Because of crowding of the radio spectrum due to the recent introduction of HDTV in the United States and many other countries, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) as well as similar agencies elsewhere have recently begun to allocate dedicated frequency bands for exclusive biotelemetry usage, for example, the Wireless Medical Telemetry Service (WMTS).
The Patient Monitoring & Life Support division develops and manufactures multi-parameter patient monitors, biotelemetry systems, Anesthesia Delivery Systems, Defibrillators, ECG machines, pulse oxymeters, hospital beds, and mounting systems for customers worldwide.
