SUN VALLEY, Calif., Aug. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- XTend Medical Corporation (Pink Sheets: XMDC), a company that delivers cutting-edge telemedicine solutions to the healthcare industry, has secured the exclusive global distribution rights to DDI's Vibration Device for Pre-Screening of Diabetic Neuropathy.
The company released the following statement: "XTend Medical is pleased to announce that we have secured the global distribution rights to DDI's patented vibration technology device, now in its fourth generation. Once the FDA has cleared the device for sale, we will immediately begin marketing the product to our managed care companies and the various physicians and patients here in the U.S. We're also in negotiations to market the product in South Korea and Europe based on their separate criteria needs for final approval. Once these are received, then we'll target these markets heavily. Although the device can pre-screen people that may have diabetic neuropathy, the first signs that diabetes may be present, it also assists the current diabetic patient with monitoring their neuropathy levels so their disease is managed correctly. We anticipate this device to bring in additional sales upwards of $5 million per year in the U.S. and possibly three times that amount globally," stated Mr. Paul D. Lisenby, CEO of XTend Medical.
