Quikflo Health Featured on the Cover of This Month's Stroke Journal

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Dec. 9, 2015) - Quikflo Health Inc. ("Quikflo" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:QF) is pleased to announce that the cover of the December issue of the journal Stroke features the article, "Time-Dependent Computed Tomographic Perfusion Thresholds for Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke," based on pioneering research led by the University of Calgary and the co-inventors of Quikflo. This ground breaking research demonstrates the feasibility and reproducibility of using CT Perfusion to predict the growth in infarct size within a stroke patient's brain over time. Quikflo is building technologies that incorporate insights like these to help medical professionals triage stroke patients around the world better and faster.

Dr. Bijoy Menon, co-Founder of Quikflo and member of the Calgary Stroke Program, said "The innovations developed at the Calgary Stroke Program, many of which were implemented in the recent ESCAPE trial, are already improving outcomes for stroke patients here and around the world. We believe that the knowledge gaps in stroke triage that are shared by many hospitals worldwide are solvable, particularly by a technology solution that reads a patient's CT scan accurately and rapidly. We founded Quikflo to resolve that gap and bring the Calgary Stroke Program's expertise to every hospital, everywhere."

"We are very pleased to see the Quikflo technology featured prominently in this prestigious international journal," said Ken Porter, vice-president, Intellectual Property Management, Innovate Calgary. "The partnership between the University of Calgary and Quickflo is expediting the pace of technology development, which will ultimately improve outcomes for patients worldwide. Innovate Calgary works closely with university inventors to match them with management and investor teams who can accelerate knowledge translation from the bench to the clinic, and Quickflo continues to be a shining example of how these partnerships can benefit public health."

"Our mission is to arm medical professionals with the information they need to make decisions quickly and accurately, and thereby minimize the global impact of stroke," said Vinny Jindal, President and Chief Executive Officer of Quikflo. "Our first software product - Fast Accurate Stroke Triage, or FAST - makes the world-renowned clinical expertise of the Calgary Stroke Program available to every medical center that sees stroke patients, anywhere in the world, to help create better outcomes for patients, hospitals, and healthcare systems."
