The sixth annual Medical Fair Thailand will be the largest and most significant medical and health exhibition in Thailand. Since 2003, Medical Fair Thailand has become an important platform for regional and international healthcare providers, medical suppliers, industry professionals, government bodies, hospital administrators, doctors and nurses to learn about the latest medical devices and trends. The most recent conference welcomed 328 exhibiting companies from 25 countries which included more than 5,500 attendees from all over the globe.
At the event, VasoMedical will showcase its BIOX ECG Holter and ambulatory blood pressure monitors. BIOX products, designed to minimize size and weight with an extended battery life, represent an extensive line of ambulatory monitoring devices for long term recording and analysis of ECG and blood pressure data. The unique BIOX Model 2301/2302 Combined 3- & 12-Channel ECG Holter and Ambulatory Blood Pressure monitors were the first and only combined ECG and Blood Pressure monitors to be U.S. FDA cleared.
“The healthcare sectors in Thailand and its neighboring countries are growing quickly, which makes Medical Fair Thailand a great forum for us to reach out to the Southeast Asian and international medical communities and introduce our latest technology to the area. At this event, the VasoMedical-BIOX team will showcase its BIOX ECG Holter products to continue to generate awareness and educate leading health professionals from around the world about the uses and advantages of BIOX ECG Holter and ambulatory blood pressure monitors,” said Larry Liebman, Vice President of Sales & Marketing at VasoMedical.
Liebman continued, “Ambulatory ECG and blood pressure data provide important information about incidental cardiovascular abnormalities that are often not observable during a visit to the physician's office, and are therefore extremely valuable for early diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. We look forward to discussing the benefits of this technology with attendees from around the globe.”
VasoMedical will be located at Booth R20.
