Wellstar/TMI Begins Marketing Imaging System to Long-Term Care Facilities

HOLLAND, OH--(MARKET WIRE)--Jan 8, 2009 -- Wellstar International, Inc. (OTC BB:WLSI.OB - News), a provider of specialized diagnostic software and equipment, announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Trillennium Medical Imaging ("TMI"), is ready to begin marketing its thermal imaging system to long-term care ("LTC") facilities in the United States. National statistics currently show that the incidence rate of pressure ulcers, also known as bed sores, is as high as 28% of the population for those living in LTC facilities; with many leading experts believing the rate is even higher.
LTC facilities generally care for patients that are critically and/or terminally ill, bed-ridden, and that show higher rates of dementia; all indicators that put an individual at risk for developing a pressure ulcer. TMI's thermal imaging diagnostic device will equip caregivers at these facilities with the ability to objectively identify patterns of injury associated with the development of pressure ulcers. This kind of early detection can lead to intervention and even prevention. By identifying the tissue changes associated with the development of these wounds prior to skin breakdown, a patient can receive considerably better care by avoiding a pressure ulcer occurrence altogether. When long-term care facilities reduce the occurrence of pressure ulcers within their facility, they receive a higher rating in the pay for performance ("P4P") initiative from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS").

LTC facilities that utilize TMI's thermal imaging system technology will be able to provide better overall patient care by significantly lowering their pressure ulcer incident rate. By having complete documentation of every skin assessment performed, an LTC facility can also curtail its liabilities by protecting itself against costly lawsuits.

With nearly 16,000 long-term care facilities in the United States, and an aging population that is increasing in size year after year, TMI has an enormous and largely untouched market to go after with its revolutionary system. TMI's marketing plan includes a program where LTC facilities can lease the equipment necessary to perform skin assessments and store the necessary data onsite. Lease plans start at the monthly fee of $2,000 per unit. This monthly fee allows for unlimited imaging, a factor that should help promote aggressive imaging/assessment programs by these facilities.

Wellstar/TMI CEO, John Antonio, commented: "We have already seen a positive response to our thermal imaging system among the LTC facilities we have been engaged with. We expect significant revenue potential within the LTC market, and the Company anticipates placing initial units within these facilities sometime within the first quarter of 2009."

The company has developed its thermal imaging system for various applications. The TMI technology and software has been approved by the FDA as an Adjunctive Diagnostic Screening Procedure for early breast cancer detection, differential diagnoses of pain dysfunctions (such as Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy, Neuromuscular Skeletal Syndromes and neurological disorders), for the early detection of pressure ulcers, deep tissue injuries, and bedsores, as well as for orthopedic applications. The company has plans to market diagnostic systems for all of the above mentioned applications.
