Health Robotics Announces i.v.STATION(R) ONCO, a Next Generation Robot for Intravenous Cancer Therapy

BOZEN, Sud-Tirol, Italy, March 7, 2011 - Health Robotics today announced the completion of its initial research,
development, and factory-testing activities for its next-generation Cancer
Therapy Robot, i.v.STATION ONCO, and its unveiling at the European
Association of Hospital Pharmacists (EAHP) in Vienna on 1 April 2011,
including its new overpowering features: four times faster, five times
smaller, and three times less expensive than some of the other Sterile
Compounding Robotic devices in the market.

"I do believe that it is now the right time for Generale de Sante to move
forward to Robotics Automation for our strategic Oncology Sterile Compounding
workflow processes. I'm very proud to partner with Health Robotics in the
hospital testing process of its new i.v.STATION ONCO" asserted Filippo
Monteleone, Generale de Sante's Managing Director.

i.v.STATION ONCO is scheduled to be released to Beta-Test and Early
Adopter Program status in approximately 6 months to Generale de Sante in
Paris, Bolzano General Hospital in Italy [working side-by-side and in synergy
with CytoCare], and Health Robotics South East Asia's own compounding center
in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Worldwide general availability for i.v.STATION
ONCO is originally targeted for 1Q2012, including Class II medical device
certification for the United States of America.

"It is indeed a key milestone for Health Robotics to enter the French
healthcare market, and an honor to partner with Generale de Sante, France's
top private hospital group. With i.v.STATION ONCO, we continue to
unquestionably lead Global Oncology Automation by introducing our 3rd
automated solution for Hazardous Sterile Compounding before any of our direct
competitors bring their 1st proven solution to the market [some of which were
announced over 20 years ago[1]. i.v.STATION ONCO symbolizes the next pillar
in Health Robotics' strategy to build a cost-effective, redundant, and
patient-safe network of devices that address the flexibility, throughput,
high-availability, and protection required within Cancer Therapy" stated
Gaspar DeViedma, Health Robotics' Executive Vice President.

i.v.STATION ONCO represents a complementary offering to other Health
Robotics' solutions for sterile compounding of Intravenous Cancer Therapy:
CytoCare and i.v.SOFT Assist. Engineered as an evolution and blending of some
of the fully-tested and globally-embraced technologies embedded within
i.v.STATION and CytoCare, i.v.STATION ONCO automatically compounds, caps, and
labels commercially-available soft plastic bags and syringes from 8 different
brands and 10 different sizes within an ISO-5 environment on negative
pressure. i.v.STATION ONCO however does not support sterile compounding with
ampoules, plastic or glass bottles, CSTDs, unusually small vials, and
elastomeric infusors, which Health Robotics' customers will need to continue
to compound with market-leading CytoCare and/or i.v.SOFT Assist solutions.

"We look forward to repeat the rigorous SafeChemo scientific validation
we undertook with CytoCare in 2008, including world-leading and peer-reviewed
sterility and cross-contamination tests with i.v.STATION ONCO, and to divide
our Oncology Therapy workload with CytoCare, each robot being utilized for a
particular purpose and need" stated Dr. Pietro Paluselli, Director of
Pharmacy at Bolzano General Hospital.
