Feedback announces official launch of Bleepa Box to enable connected imaging
in remote locations
· Enables capture and rapid transfer of medical images from remote
locations to the Bleepa platform over mobile networks
· Images acquired in remote settings can be instantly reviewed by
specialists in other locations, connected via the Bleepa platform for instant
case discussion, enabling point of care patient management
· Multiple commercial opportunities including veterinary,
international markets and the military
London, 23 September 2021: Feedback plc (AIM: FDBK, "Feedback" or the
"Company"), the specialist clinical communication company, announces that
following the success of the store and forward concept delivered in
partnership with the equine division of CVS Group plc it is officially
launching Bleepa Box, a specialist tool to enable image transfer from remote
settings to the Bleepa platform.
Bleepa Box is a small tablet device that connects to imaging machines in order
to securely push images to Bleepa over a mobile network from remote locations.
Crucially Bleepa does not need WiFi access. Images are downloaded from the
imaging machine onto the Bleepa Box then automatically pushed to Bleepa. The
clinician who acquired the images can then review the images directly on the
Bleepa Box and can make onward referrals or start a conversation with a
specialist for input on the case whilst still in the remote location. This
enables rapid decision making and treatment of the patient within that first
visit, at the point of care, for cases that previously would have required
transfer to treatment centres for imaging and management. This enables new
capabilities around remote investigation and patient management, allowing
patient imaging to be carried out and discussed in settings that were
previously unreachable for traditional care models.
In addition to the veterinary imaging market which is growing at a compound
annual growth rate of 6.7% and is expected to be worth an estimated £2.24bn
in the UK(1) by 2025, Bleepa Box's remote image capabilities are relevant to a
number of other significant commercial opportunities including the delivery of
rural imaging for TB screening services in India, as announced in our MOU with
Qure.ai on 14 September 2021 and routes to support the military infield
market.
Dr Tom Oakley, CEO of Feedback, said: "This technology was a solution created,
designed and launched to support the work we are doing in the veterinary
market with CVS and we are now taking the steps to formally build a brand
around this capability. Imaging of horses is typically done in remote
stables without WiFi, but there is often the need for timely advice and
guidance by specialists whilst the vet is with the animal. We developed the
store and forward technology that enables them to analyse and treat animals on
site, which reduces the vet's workload, travel time and is certainly better
for the animal. However, clearly there are other markets that have this
requirement and formally branding the solution as Bleepa Box enables us to
build a market around this capability across a range of industries. We
anticipate that the product can be sold in combination with Bleepa or
potentially as a standalone offering to facilitate image sharing to other
third-party systems such as PACS."
