PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa., Dec. 8, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Medical Alarm Concepts Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB:MDHI), manufacturer of the MediPendant™, the first fully-monitored medical alarm system that allows you to speak and listen directly through the pendant, announced today it has acquired the controlling rights to U.S. patent numbers RE 41845 and RE 41392.
Both patents relate to existing and future technologies in the design and functionality of the medical alarm, a market that is growing at unprecedented rates. The reissuance of these patents is a significant step toward ensuring the long-term success of the Company with regards to both its existing line of products as well as new products that are currently in design and/or development.
Medical Alarm Concepts™ currently offers a unique, patented medical emergency alarm system that is different from other personal emergency response (PERS) systems on the market today. MDHI's MediPendant™ product provides several revolutionary and highly desirable features, including the ability to speak and listen to the operator directly through the pendant, an extended range of up to approximately 600+ feet from the base station enabling the user to move virtually anywhere in or around their home, and a call center staffed around the clock with all EMT-certified operators, who are guaranteed to stay on the line with the MediPendant™ user until the problem is resolved or help arrives. MediPendant's™ advanced technology also allows for three-way calling between the operator, the user and the dispatched first responders and/or a friend and family member.
[b ]Ronnie Adams, President of Medical Alarm Concepts™, commented, "This is excellent news for the Company.
