"AirStrip Technologies is striving to improve patient safety by setting a new standard of care in the world of mobility and remote surveillance. Therefore, it only makes sense that we extend our application to one of the most innovative handheld devices available today," said AirStrip Technologies' President and CMO, Cameron Powell MD.

The AirStrip OB iPhone application will provide users with multi-touch capabilities to quickly scroll and zoom through critical data, including contraction and fetal heart waveform patterns. The AirStrip OB iPhone version will be taking advantage of not only the expanded iPhone screen size, but also Apple's newly announced push notification service to send alerts to physicians based on individual physician customization. Furthermore, AirStrip OB on the iPhone will allow doctors to add patients to a "My Patients" list that will help physicians navigate through data more efficiently when time is of the essence.
