Star Navigation Announces STAR-LSAMM Land Ambulance System

Star Navigation Systems Group Ltd. (CSE:SNA) (CSE:SNA.CN) (OTCQB:SNAVF) (“Star” or the “Company”) recently announced that its R&D Department had completed development of its new In-Flight System Aided Medical Monitoring system (“STAR-ISAMM™”) for helicopter MEDEVAC applications (See June 4th News Release). Star is again pleased to announce that its R&D Department has now completed development of its Land System Aided Medical Monitoring system (“STAR-LSAMM™”) for ground ambulance applications. Utilizing Star’s patented STAR-A.D.S. ® technology, (on-board, real-time flight data monitoring and tracking system), STAR-LSAMM™ directly addresses the need to improve the transmission of the medical data of a patient to a hospital, while still in transit. The ground STAR-LSAMM™ unit is smaller, lighter, and perfectly adapted to a ground transportation environment, while the STAR-ISAMM™ is for airborne applications.

The STAR-LSAMM™ system interfaces with existing bio-medical equipment aboard the Emergency Service Ground Vehicle. 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.

Star is in discussions with several individuals in the Emergency Medical Service industry. These recent breakthroughs in Star’s technology have garnered the interest of some large companies operating in that field.

The STAR-LSAMM™ prototype has been successfully demonstrated and Star expects that this will significantly enhance:
Interfacing with EMS, 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-LSAMM™ system upon receipt of regulatory approvals.

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