Inviro Medical Devices to Introduce New InviroSNAP!® with InviroSTRIPE At American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA) Annual Meeting

Infection Control Company's InviroSTRIPE Feature Revolutionizes Syringe Labeling and Helps Reduce Opportunity for Medication Errors

ATLANTA - July 30, 2007 - Inviro Medical Devices (www.inviromedical.com), this week announced that it will showcase the new InviroSNAP!® with InviroSTRIPE at the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists' (AANA) annual meeting in Denver in August. The revolutionary safety syringe features an integral write-on stripe that allows annotation of critical information directly onto the syringe barrel, helping to reduce opportunity for medication errors.

"The InviroSNAP! with InviroSTRIPE is a unique safety syringe that addresses several key concerns in the healthcare industry, namely patient safety and the reduction of medication errors due to mislabeling," says Gareth Clarke, chief executive officer of Inviro Medical Devices. "Considering the impact of these issues on nurse anesthetists' daily routines, we think that the attendees of the AANA meeting should be a responsive audience."

The innovative InviroSTRIPE write-on stripe enables clear annotation of critical patient safety information as per facility protocol. It eliminates the need for stick-on labels that tend to inhibit syringes from functioning or being used properly. The InviroSTRIPE feature also helps address the Joint Commission's medication labeling requirements, which were created in response to the high number of medication errors in the healthcare industry. Further aiding patient safety, the InviroSNAP! with InviroSTRIPE safety syringe enhances visibility of gradations, enabling healthcare professionals to view the dosage amount more clearly.

The annual AANA meeting brings nurse anesthetists from around the nation together for specialized training workshops, industry discussions and educational seminars. Healthcare and medical suppliers attend the AANA event to showcase cutting-edge products that enable anesthetists to perform their jobs more efficiently.
