INCAP AND SPEKTIKOR LAUNCH COOPERATION IN MANUFACTURE OF DISPOSABLE ECG
INDICATOR
Incap Corporation and Spektikor Oy have signed an agreement on the manufacture
of electronic subassemblies for ECG indicators utilising completely new
technology.
ECG indicators developed by Spektikor Oy are intended for health care
professionals to ease their work in situations of first aid and follow-up
monitoring. Spektikor's device visualises the patient's heart beat with a LED
light, and therefore the heart beat can be monitored also from a distance
without physical scanning of the patient's heart beat and without interrupting
another on-going treatment. When developing the ECG indicators Spektikor has
cooperated with the Oulu University Hospital, the Finnish Defence Forces, the
Unit of Health and Social care at Oulu University of Applied Sciences as well as
with TEKES (the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation ) and the
Foundation for Finnish inventions.
Volume deliveries from Incap to Spektikor will start during the year 2013. The
subassemblies are manufactured at Incap's factory in Kuressaare, which is having
the quality certificate meeting with the standard ISO 13485:2003 for the
manufacture of medical instruments.
Jari Koppelo, Director, Business Units at Incap Corporation: "Spektikor is a
start-up enterprise with an innovative product and good growth prospects. In
line with our strategy we are looking for cooperation with companies like
Spektikor, who are operating in the well-being sector and have a good product,
and whose objective is to operate with a manufacturing partner in the industrial
production of their product."
Kari Kivistö, CEO of Spektikor: "We are satisfied to have found a manufacturing
partner like Incap for our product. The ability to deliver and produce high
quality are important features to us. Further prerequisite is that the partner
is capable of manufacturing health care products."
