Zoll receives Japanese approval for AutoPulse support pump
A Medical Device Daily Staff Report
ZOLL Medical (Chelmsford, Massachusetts), a manufacturer of resuscitation devices and related software solutions, reported receiving approval from the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) to market its AutoPulse Non-invasive Cardiac Support Pump to hospitals and emergency medical services in that country.
The product will be sold through its exclusive distributor in Japan, Nihon Kohden (Tokyo), Japan's largest distributor of medical equipment. In May 2006, ZOLL announced a five-year agreement with Nihon Kohden to market and sell the AutoPulse in Japan (Medical Device Daily, May, 26, 2006).
"We are pleased to help bring this new CPR assist device to hospitals and emergency personnel in Japan," said Masami Sugiyama, general manager of Import Business Operations, Nihon Kohden. "We believe that this technology has great potential to help professional rescuers improve resuscitation efforts."
There are an estimated 9,500 hospitals and 88,000 clinics in Japan. In addition, Japan's Fire and Disaster Management Agency notes that there are about 900 fire defense headquarters around Japan staffed with special rescue teams to provide emergency services.
