Instrumentation Laboratory (IL) today announced the launch of its Customized
Connectivity solution, GEMweb Plus 500, to hospitals and hospital networks around the world. From a single
dashboard, GEMweb Plus 500 offers complete control of GEM Premier Critical Care testing systems, including
new GEM Premier 5000 with Intelligent Quality Management 2 (iQM^®2), as well as connectivity to non-ILmanufactured
devices at the point-of-care. Expanding upon the original GEMweb Plus platform, GEMweb Plus
500 offers enhanced mobility with accessibility from tablet devices, in addition to any networked analyzer or
PC.

Seamlessly integrating control of analyzers, test results and operators into one easy-to-use system, GEMweb
Plus 500 simplifies and centralizes point-of-care testing management. To ensure quality management, users
can monitor iQM2 and iQM, including detection, correction and documentation of corrective actions in realtime.
Facilitating accreditation, GEMweb Plus 500 automates multi-level operator authorization and full
traceability of users, actions and competency certification.

“GEMweb Plus 500 Custom Connectivity addresses the challenge of managing point-of-care testing in
hospitals today. Combining test results, analyzer and operator data, it offers Lab Managers and Point-of-Care
Coordinators real-time control from anywhere, anytime, as well as seamless accreditation support,” said
Giovanni Russi, VP of Worldwide Marketing at IL. “Together with our new GEM Premier 5000 system,
GEMweb Plus 500 Custom Connectivity delivers a complete Critical Care testing solution for improved patient
care and efficiency.”

GEMweb Plus 500 supports integration with Hospital Information Systems, Laboratory Information Systems
and Electronic Medical Records. Users can access data from any networked GEM Premier analyzer, including
GEM Premier 5000, 4000 and 3500 systems, and non-IL devices in real-time. Connectivity to ROTEM^®,
Hemochron^® and other IL systems is currently in development.
