Mediana Obtains Manufacturing Approval for Patient Monitoring and Ultrasound Converged Medical Devices

[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunseok Yoo] Mediana announced on the 12th that it has obtained manufacturing approval for the converged medical device ‘M50s,’ which combines a patient monitoring device and ultrasound equipment. The ultrasound module of this model was developed through a technical partnership with an ultrasound specialist company.

This product is characterized by the ability to check the patient's vital signs and ultrasound images on a single screen. Ultrasound scanning is possible without patient movement or equipment replacement during vital sign monitoring. A company official explained, “It can provide high-quality medical care not only in operating rooms, intensive care units, and wards but also in environments with spatial and temporal constraints such as emergency rooms and ambulances.”

The ‘M50s’ was developed over a research period of about two years in collaboration with an ultrasound specialist company. A company official said, “By adopting high-performance transducers and image processing technology, it supports clearer and cleaner ultrasound images and Doppler information,” adding, “High-quality ultrasound images will facilitate position confirmation during procedures such as internal tube insertion and drug injection, as well as the identification of internal bleeding and fractures at emergency sites.”

Mediana continuously exchanged opinions with medical field professionals for the development of this model. A company official stated, “To appropriately respond to the rapid changes in the medical environment, we consulted clinical doctors at university hospitals and received excellent evaluations regarding the performance and convenience of the M50s,” and explained, “This model is expected to see increased demand due to its wide range of applications and the effect of reducing equipment introduction and operation costs.”

Gil Munjong, Chairman of Mediana, said, “We will continue to develop the technology of our medical devices through steady research and cooperation and strive to pioneer the market,” adding, “We will make efforts to maintain the sales growth trend by launching marketable products.”
