“Biotronik is a prestigious and trusted cardiovascular solutions technology provider in the industry, and this distribution agreement will not only allow us to expand access to MoMe Kardia nationwide, but reinforces that leaders in our market recognize the clinical value of the system,” Stuart Long, CEO of InfoBionic, said in a statement. “Through this partnership we will enable more physicians and practices to take back ownership of ambulatory cardiac monitoring services so that they can speed decision making and diagnosis and provide a better patient experience.”

Franciscan Health Emergency Department Indianapolis has recently implemented a new system called Twiage, a service that allows EMTS and paramedics to collect and send data to hospitals through a smartphone. The department is one of two Indiana healthcare systems to use the app. 

"The prehospital patient care environment can be stressful and noisy, which makes it a challenge to relay accurate information to the hospital before the patient arrives; the hospital needs to know we are coming, but we also have a patient who needs our attention," Jon Kavanagh, paramedic and EMS liaison for Franciscan Health Indianapolis, said in a hospital article about the announcement. "Twiage propels emergency communications into the 21st century."
