MINNEAPOLIS-(Business Wire)-September 1, 2009 - E-18 Corp. (OTCBB: ETEN), through its wholly owned subsidiary, SquareOne Medical, Inc., doing business as Protectus Medical Devices ("Protectus Medical Devices"), today announces the release of a SmallcapInsights.com article by industry veteran, Dr. John Faessel.

Entitled “Launching: A Truly Unique ‘Safe Needle’”, Dr. Faessel guides readers through the enormous opportunity for the Protectus Safety Syringe as the sole safety syringe that automatically self-sheaths, potentially revolutionizing an important segment of the healthcare system. As a former healthcare professional himself, Dr. Faessel provides his unique insights and how the design could save hundreds of lives for those medical professionals at risk of contracting diseases through accidental needlesticks.

From the article:

“Over the 24+ years of my professional career as a health provider it's notable that during the injection procedure I have not only pricked myself several times, but several of my staff have also had the same ugly experience. In today's world of conditions such as hepatitis and HIV the worry after such an incident is horrifying due to the gravity of those blood-borne infections.”

Dr. Faessel goes on to say, “The patent protected Protectus Safety Syringe is the only safety syringe in existence today that meets all criteria of the federal mandate for safety syringes in the US, the self-sheathing criterion in particular. Importantly the syringe is fully compliant with federal and state laws and with the OSHA mandate.”

The Protectus Medical Safety Syringe is designed to significantly reduce or eliminate accidental needlestick injuries that have plagued the healthcare workplace for decades.
