Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women and Babies Joins HeRO™ Patient Outcomes Study March 31, 2008- Charlottesville, VA. Medical Predictive Science Corporation (MPSC) has announced that Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women and Babies has begun enrolling patients in an ongoing outcomes study of the Heart Rate Observation (HeRO™) system. This evidence based medicine clinical trial is supported by the NIH at three academic centers and by MPSC at Winnie Palmer. The HeRO™ system analyzes the heart rate variability of newborns in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) to detect abnormal patterns, such as reduced baseline variability and transient decelerations. The ultimate result of this analysis is a score that quantifies the degree of abnormality. The research study, funded by the National Institutes of Health and MPSC, attempts to quantify the effects of making the HeRO™ scores available to caregivers in the NICU. Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women and Babies is located in Orlando, Florida and is the fourth largest NICU in the country. "We are very pleased to have Winnie Palmer join this clinical trial," said Will King, CEO of MPSC. "We look forward to a productive relationship with this prominent hospital." Additional information about the clinical trial can be found at the Clinicaltrials.gov website under the identifier, NCT00307333. # # # Medical Predictive Science Corporation (http://www.mpsc.biz) is engaged in the development of computational diagnostic and bio-informatic technologies for the healthcare industry.
