Environmental Tectonics Corporation's BioMedical Division Announces Multiple Hyperbaric Chamber Sales

SOUTHAMPTON, Pa., Oct. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Environmental Tectonics Corporation's (OTC Bulletin Board: ETCC) ("ETC" or the "Company") BioMedical Division today announced a record month for sales of their Baramed monoplace chambers. Dave Mitchell, Vice President of ETC Controls Group, said, "A total of 15 chambers have been sold within the last 30 day period. While our industry is not immune to the current economic conditions, this record performance reflects the technological superiority of our chamber and the versatility of our O.S.C.A.R.(TM) (Operating System for Control And Recordkeeping) system."


ETC is the industry's leader in computerized monoplace hyperbaric oxygen chambers. The technology and expertise that is incorporated in ETC chambers originates from our long standing diverse corporate background in software, hardware and electrical design.


Like all monoplace hyperbaric chambers designed and manufactured by ETC BioMedical, the unit contains O.S.C.A.R.(TM), ETC's integrated computerized system which offers a comprehensive Electronic Medical Record (EMR) of the treatment each patient receives.


Our automated operating system also includes programmable treatment protocols and a patient friendly pressurization alternative (Smooth Ride(TM)), which minimizes complications due to middle ear and sinus barotraumas without increasing compression time. As an added safety feature, ETC's chambers feature a full manual override system to avoid premature termination of treatment protocol as a result of extended power outages.


ETC was incorporated in 1969 in Pennsylvania and this year we have celebrated our 40th anniversary. Our core technologies include the design, manufacture and sale of Training Services (TSG) which includes (1) software driven products and services used to create and monitor the physiological effects of flight; (2) high performance jet tactical flight simulation, and; (3) driving and disaster simulation systems, and Control Systems (CSG) which includes: (1) steam and gas sterilization; (2) testing and simulation devices for the automotive industry, and; (3) hyperbaric and hypobaric chambers. Product categories included in TSG are Aircrew Training Systems (ATS) and flight simulators, disaster management systems and entertainment applications.
