Dear Donna:
I saw your article reprinted in the September AACN News "Electrocardiography Wires: A Potential Source of Infection" in which you quote me as saying that my telemetry and ICU areas had a zero nosocomial infection rate in the first four months. I wanted to give you an update on the infection rates in these areas, where we have been using your LifeSync® System since our opening in September of 2005. To date, and this is for over a year now, we still have experienced zero infection rates in these two areas. Since this is an extremely rare occurrence in the health care industry, and the disposable ECG leads we use in these areas are mainly what have set us apart from others in what we do here at St. Francis. I have to attribute a very large part of our success to your LifeSync® System. I look forward to our continued success in this partnership

Dear Ms. Brown:
I wanted to give you an update on how your product is performing for us, here in Bon Secours St. Francis Medical Center. As you know, when I first came to St. Francis, the LifeSync® System had been in use in St. Francis' ICU and Telemetry areas since the medical center opened in September of 2005. At that time, I was very impressed with the fact that these two areas were experiencing zero hospital acquired infection rates.
My subsequent decision to adopt the system throughout our surgical services areas has proved to be a judicious one in that we have, in the first four months of use of the LifeSync® System, decreased our surgical services infection rates by 40%. I would also add that, as of this date, there have been no central line infections or ventilator pneumonia recorded since inception of your system, plus we have not had a single SSI This month. As the LifeSync® System is the only practice that was changed during or just before that time period, I can only attribute the infection control benefits we have seen to your system.
I want to commend the LifeSync Corporation for developing a fine product that I believe will, due to the outstanding clinical benefits, become a standard of care.
