From Dec 2019 to Dec 2024
Longport, Inc. (OTCBB:LPTI), a medical technology
specialist in high frequency high resolution ultrasound imaging, today
announced the implementation of a clinical study at two Montana
skilled nursing care centers in partnership with the Goodman Group.
The principal investigator, Dr. Karen Zulkowski, will explore the
use of Longport's EPISCAN I-200 for improved clinical detection of
pressure ulcer risk and development. Dr. Zulkowski is a professor of
nursing at Montana State University-Bozeman and is a member of the
National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP).
Dr. Zulkowski said, "Current practice involves the examination of
a patient's skin for signs of pressure ulcers by sight. The use of
this new technology will allow health care practitioners to identify
and treat tissue damage much earlier, well before we can see changes
on the skin's surface. This research is a wonderful opportunity for
Montana to be a leader in the use of this groundbreaking technology."
Valley Health Care and Rehabilitation Center and Billings Health
and Rehabilitation Community, operated by the Goodman Group, have been
assets to the Billings health care community for more than 35 years.
The hallmarks of the skilled nursing centers go beyond the gracious
living spaces provided for residents, updating the communities to stay
in tune with modern care philosophies and changing healthcare
technology has always been a priority for both communities.
Karen Powers of the Goodman Group said, "We are always ready to be
the leading innovators in long term care, the communities continually
look ahead to new care technologies that could enhance residents'
lives. Long known for its special staffing and attention in wound care
management, Valley Health and Billings Health are happy to partner
with Longport Inc to pilot a new program for preventative wound care
management."

clinical study data to open new markets for our technology using
evidence-based information."
