Inc. is a Bio-tech company that is
commercializing a cutting edge FDA approved
technology for treating metabolic disorders
specifically targeting Type 1 and Type 2

clinical protocols.
Business
Approximately 100,000 treatments spanning over
the past 25+ years have been administered.
proving the effectiveness of iCAT therapy with
not one negative side effect or medical
complication reported. There are a number of
peer reviewed published articles by top medical
researchers in the field of Diabetes, Wound Care
and Endocrinology who've determined that iCAT
Therapy is by far the most successful adjunct to
traditional treatment for Secondary
Complications of Type 2 Diabetes and treatment
for Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes.
VitalCare entered into an exclusive Licensing
Agreement with the manufacturer of the patented
and FDA approved micro-dose intravenous insulin
pump
and the exclusive developer of the proprietary
algorithms and clinical protocols, who provides
ongoing clinical oversight, medical training and
quality control services to all certified
VitalCare Diabetes Treatment Centers and
affiliates. These exclusive licenses for North
America include the USA, Canada and Mexico with
further rights to expand internationally with
some exclusions.
VitalCare will seek to open company owned
VitalCare Diabetes Treatment Centers, identify
and license the technology to healthcare
specialists who meet stringent criteria for
“Certification”, and license the iCAT Therapy to
Insurance Plans and HMO’s under a Disease
Management program. iCAT Therapy will initially
be introduced to the consumer market as a rescue
treatment for “Brittle Diabetic” patients
suffering from secondary complications of Type 2
Diabetes, to include; difficult to heal wounds,
high blood pressure, heart disease, visual
impairment and kidney disease, using the
patented and FDA approved micro-dose intravenous
insulin pump device.
Currently, there are approximately 30 licensed
iCAT clinics operating in North America,
including Florida, Arizona, Utah, California,
Texas and Nevada. VitalCare has an ownership
joint-venture interest in two wound care centers
in Indiana and has acquired joint ownership in
the iCAT clinic located in Scottsdale, AZ.
VitalCare is currently in negotiations for
acquisitions with an iCAT clinic in Sacramento,
CA and one in Draper, UT. VitalCare anticipates
having clinics opened, either Company owned,
joint venture or sub-licensed affiliates, in all
fifty states by year end 2010.
Medical Devices
iCAT is
delivered
exclusively with the FDA approved, US and
European patented micro-dose intravenous insulin
pump device sold via an exclusive purchasing
agreement through VitalCare. In addition to
licensing and distribution of the insulin pumps,
VitalCare will also market and distribute
metabolic carts used to measure the patient’s
Respiratory Quotient (“RQ”). In the future,
VitalCare plans on licensing and marketing the
proprietary pre-filled insulin cartridges that
will operate only with VitalCare’s insulin pump
technology.
iCAT Therapy has been
independently proven to be safe and effective
for Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes and most
secondary medical complications of Type 2
Diabetes with additional Medical Patents issued
for; cardiovascular disease, diabetic wounds,
retinopathy, secondary hypertension and kidney
disease. In addition, iCAT Therapy has been
found to improve all the general maladies of
diabetes including lack of well-being, low
energy, improving sleep, and there is anecdotal
data on improvement in erectile dysfunction.
iCAT
Therapy has been proven safe and
effective on the most difficult and
critically ill patients who have failed all
conventional therapies commonly referred to as
“Brittle Diabetics”. Both patients and their
physicians see positive results within a few
treatment sessions. There is currently no other
therapy known to have this high degree of
clinical outcomes at or exceeding iCAT Therapy,
with a documented 93%+ clinical outcome for
patients between the ages of 5 years to 90+
years of age. |
