OxySure (OXYS) Announces CE Mark Approval for OxySure Model 615 Portable Emergency Oxygen Device
Frisco, Texas, USA, April 2, 2014 – OxySure Systems, Inc. (OXYS: OTCQB) (“OxySure,” or the “Company”), a global leader and medical device innovator of life-saving, easy-to-use emergency oxygen solutions with its “oxygen from powder” technology is pleased to announce its OxySure Model 615 portable emergency oxygen device has received CE Mark approval, a critical step toward launching this unique product into the thirty countries belonging to the European Economic Area (EEA).
The OxySure Model 615 enables lay persons, from bystanders to family members, to administer medical oxygen easily and quickly in any medical emergency, while waiting for paramedics or first responders to arrive on the scene.
“We are excited to introduce our innovative, lifesaving product to the European market,” said Julian T. Ross, CEO of OxySure. “Our product can now bear the CE Mark, which demonstrates that the OxySure Model 615 complies with stringent requirements related to the quality, safety, and performance of medical oxygen devices found in the applicable EU laws.”
Model 615 has already been used in connection with thousands of saves in the US alone including cardiac arrest, asthma attacks, sickle cell disease issues, COPD exacerbations, allergy attacks, heat exhaustion, hypoxia/altitude sickness, migraine attacks, poisoning and diabetic emergencies. Like the US, European first responders typically provide supplemental oxygen to patients immediately upon arrival. OxySure’s Model 615 allows lay rescuers to begin oxygen delivery sooner, bridging the gap until professional responders arrive on the scene.
