SAN ANTONIO - (BUSINESS WIRE) - AirStrip Technologies , L.P., a pioneer in remote healthcare surveillance solutions, today announced that it is partnering with PeriGen , the only OB-specific risk reduction solution for hospitals generating immediate, quantifiable clinical and financial value.

"Together, AirStrip and PeriGen can set a higher standard of care in labor and delivery," said Dr. Cameron Powell, co-founder and Chief Medical Officer of AirStrip Technologies. "The 'anywhere, anytime' access that AirStrip OB provides practitioners effectively complements PeriGen's real-time treatment prompts triggered by the changing condition of the patient."

Available for the iPhone , BlackBerry and other Windows Mobile devices, AirStrip OB delivers virtual real-time and historical data for mother and baby directly from the hospital labor and delivery unit to the doctor's smart phone.

"This partnership unites PeriGen's clinical decision support system with AirStrip's remote surveillance technology to keep clinicians informed of a patient's current condition," said Donald A. Deieso, PeriGen Chairman and CEO. "Whether they are near to or far from the bedside, doctors will now be able to view critical medical data on a mobile device. We're sure the 8,600 clinicians using our PeriBirth system will welcome the additional mobility this solution gives them."

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration-cleared, HIPAA-compliant AirStrip OB is currently in use in nearly 100 U.S. hospitals. iPhone users can download a free trial demo of AirStrip OB at Apple's App Store. This month, AirStrip Technologies unveiled its forthcoming AirStrip CRITICAL CARE application in an exclusive presentation as part of Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference.
