NTI’s Critical Care Nursing Show, New Orleans 2016

Posted on July 19, 2016March 19, 2018 by Voxello

Voxello recently attended NTI’s Critical Care Nursing Show in New Orleans. The attendees of this show are critical care nurses who and they absolutely loved what Voxello is doing. One nurse told us, “I’ve gotten pretty good at reading lips from patients that are intubated, but this is definitely an improvement.”

Imagine the frustration that nurses go through on a regular basis with these communication barriers, not to mention the anxiety the patient must feel. Voxello aims to eliminate that.

IAT and Iowa Medical Innovations Group featured in Iowa City Press-Citizen

Posted on March 31, 2015July 31, 2018 by Voxello

The noddle system all began as an idea of the Iowa Medical Innovations Group.

Iowa Lt. Governor Kim Reynolds recently visited the University of Iowa to tour a demonstration of Iowa Medical Innovations Group (IMIG) projects. These projects – around which business will one day be formed – included medical devices such as an epicardial lead attachment device to save cardiac patients from a currently highly invasive procedure, an epileptic seizure monitoring software and an opthamological suture extractor. The noddle began in what became the IAT group.

IAT was featured as one of the promising outgrowths of the program, having originally formed as a student project through IMIG in 2012.

The original Press-Citizen article can be viewed here.
