PST ProShares UltraShort Lehman 7 10 Year Treasury

Patient Safety Technologies, Inc. (AMEX:PST) announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, Surgicount Medical, has received additional agreements and orders to provide 2 more hospitals with its patented Safety-Sponge(TM) System. The company will release more detail in the following days. "The adoption rate of the Safety-Sponge System is exceeding our expectations," said Rick Bertran, President of Surgicount Medical. About Surgicount and the Safety-Sponge(TM) System Surgicount Medical's Safety-Sponge System works much like a grocery store check-out system. Every surgical sponge and towel is pre-labeled by the manufacturer with an individual and unique bar coded label, and a scanning counter is used to read and record the labels. No change is required in a hospital's established counting procedures: sponges are counted and recorded by the system at the beginning of the procedure and again as they are removed from the patient.
