioneer a new, progressive environment, providing the catalyst for medical advancements in Telemedical Patient Care globally, which will have an immeasurable impact on the future.
