Ultrasis - IS this the next tripple bagger performer (ULT)     

mcsquares - 13 Aug 2003 17:03

Over the past three months I, probably like most have benefitted from the movement in small micro - cap stock that have risen heavily on increased liquidity. The next stock, despite having benefitted from a massive surge in share price back in April, that I have focused on is Ultrasis. This company is poised to secure the ever increasing Mental Health Market both at home and in the US (Several lucrative contracts already announced)through its suite of highly effective software.

The companies web address is as follows http://www.ultrasis.co.uk

I for one have gone heavily into this stock and am prepared to wait for the realisation of its potential to kick in .I would advise others to do so

Here is an extract. The only thing that is lacking in the report is that there have not been any new contracts but they will be coming.

"Chief executive Graham Lewis said business has continued to develop steadily for the first six months. Cost management has been stringent and the group said order input for the first 3 months of 2005 has again been positive.

However, he said the impact of this is not reflected in the results to end-Jan 2005."

New Appointment Announcement

ULTRASIS APPOINTS NEW UK DIRECTOR OF SALES
Interactive healthcare specialists, Ultrasis plc, have appointed a new UK
Director of Sales in order to harvest increasing market potential. Assuming his
new position as of 1st of May, John Smith will develop the market for the
company's range of computer based products, both amongst Primary Care Trusts
keen to use effective drug-free alternatives in the treatment of depression, as
well as employers who in line with current legislation wish to take proactive
steps to reduce stress in the workplace.

Graham Lewis, Chief Executive of Ultrasis commented; 'Mental health including
stress-related illness is now widely acknowledged as the number one cause of
workplace absenteeism, a fact underlined by the Health and Safety Executive's
move in November 2004 to issue new guidelines to employers on this issue.
Combined, these factors mean that the market for our products is growing
rapidly. John's appointment will give us increased capacity to actively ensure
Ultrasis take full advantage of this market opportunity.'

John, who was previously an Executive Director of a national charity, Mental
Health Matters, has extensive experience within the NHS, most recently as
Director of Innovation and Redesign for the 5 Boroughs Partnership NHS Trust
providing specialist mental health services to the people of Warrington, St
Helens, Knowsley, Wigan and Halton. One of his key achievements during this time
was the introduction of Ultrasis Relief Series to the population of St Helens as
a treatment for depression and anxiety and was very impressed with the results.

'Having witnessed very favourable experiences from the customer perspective, I
truly believe in the Ultrasis product range and am delighted to have the
opportunity to develop it on a national scale,' John commented. 'I feel there is
huge scope for these drug-free treatments for stress, anxiety and depression
which are not only proven and cost-effective to implement but are also wanted by
the people who experience the effects of mental ill-health.'

Graham added; 'I see John's appointment as a very positive move for Ultrasis.
His background in the field of mental health, network contacts and direct
experience of our product's effectiveness will be great assets in developing
Ultrasis' continued growth. We believe our products are the best on the market,
and now recommended by NICE for use in the NHS, we are very pleased that John
has joined forces with us.'

PRESS INFORMATION
Release immediate

CALL FOR PARTIES TO PUT WORK RELATED STRESS ON THE POLITICAL AGENDA

With stress now officially the number one cause of absenteeism costing the economy an estimated 3.7 billion a year a leading interactive healthcare specialist believes the issue should be placed higher up on the political agenda.

Absenteeism due to workplace stress is a growing problem for employers resulting in the loss of some 13 million working days each year, commented Graham Lewis, Chief Executive of interactive healthcare specialists, Ultrasis plc. This is bad news for the economy as well as a headache for employers, and were surprised that none of the major parties is making an issue of this, particularly as there are cost-effective steps which can be taken to tackle the problem.

Ultrasis have pioneered the development of a number of interactive packages, some using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques, which enable employers to identify the extent of stress and anxiety amongst staff and, where appropriate, take remedial action. As well as being highly effective and drug-free, the programmes have low set-up and operating costs, increasing their appeal to organisations who want to deal with the problem in a cost-effective way.

Last year the Health and Safety Executive introduced new stress management guidelines which all employers are now required to follow, which demonstrates that the government recognises the importance of the problem. Whilst the issue of stress related absenteeism is recognized by all three main parties, it is surprising that their respective policies are not being more openly debated, commented Graham Lewis.

He added, The scale of this growing problem would suggest that this is an issue which cant be ignored and merits higher priority on the agendasfor all parties. The benefits of a more proactive approach to tackling stress are all too obvious both for employers and the economy in general.

Foam treatment for varicose veins

More than a fifth of adults get varicose veins
Injecting patients with a foam that expands in the blood vessels can successfully treat troublesome varicose veins, say doctors.
Between 20% and 30% of adults develop varicose veins, usually later in life or during pregnancy.

As well as looking unpleasant, varicose veins can ache, throb and itch.

More than 50 patients at Ealing Hospital in London have received the foam therapy with good results, says consultant Mr George Geroulakos.

Fast foam

If they are small, varicose veins may be controlled with conservative methods, such as compression bandages or stockings.

But larger or more complicated varices cases will need surgery.

The early and interim results are really promising

Mr George Geroulakos

This can involve stripping the veins, tying them off or injecting an agent to close the vein, which is called sclerotherapy.

Sclerotherapy has some advantages over surgical stripping.

It can be done under local rather than general anaesthetic and leaves only one small scar in the groin rather than numerous scars on the leg.

"With the conventional stripping technique, the patient has to stay off work for about eight days after.

"With the foam therapy, they can go back within days," said Mr Geroulakos, who is also a consultant for the Hammersmith Hospitals NHS Trust.

Doctors have been using liquid sclerotherapy for years. But a newer way is to use a foam, guided with the help of ultrasound imaging.

Closing the vein

In contrast to liquid, foam is not diluted once injected, so less is needed and it remains in the vein for a longer time.

The foam works by pushing the blood out of the way and is able to make better contact with the inside of the vein walls.

All of these factors mean it could work better than liquid sclerotherapy, according to Mr Geroulakos.

"Sometimes the liquid can leak outside of the vein and this can cause a chemical sore or ulcer.

"We think complications should be less common with the foam.

"Plus you can see exactly where the foam is with ultrasound. It casts a shadow that can be seen with the machine. You can see every individual vein, which is a major advantage," he said.

Mr Geroulakos has been treating patients with the foam technique for two years. "The early and interim results are really promising, but we have not been doing it long enough to know about the long-term results," he said.

About a fifth of patients who have their varicose veins treated with stripping will need repeat treatment within five years because the problem comes back. But it is not yet clear whether the same is true with foam therapy.

A single injection of the foam is enough to treat a half metre length of vein.

Afterwards, the patient wears a compression stocking continuously for two weeks and then during the day only for another week.
