With this most recent venture, Wyndgate and Siemens continue to strengthen their ongoing relationship and bring further benefits to their mutual customers. "There were many considerations in choosing to replace our existing transfusion service system with Wyndgate's SafeTrace Tx information system," commented Richard L. Wong CLS, MT (ASCP), Administrative Director of the Clinical Laboratory at Dameron. Mr. Wong continued, "One key consideration was that the system is integrated with Siemens NOVIUS(R) Lab. Another consideration particular to SafeTrace Tx was its Patient-At-A-Glance Bar(TM) safety feature, which displays special transfusion requirements, antibodies, history of transfusion reactions, and the availability of current specimens or autologous donations. Another factor in our decision was Wyndgate's support of 'point-of-care' positive patient identifications systems." Wm. Scott Dustin, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Wyndgate Technologies, said, "Dameron Hospital is committed to high standards for technological superiority and provides its community with quality, advanced healthcare. Wyndgate is pleased that its SafeTrace Tx system will be supporting Dameron's staff as they uphold these values." Mr. Dustin also stated, "Our relationship with Siemens continues to grow and prosper. We value all of our partnerships and the benefits they deliver to our customers. We look forward to further collaborations with Siemens in 2006."
