International Technidyne to Acquire Blood Analysis System

(Roseville, MN, USA) for around US$5 million has been announced by International Technidyne (ITC, Edison, NJ, USA).

The IRMA system allows intermittent testing of a broad range of critical care tests, including blood gases in the operating room or at patient's bedside. Blood gas monitoring is performed during and after surgery to detect changes in oxygenation and ventilation. ITC develops and markets medical devices used in point-of-care coagulation monitoring in operating rooms and cardiac catheterization labs, microcoagulation system products to monitor the effects of oral anticoagulation, and products for fingerstick, infant-heel incision, and bleeding-time measurements.

"This is a superb match as both companies' product offerings are used by operating rooms, critical and intensive care units, and point-of-care coordinators,” said Larry Cohen, president of ITC. "With the completion of this transaction, ITC will be able to offer a full line of coagulation assays and critical care tests.”
