LOS ANGELES, Jul 08, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- CompuMed, Inc. /quotes/comstock/11k!cmpd (CMPD 0.19, 0.00, 0.00%) (http://www.compumed.net), a medical informatics and telemedicine services company, has secured extended contracts to provide its signature CardioGram(TM) electrocardiogram (ECG) remote interpretation systems and over-read services for the Oklahoma Department of Corrections (OKDOC) and Arizona Department of Corrections (ADC) at selected facilities throughout both states. The OKDOC rents 21 CardioGram systems, and the ADC owns 45 CardioGram systems.

Maurizio Vecchione, CompuMed's CEO, said, "The CardioGram helps a facility to gain rapid access to specialists in diagnosing and treating cardiovascular disease. Such access increases the standard of care while minimizing costs and potential liability for the facility."

CompuMed's traditional core business is providing remote ECG interpretation terminals and related services to medical facilities that may not have access to physicians trained and qualified to interpret ECG results or for whom the costs are prohibitive.
