[의학신문·일간보사=오인규 기자] SELVAS Healthcare, a professional company based on its medical device technologies accumulated for over the past 3 decades, manufactures body composition analyzers and blood pressure monitors.

At the KIMES 2021, the company plans to shed light on “ACCUNIQ BC380,” the first body composition analyzer rolled out in South Korea equipped with remote technical support program as well as its “ACCUNIQ BP500,” its blood pressure monitor which enjoys largest market share in Korea.

First of all, “ACCUNIQ BC380” was confirmed to be the most accurate measurement system by recording an industry-high 98 percent correlation with a global standard DEXA (Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) equipment at a U.S. clinical trial center IHT. Developed with outstanding IT technology of a SELVAS Healthcare affiliate, the device enables the hardware company to go beyond its limitations.

Applying innovative software technologies to the product’s design, UI screen and result sheet, SELVAS Healthcare has made it easier to use. Added to this, the company provides convenient system check, upgrade, and maintenance services that may arise in measuring body composition anytime and anywhere, being the first in the industry to provide “remote technical support program.”

“ACCUNIQ BP500,” the top-selling product in the Korean blood pressure monitor market, enables easier yet more precise measurements. Some 100,000 and 50,000 products are supplied domestically and globally, respectively, across universities and general hospitals, hospitals and clinics, convalescent hospitals, public health centers as well as sport gyms.

Besides, the world’s first U.S. FDA-approved dual-arm sphygmomanometer “BP850” is also actively utilized in early detection of cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and cardiac arrest by measuring blood pressure on both arms.

SELVAS Healthcare has also signed a massive supply contract worth 5 billion KRW with Terumo Co., Ltd. of Thailand in 2020.

SELVAS Healthcare CEO Yoo Byung-tak says, “ACCUNIQ BC380, a model that enables user convenience and accurate body muscle measure, is being received well here at home and abroad,” adding “SELVAS Healthcare will further continue to be a professional medical device company with high level of trust by its consumers in the body composition analyzer market, followed by the highest market share enjoyed in the blood pressure gauge market.”

He also noted that in particular, “ACCUNIQ BP500 that enables high accuracy and easy tailoring to fit everyone around the world will further penetrate deeper into the global medical market such as Europe and the Americas.
