TORONTO, June 04, 2018 – Star Navigation Systems Group Ltd. (CSE:SNA) (CSE:SNA.CN) (OTCQB:SNAVF) (“Star” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its R&D Department has completed development of its In-Flight System Aided Medical Monitoring system (“STAR-ISAMM™â€). Utilizing Star’s patented STAR-A.D.S. ® System, (an on-board, real-time flight data monitoring and tracking system), STAR-ISAMM™ directly addresses the need to improve the in-flight transmission to a hospital of medical data concerning an on-board emergency patient.

The STAR-ISAMM™ system interfaces with existing bio-medical equipment aboard the MEDEVAC helicopter. It securely transmits the patients’ vital signs and other critical information directly to receiving hospital physicians through SATCOM or GSM, as well as providing tracking and location of the vehicle. This allows the early assessment and initiation of the best possible care plan, well before the patient arrives. While the most obvious application is to Helicopter Emergency Medical Services, the System is equally adaptable to both ambulance and commercial airline usage.

In response to discussions with the Emergency Medical Service industry, Star’s R&D Department has been working on this project for several years. Recent breakthroughs in Star’s technology have led to today’s announcement.

The STAR-ISAMM™ prototype has already been demonstrated and Star expects that this will significantly enhance:

  • Interfacing with EMS, in the air and on the ground, improving on scene care and care in transit.
  • Providing better patient care with a seamless hospital virtual environment. The patient will be already ‘admitted’ to the hospital care service while being transported.

Star intends to start fielding the STAR-ISAMM™ system this year, starting with the helicopter EMS segment.

Star’s R&D department will continue to rapidly develop the system, with the addition of new features through technological evolution.
