Released Products with Masimo SET technology: ZOLL Medical Corporation 32 Second Avenue Burlington, MA 01803-4420 USA (617) 229-0020 (617) 229-0566 Fax www.zoll.com mSeries On April 29, 1997, Masimo Corporation and ZOLL Medical Corporation announced a licensing agreement under which ZOLL will integrate Masimo’s pulse oximetry signal processing and sensor technologies into its current and future products. ZOLL is a leading manufacturer of defibrillation and monitoring products world-wide and is adopting Masimo Signal Extraction Technology (Masimo SET®) as its primary pulse oximetry platform.  “Our goal at ZOLL is to improve the standard of care delivered by our customers by understanding their needs and engineering the best possible solutions,” commented Richard Packer, President, ZOLL Medical Corporation. “The problems of motion artifact, low blood flow and high ambient light interference have been so acute for traditional pulse oximetry technologies, that they have limited the effectiveness of pulse oximetry in emergency field applications. We see Masimo SET as the enabling factor in bringing more effective pulse oximetry monitoring to our customers.”  Joe E. Kiani, President and CEO of Masimo Corporation, stated, “ZOLL is well recognized as an innovative supplier of advanced therapeutic and diagnostic monitoring equipment tailored to meet the stringent requirements of the paramedic and EMT practitioner. Our partnership with ZOLL is a further indication that Masimo SET is becoming the new standard in pulse oximetry for monitoring patients at risk of respiratory complications. We are delighted to have ZOLL as a long term partner and look forward to working with ZOLL to expand the utility of pulse oximetry to new sites and applications.”  ZOLL Medical Corporation designs, manufactures, and markets an integrated line of proprietary, noninvasive cardiac resuscitation devices and disposable electrodes. Used by health care professionals to provide both types of cardiac resuscitation-pacing and defibrillation-these products are essential in the emergency treatment of cardiac arrest victims both inside and outside the hospital. ZOLL also designs and markets software which automates collection and management of both clinical and non-clinical data for emergency medical service providers.
