I have held the bag on this one for sometime now but this NR seals it for me, into at least another 2 year hold.

BC's Interior Health Authority Purchases RAMP Systems For Cardiac Testing
VANCOUVER, Dec. 13 /CNW/ - Response Biomedical Corp. (TSX-V: RBM, OTCBB: RPBIF), announced today that the Interior Health Authority of British Columbia has purchased RAMP Systems intended for use in more than 25 hospitals and community care facilities, to assist in the early detection of heart attacks.

Rapid diagnosis of heart attacks is critical to patient outcomes. Every minute that passes after the occurrence of a heart attack without appropriate medical treatment reduces the patient's chance of survival. The initial purchase followed a series of evaluations
of RAMP's performance compared to established point-of-care and laboratory based diagnostic systems. The RAMP System provides highly sensitive quantitative information within approximately 15 minutes, enabling physicians to quickly and accurately rule in or rule out heart attacks and provide the appropriate treatment.

"With 20,000 heart attack tests expected to be performed annually in this region, approximately 750,000 residents will enjoy the benefits of a locally developed diagnostic platform that has set a superior standard in point-of- care testing," said Bill Radvak, President and CEO. "Similar to Group Purchasing Organizations in the United States, BC's regional approach to administrating health care exploits the versatility of our high performance RAMP System given its broad applicability to both hospitals and health care clinics."
