MDA TECHNOLOGIES SHOWCASES MDA TRANSQUEST AT ANIA CONFERENCE
Automated Wireless Patient Transport Dispatch System

Woodbridge, VA – April 25, 2006. Two MDA Technologies technical experts attended the American Nursing Infomatics Conference held in Nashville, TN recently to showcase MDA TransQuest, an automated Wireless Patient
Transport Dispatch System.

“It’s exciting to be able to reach the people that use patient transport systems every day. They are the ones that experience the frustrations when they can’t get patients moved quickly and efficiently. Therefore, they recognize the need for updated, automated systems.” said Tom Roebuck, Program Manager, MDA Technologies.

According to information published on the ANIA website, Labor Shortages is ranked at number nine on the list of Top 10 Issues for Health Industries in 2006, reinforcing the need for advanced technology to help hospitals and other health facilities maintain their high standards of care.

With the MDA TransQuest, transport requests are entered on the hospital intranet. These requests along with pertinent patient information are received by transporters equipped with a standard wireless Personal Digital Assistant(PDA) system. A transporter accepts a dispatch and completes the task. All transport data is recorded while the
system remains available to other transporters.

The wireless system automatically prioritizes and schedules transport requests; improves the accuracy of pick-up times; and automatically assigns requests to the next available transporter, eliminating dedicated transport dispatch personnel and freeing them up for other duties.
