Researchers from the University of Hawaii Present Scientific Validation That Cyclic Variations in Altitude Conditioning(TM) (CVAC) Produces Significant High-Altitude Adaptation in Exposures of One Hour a Day for Five Days a Week.TEMECULA, Calif. -- Data presented at the 53rd annual meeting of the American College of Sports Medicine '''Founded in 1954, the AMERICAN COLLEGE OF SPORTS MEDICINE is the largest sports medicine and exercise science organization in the world. More than 20,000 international, national and regional members are dedicated to advancing and integrating scientific research to provide educational (ACSM ACSM American College of Sports Medicine. ) CVAC Systems Inc. (www.cvacsystems.com) announced today that data presented by Ronald K. Hetzler, Ph.D., FACSM FACSM Fellow of the American College of Sports Medicine. FACSM abbr.

(Manoa), demonstrated a significant acclimation acclimation /ac·cli·ma·tion/ (ak?li-ma´shun) the process of becoming accustomed to a new environment. ac·cli·ma·tion n. 1. in elite athletes in exposures of one hour a day for five days a week. Dr. Hetzler presented the results at the 53rd annual meeting of the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM). "These data, collected in our laboratory at the University of Hawaii, achieved significance demonstrating that elite athletes using CVAC achieved high-altitude acclimatization acclimatization Any of numerous gradual, long-term responses of an individual organism to changes in its environment. The responses are more or less habitual and reversible should conditions revert to an earlier state. in exposures of one hour a day five days a week," stated Dr. Hetzler, the principal investigator for the study. "Because the exposure time was so short, these data suggest that athletes using CVAC do not have to trade off the benefits of high-altitude acclimation versus impairment of recovery," said Allen J. Ruszkowski, President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of CVAC Systems. "Spending time at high altitude before training at low altitude is well-established to result in a marked improvement in athletic performance. Moreover, CVAC's unique potential to improve tissue oxygenation oxygenation /ox·y·gen·a·tion/ (ok?si-je-na´shun) 1. the act or process of adding oxygen. 2. the result of having oxygen added. , enhance lymph, organ and glandular function, as well as reduce inflammation suggests that CVAC's use in therapeutic applications could be very broad once we obtain the necessary data and approvals." CVAC Systems will be presenting on Thursday at 10:50 a.m. PDT, June 22, during Medtech Insight and Windhover Information's "In3 Medical Device Summit" conference, to be held June 21-23, 2006, at The Palace Hotel in San Francisco. CVAC Systems is headquartered in Temecula, Calif. The Company is privately funded and is currently negotiating a strategic partnership in the physical therapy and rehabilitation sector. The Company seeks to place CVAC instruments at key luminary research sites for the development of performance enhancement and therapeutic health-related applications in several patent-pending applications. For these plans, the Company is seeking a first-round venture/institutional financing.
