WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP -- Specialty Medical Equipment, Inc., a family owned national medical equipment supplier, Wednesday announced the launch of a new e-commerce Web site at www.ShopSpecialtyMed.com.

A Lymphedema Awareness Link www.LymphCompression.com for lymphedema, chronic venous insufficiency patients, and their families, an easy to use ordering cart system, and larger product pictures are also featured along with larger print.

The company's founder and president, Dan Szajna, hopes to offer the medical community, long term care, nursing homes, hospitals, doctors, nurses, therapists, patients and their families a reliable ever changing site full of medical information and products for their lymphedema, wounds, pressure sores (decubitus ulcers), mobility, and pain management needs with answers and assistive solutions concerning these conditions.

Specialty Medical Equipment specializes in offering pressure relief mattress systems that help prevent and treat pressure ulcers. By offering the power mattress systems such as alternating pressure bariatric models, lateral rotation models, pulsation and low air loss mattress systems, the patient's ulcers are targeted by the mattresses' alternating pressure to stimulate the movement of blood flow around and near the wound tissue to assist in prevention and healing. The low air loss feature is designed to add comfort, and ventilation, that a solid mattress cannot. Alternating pressure and low air loss technologies are known to be most effective in assisting the healing and prevention process, this makes care giving tasks significantly easier at a tremendous cost and time management savings to the care givers.

Specialty Medical Equipment, Inc. also offers foam mattresses, mobility wheel chair products, electrotherapy muscle stimulators, electrodes, bracing products, scooters, and therapy treatment tables.
