Guadalajara, Mexico | June 17th, 2020 -- Those who wish to get bariatric surgery in Mexico can now do so at a Mayo Clinic affiliated hospital.

Many patients seek bariatric surgery in countries like Mexico in order to get high quality care, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and have their surgeries performed by US-trained surgeons, all without the high costs associated with American hospitals.

ALO Bariatrics is now proud to announce their partner hospital, Centro Médico Puerta de Hierro now has the support of the Mayo Clinic Care Network.

The Mayo Clinic Care Network is a select group of independent health systems that all work closely with Mayo Clinic. This way, these hospitals can provide higher quality healthcare and serve their patients and communities more adequately.

"By providing a second medical opinion, we at Centro Médico Puerta de Hierro are now capable of providing our patients the advantage of broader diagnostic results supported by the advice and expertise of Mayo Clinic. Mayo Clinic specialists are not only prestigious in the U.S., but around the world," says Alejandro Gil Luna, general director, Centro Médico Puerta de Hierro.

Mayo Clinic, one of the world’s most well-renowned hospitals and home to the world’s best doctors and researchers, founded the Mayo Clinic Care Network in order to improve the delivery of care in hospitals worldwide. Hospitals that are part of the Mayo Clinic Care Network get special access to the extensive knowledge and medical expertise that Mayo Clinic has developed over a century.

This includes eConsults, which allows for partner hospitals to ask Mayo Clinic specialists about a specific patients care; AskMayoExpert, which gives partners access to Mayo’s own information on treatment and care guidelines and protocols; and Inpatient Telephone Consults, which allows for providers to ask questions about a hospitalized patient that needs urgent intervention.

Overall, Centro Médico Puerta de Hierro’s membership in the Mayo Clinic Care Network gives patients the peace of mind knowing that they’re being cared for by Mayo Clinic vetted experts and get the support of one of the world’s leading hospitals.

As states and cities begin to re-open throughout the United States, contact tracing has become one of the most important public health measures in the fight against the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Public health departments are now tasked to rapidly implement tracing programs and hire and train enough contact tracers to address emerging cases.

The 4MedPlus Online Training Corporation has developed a comprehensive entry-level contact tracing certificate program. It includes interview skill building, a real-world digital form practice tool and covers all recommended guidelines for contact tracing education. It is also the only accredited online program that includes a valid certificate of proficiency, a professional badge/seal and optional national CE credit for nursing professionals.

"The contact tracer has the ability to drastically alter the course of the virus trajectory by breaking the chain of infection and isolating those at risk of infection due to prior exposure." says Dr. Gregory Hanson, MD, MPH; subject matter expert and contributing editor for the new course "There will likely be a very large number of tracers required to meet demand while we attempt to jump start the economy in a safe manner."

What sets the 4MedPlus course apart from others, is it's focus on real-world interview samples coupled with hands-on digital practice lessons. The flexibility of delivery allows educational institutions and health organizations to host the training in their own learning management systems or provide access using a co-branded hub in the 4MedProPlus platform. It is available as a standalone course or may be bundled with basic HIPAA and Infection Prevention training for non-healthcare candidates. Volume wholesale licensing is available. 

Salary ranges for this position are reported to offer between $40k and $70k (depending upon region and experience) with both short-term and long-term opportunities opening up in all parts of the country. Public health officials say contact tracing allows for a slowdown of the virus without having to implement long-term mass stay-at-home orders, as infections in the U.S. register in the millions. Preparation for this important role through comprehensive training will be a key component of it's ultimate success.

FDA-approved LG displays work with Perfectlum software and include all necessary software and certifications to meet strict New York and New York City requirements

Wilmington,DE, June 6, 2020 - QUBYX Medical Solution LLC today announced the immediate availability of advanced medical displays from LG Electronics, which are each bundled with Qubyx PerfectLum Medical Display Calibration and QA Software Suite that is perfectly suited for radiologist, chiropractors, urgent care facilities, hospitals, medical clinics and teleradiology providers.

According to Shareden Senior Business Development Director Sharon Johnson, the company will sell and provide software support for LG's new 27-inch 8MP clinical review medical display (27HJ713C-B), 32-inch 8MP diagnostic display (32HL512D-B) and 21.3-inch 3MP diagnostic monitor (21HK512D-B).

Stephen K. Hu, LG Business Solutions USA's head of medical monitors, said, "As demand for remote healthcare services grows, diagnostic displays will play a crucial role in disciplines such as teleradiology. Together with Qubyx, LG is committed to developing new solutions for healthcare professionals to help them provide the best possible healthcare services."In order to serve the market, LG designed these new displays to satisfy the stringent requirements of the New York State Department of Health Bureau of Environmental Radiation Protection primary diagnostic monitor guidelines (NYS PDM) and the New York City Health Department's Office of Radiological Health (PDM QA) programs for clinical review and diagnostic use in imaging environments. 

The displays are compliant with Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Part 14. The 21HK512D and 32HL512D have FDA 510(k) Class II approval and 27HJ713C is FDA registered. DICOM consistency and crisp, detailed visual quality are crucial for radiologists and other medical professionals to be able to draw accurate conclusions from analyses of patient studies, which led New York to develop strict requirements for diagnostic displays.

Qubyx PerfectLum is a multi-platform, multilingual, full-featured quality assurance tool and remote management solution that not only calibrates a primary or secondary medical display, but also performs acceptance and constancy tests to verify that the display conforms to such international regulations as NEMA DICOM part 14 GSDF, AAPM TG-18, DIN 6868-57, DIN 6868-157, JESRA X-0093, IEC 62563-1 ACR and NYS/NYC Primary Diagnostic Monitor (NY PDM) guidelines.

"PerfectLum Suite has been the preferred medical display calibration and quality control software used by hospitals, teleradiology companies, university health systems, and other medical facilities worldwide," Johnson said. "The integration of PerfectLum with the new LG medical display creates a perfect pairing; LG Electronics has the scale, infrastructure, and reputation to assure all customers they are using a superior product. Based on early interest, we expect these display solutions to become a standard-bearer for teleradiology needs. We are extremely happy that LG recognized the versatility, precision and accuracy of PerfectLum software technology as the perfect calibration complement for the LG medical display products."

The PerfectLum tool offers calibration, QA and reporting capability designed to meet both the NYS and NYC Primary Diagnostic Monitor requirements – making the LG/PerfectLum bundle the perfect solution for NY chiropractors, urgent care facilities, hospitals, medical clinics and other medical organizations.
