TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - May 9, 2012) - CardioComm Solutions, Inc. (TSX VENTURE:EKG) ("CardioComm Solutions" or the "Company") today announced the limited release of its new proprietary GEMS™ Air software, electrocardiogram ("ECG") SDK viewer (GUAVA™) and a new customized web-based device interface. The pre GEMS™ 4.0 version will be incorporated into wireless arrhythmia services for the remote diagnostic arrhythmia and remote patient monitoring market.

The new GEMS™ Air software solution was designed to simplify the work flow associated with real-time, wireless cardiac monitoring. While broad commercial release of GEMS™ 4.0 is scheduled for later this year, Philips Healthcare and TZ Medical have leveraged this limited advanced version of the software, along with its customized web-based device interface, in their remote diagnostic arrhythmia monitoring technology and services. Both companies will each separately announce their product debuts during the Heart Rhythm 2012 Annual Scientific Sessions in Boston, MA.

"CardioComm Solutions is continuing to strengthen its alliances with many Tier 1 health service leaders," said Dr. Anatoly Langer, Chairman of CardioComm Solutions' Board. "Our ongoing work with international medical technology companies is a critical part of this long term strategy. This newest of our GEMS™ based software technology advances is already of significant interest to medical companies that possess large global sales and marketing networks and that possess, or can access, existing relationships with the world's cardiologists, hospitals and monitoring services," Dr. Langer added.

"For the past three years CardioComm Solutions has been compiling new GEMS™ and GUAVA™ solutions to enable the integration of multiple ECG recording and transmitting devices that have received FDA market clearance, Health Canada Medical Device Licensure, as well as the European CE Mark for medical devices. This release marks another important milestone in achieving that objective," noted Etienne Grima, Chief Executive Officer of CardioComm Solutions. "CardioComm Solutions continues to demonstrate that we are an innovative solutions provider that meets the business and medical care challenges associated with the growing ECG monitoring markets."

"CardioComm Solutions has developed the most advanced connectivity option between device and medical call centre. Their GEMS™ software is the engine behind the launch of the AERA CT mobile Cardiac telemetry (MCT) device and will be part of the international marketing efforts of TZ Medical," stated John Lubisich, President, TZ Medical, Inc.

"CardioComm Solutions has worked with Philips as a preferred provider of ECG interfaces and management tools for many years within the cardiac monitoring service environment," said Martha Dolan, Marketing Director, Philips Remote Cardiac Services. "With their logical approach to solutions development and their on-time business delivery, CardioComm Solutions has proven to be a reliable provider in support of our goal to improve the lives of our patients."

The global Cardiovascular Monitoring and Diagnostic devices market is forecast to reach US$12 billion by 2015 with the North American segment accounting for approximately 40%, Europe more than 25% and Asia-Pacific as the fastest growing region driving a value of US$3.4 billion. "These early start US based strategic relationships highlight the opportunities that can be replicated in Canada, South America and overseas by leveraging CardioComm Solutions' multi-country client base," adds Mr. Grima.
