BOULDER, Colo.--(BW HealthWire)--May 29, 2001

Colorado MEDtech, Inc. (Nasdaq:CMED), a Boulder, Colorado-based provider of advanced medical technology outsourcing services and medical imaging products, has announced that it will exhibit a demonstration of wireless connectivity technologies in a hospital intensive care unit setting at Booth 2539 of the Medical Design and Manufacturing East Exposition and Conference (MDM East 2001) to be held on June 5, 6 and 7 at the Jacob Javits Center in New York, New York.

Titled "Exploring the Future of Medical Device Connectivity," the exhibit introduces Colorado MEDtech's design and development capabilities regarding wireless technologies and medical device connectivity applications. At MDM East 2001, Colorado MEDtech will be demonstrating benefits to both medical device manufacturers and health care providers. Additionally, Colorado MEDtech will display their Link IT(TM) technology that connects existing medical instrumentation to the Internet and Hospital Information Systems.

Featured is a communications technology platform for both monitoring and controlling multiple devices, including vital signs monitors, IV pumps, other diagnostic and therapeutic devices using wireless networking (IEEE 802.11) and web-based technologies.

One of the unique features on display is the use of remote monitors and mobile devices such as hand-held PDAs and web pads to control all medical devices in the hospital room setting. Colorado MEDtech expects that this technology can be applied to both existing instruments in the hospital and future medical devices, and promises to reduce the client's development and product costs.

Bill Wood, Senior Vice President, Product Development and Technology: "I believe future medical devices will be impacted by several technology trends becoming apparent today. These trends include wireless interconnection leading to mobile user interfaces and server-based medical devices leading to unique instrument platforms for cost-effective instrument usage. Additionally, we expect to implement the smart delivery of patient information to the healthcare decision-makers wherever they may be at any time. We are developing these technologies to better serve our clients."

CMED will be displaying the Concept Instrument at Booth No. 2539.
