RealNews PeriOptimum names Bob Sciote Pittsburgh, PA, July, 2008 – Perioptimum, a provider of Technology Software and Process Management Solutions for improving workflow and efficiency in the Surgical Services arena, recently hired Bob Sciote (pronounced SIGH-ottie) as the company’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing. Immediately prior to joining Perioptimum, Mr. Sciote held a similar position with StelKast, a Pittsburgh-based manufacturer of orthopedic implants. He has also lead in a variety of Executive Sales Management positions with industry leaders such as Johnson & Johnson’s Ethicon Endo-Surgery Division, and the Neuro Care Group, which is now Integra Life Sciences. “The relationships that Bob has cultivated among surgeons and hospital administrators nationwide, combined with his market knowledge, should help to increase demand for our products and services,” says Mark Vernallis, Perioptimum’s President and CEO. “We find ourselves in a unique position where we have the ability to create a market”, adds Mr. Sciote, “The Real Time benefits our RealView Patient Tracking Technology (formerly Pathfinder) provides for our customers combined with our Process Management solutions, give us the ability to create and grow a very large market opportunity as we expand our leadership position as the only company with expertise in tracking patients real-time in the periopertive environment”. “One of our focus markets will be high-volume orthopedic institutions. Surgeon’s in these facilities perform a high volume of repeatable procedures, so they know and embrace the value of efficiency, and quickly connect with the benefit of receiving real-time actionable information rather than manual documentation driven data that either arrives too late, or not at all”. “When we help this stressful environment become proactive and begin to plan for their patient’s next step, we greatly increase the element of patient safety by eliminating the difficulty experienced today of inevitable reactionary management in a fast paced high stress environment”. I look forward to working with Clinicians, nursing, and administration to reach this vitally important target market. About PeriOptimum PeriOptimum is dedicated to improving healthcare throughput.
