AirStrip, CCSI partner

ELGIN - AirStrip Technologies L.P., and Clinical Computer Systems Inc. Tuesday said they will pair CCSI's OBIX Perinatal Data System with AirStrip's application, AirStrip OB.

AirStrip OB sends data for both the mother and baby directly from the hospital's labor and delivery unit to a physician's mobile device. Doctors can access this vital information anytime and anywhere they have a cellphone connection.

AirStrip OB support for the iPhone and BlackBerry is due to be released within the next month.

Ranked No. 1 in the 2008 KLAS report on labor and delivery systems, the OBIX Perinatal Data System is a computerized system for central, bedside and remote electronic fetal monitoring.
