Environmental Tectonics Corporation’s BioMedical Systems Division Awarded Contract for Multiple Monoplace Chambers

SOUTHAMPTON, Pa., June 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Environmental Tectonics Corporation’s (“ETC” or the “Company”) BioMedical Systems division today announced the sale of seven (7) BARA-MED(R) XD Monoplace Hyperbaric Chambers to Med One Capital for placement at four (4) facilities associated with Haelen Hyperbarics.

ETC is delighted to work with Haelen Hyperbarics, a growing network of physician operated Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) clinics. Haelen Hyperbarics also provides physicians with turn-key HBOT solutions to incorporate the therapy into their existing medical practices throughout the United States.

ETC prides itself on being the only manufacturer of a computerized monoplace hyperbaric chamber. The BARA-MED(R) XD includes a 4th generation Windows(TM) based operating system. This computerized system eliminates the need for operator dive time management and paper recordkeeping while ensuring comprehensive and unassailable documentation of the procedure. These features enable technicians to focus their attention on patient care and management, making them more effective and efficient.

Don Webber of ETC’s BioMedical Division commented, “We are encouraged with the sales we have experienced during our 1st fiscal quarter.”

The BioMedical Division continues to evolve its HBOT applications. The BARA-MED and BARA-MED XD are examples of ETC’s ability to combine practical value with state-of-the-art technology.
