The Corporate Profile will be carried in BARRON'S national circulation.
"This reflects a commitment on the part of Protectus Medical Devices to introducing the Company's revolutionary Hypodermic Safety Syringe technology to the nation at large," said Dr. John. Salstrom, President and CEO.
"Our country pays a heavy price for the cost of needlestick injuries every year, adding an additional burden to our health care industry in the billions of dollars.
"In addition to the enormous cost to our country's healthcare industry, there is the horrible human tragedy side of the needlestick injury problem, namely, that of the nurses, doctors and health care workers who contract HIV, Hepatitis, and other blood borne diseases from such needlestick injuries, some cases of which are fatal," Dr. Salstrom continued.
"The Protectus Hypodermic Safety Syringe will prevent needlestick injuries, it will save the lives of our nurses, doctors, and health care workers, and it will contribute to reducing overall health care costs to our country," Dr. Salstrom said.
"We are pleased to introduce our revolutionary technology to the market place and we invite everyone to follow the Company's progress by visiting our website at [ www.protectusmedical.com ]."

In the nearly $5 billion global hypodermic syringe market, the Protectus Safety Syringe, the Company's lead product, is the only fully automatic, self-sheathing hypodermic safety syringe that currently meets the functional definition of "Self-Sheathing" mandated by the U.S. Federal Government.
