International exhibition MEDICA-2014

Traditionally, Medicom MTD took part in the international exhibition MEDICA-2014 in Dusseldorf, Germany.

Medica is the world's largest specialized exhibition of the medical industry, included in the top ten most important exhibitions in the world, which showcases the best achievements in the field of innovation, production of high-tech medical equipment and tools, laboratory and diagnostic equipment, medical devices and materials. The high status of the event ensures the presence of a large number of top management representatives. According to last year, 93% of visitors have the right to make decisions.

MEDICA 2014 was carried out for the 46th time and impressed guests and participants with its scale. 4,500 participants from 70 countries exhibited in 17 halls with a total area of 115,000 square meters.

Annual participation in MEDICA is very important for "Medicom MTD". We always pay close attention to all recent medical innovations. MEDICA is an opportunity for us to share the experience with foreign colleagues and get new ideas and trends in order to apply them to our manufacturing.

Commerce is no less important component of exhibition activity. At the exhibition, our staff members find potential customers and partners, and communicate with the users of our devices and software. Exhibitors and visitors gathered in Dusseldorf from all over the world. This year, our company established business relations with the specialists from Argentina, Germany, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Italy, China and Taiwan. We were glad to discuss both operation and update features of the established products and our new diagnostic equipment:

• Portable electroencephalograph-recorder "Encephalan-EEGR-19/26" working in telemetric and autonomous mode;
• Cerebral function monitor "Encephalan-CFM" applied in intensive care units and neonatology;
• Polysomnographs of different levels (from devices for apnea screening to high-level sleep laboratories);
• EEG videomonitoring equipment and our new video recorder working in autonomous mode and providing video record synchronized with EEG;
• EEG-electrode sets (electrode caps) providing high quality record and patient's comfort during continuous study;
• Biofeedback and neurofeedback equipment used both in the field and doctor’s office;
• Objective psychological analysis and testing system providing a rapid assessment of psychophysiological state of an individual or a large group;
• Mobile multifunctional systems for scientific research and sports medicine. They were effectively used at high altitude and on Paralympic Games in Sochi (by sports doctors of the Russian Paralympic team).

We are grateful to those who helped us in the event implementation, visit our stand and have been working with us for so many years.

Presentation of the equipment by "Medicom MTD" Ltd in India

From October 6 to 12, representatives of our company were on a trip to India where they conducted presentations and workshops with the help of Volant Technologies at the following scientific centers:

• State Institute of Mental Health (Rohtak);
• Jamia Millia Islamia Central University (New Delhi);
• Lakshmibai National University of Physical Education (Gwalior).

The functionality of Medicom MTD equipment for biofeedback and neurofeedback applied in the treatment of anxiety and depression, for performance improvement in high-performance sports, as well as functionality of equipment for psychophysiology and neurophysiology was demonstrated during the presentations.

A two-day workshop on operation of Medicom MTD equipment was held at the Lakshmibai National University of Physical Education and was the most numerous in the number of participants (more than 200).

Recertification audit has been successfully completed

Medicom MTD has successfully passed the recertification audit and confirmed compliance of products quality and equipment protection level with international standards ISO 9001 and ISO 13485.

The audit was carried out by British Standards Institution (BSI), one of the leading certification organizations.

Audit certified high level of design, development, production, sale and after-sales service of our medical equipment. ISO Certificates were extended for three years.

Sleep studies at high altitude

Our devices are on top again both in the figurative and literal senses.

Physiology Department at the Institute of Arid Zones, Southern Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, has carried out a scientific expedition in the Caucasus mountains (Mount Musat-Cherie, 3012 meters above sea level) led by Eugeny Verbitsky, Doctor of Biological Sciences, professor (head of the Physiology Department) and Victor Voynov, Doctor of Biological Sciences (leading researcher of the Physiology Department).

The aim of the expedition was to study of mechanisms of high-altitude adaptation in humans by taking into account the effect of acute adaptation to high-altitude hypoxia on night’s sleep phenomena.

Portable electroencephalograph-recorder "Encephalan-EEGR-19/26" for EEG recording via 19 channels with additional wireless modules for synchronous recording of respiration parameters and different physiological signals was used in the study.

Interesting experimental data, which will be analyzed by scientists by means of "Encephalan-PSG" Software, were obtained in the expedition.
