Wellstar/TMI Joins Fight Against Bedsores Epidemic

Marketwired
Wellstar International, Inc. (OTCBB: WLSI), a provider of
specialized diagnostic software and equipment, announced today that
its wholly owned subsidiary, Trillennium Medical Imaging ("TMI"),
has now joined the fight to quell a growing epidemic among patients
in the U.S. that are bed-ridden. Pressure ulcers or decubitus
ulcers, commonly known as bedsores, affect hundreds of thousands of
patients admitted to healthcare facilities and/or long-term care
facilities in the U.S. every year.
The Company's revolutionary thermal imaging system allows
nursing staff to objectively identify patterns of injury associated
with the development of pressure ulcers, which can lead to an
intervention and even prevention of bedsores. According to a recent
government report, the number of hospital patients with bedsores
has risen dramatically over a 14-year period, leading to longer,
more expensive hospital stays. By identifying the tissue changes
associated with the development of these wounds prior to skin
breakdown, the patient can avoid bedsore occurrences altogether,
therefore receiving better care from the nursing staff at these
facilities.
Wellstar/TMI CEO John Antonio stated, "We are ready to take this
serious epidemic head on. Our team has been aggressively reaching
out to educate the caregivers at these facilities regarding our
thermal imaging system technology. This is a problem that can be
eventually eliminated."

Based on the existing market for TMI's diagnostic system,
Wellstar is anticipating revenues in the current year to exceed $16
million.
