Wound Care Management System Swift Wound XL Launches across the United States
End-to-end solution combines precision wound imaging with seamless EMR integration for advanced
healing outcomes
TORONTO, ON, May 4 , 2017 – Swift Medical today announced the U.S. launch of Swift Wound XL, a
leading wound management system that includes point-of-care measurement and analysis tools, realtime Electronic Medical Record (EMR) integration, and advanced remote collaboration capability. Swift
Wound, an FDA-registered medical device, leverages recent advances in machine vision and machine
learning technology, delivering improved patient engagement, advanced healing outcome tracking, and
unprecedented insight into population health and wound-risk analytics. This U.S launch follows Swift’s
availability throughout Canada and comes on the heels of their announcement with leading electronic
health record provider, PointClickCare who this past October announced that Swift would power their
skin and wound solution.
“This launch marks the first time Swift Wound XL is broadly available to wound care providers
throughout the United States,” says Sarah Cox, Swift VP Business Development. “Swift caters to
organizations including EMR providers, acute care hospitals, wound clinics and home health providers
who embrace the improved healing outcomes and cost-savings potential made possible by the latest
imaging and machine learning technology. We have established partnerships with industry leaders and
continue to evolve discussions with organizations who are eager to take advantage of this advancement
in wound care management in order to create the best patient experience possible.”
Swift Wound XL leverages the latest machine vision technology, allowing clinicians and patients to see
realistic and strikingly vivid visuals that represent actual wound healing. The system includes Swift
Wound, a mobile app that provides point-of-care measurement and analysis tools. When combined with
Swift HealXTM, a bio-compatible marker that scientifically calibrates wound measurements, Swift turns
the ubiquitous smartphone into a precision digital planimetry device. Data can be shared immediately
between wound team members who use the app and can be viewed instantly with Metrics, the Swift
Wound XL dashboard. Also, in recognition that wound care is part of a larger ecosystem, Swift has deep
expertise integrating their wound care management solution with an organization’s own EMR. The
result is a smooth and seamless experience that starts at point-of-care and continues throughout every
aspect of wound care management up to and including organization-wide wound analytics.
“Swift’s deep technical expertise in providing comprehensive wound care management solutions means
this move into the United States marks the next stage in Swift’s promise to deliver advanced wound
healing outcomes and cost-effective wound care management solutions to every patient, every doctor,
and every nurse, everywhere,” said Carlo Perez, co-founder and CEO of Swift Medical. “It is our hope
that Swift Wound will empower the incredibly knowledgeable and skilled wound care professionals who
work throughout the United States, as well as the forward-thinking, business-savvy organizations they
work for.”
