TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - May 28, 2012) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Attention: Business/Financial Editors

The Medipattern Corporation ("Medipattern") (TSX VENTURE:MKI), announced today that it has signed a binding letter agreement (the "Transaction") with MYTRAK® Health System Inc. ("MYTRAK") to combine their technologies and launch a new personalized mobile health business called MyTrak Personal Health Solutions, focusing on monitoring physical activity for the management of Metabolic Syndrome. This will be achieved by leveraging MYTRAK's proven wearable mobile technology platform which complements Medipattern's core proprietary cardiovascular visualization and image analysis business launched in by Medipattern in June, 2011. Metabolic Syndrome is a group of medical risk factors that, when occurring together, indicate that an individual is at elevated risk to developing cardiovascular disease and/or diabetes. Medipattern will acquire MyTrak's Mobile Technology Business Unit including intellectual property and patented technology through this transaction.

"The Transaction is expected to be highly accretive for Medipattern shareholders as the potential market for the MyTrak Personal Health Solutions is a multi-billion dollar industry. The market for wireless wearable devices is expected to hit 165 million units by 2017 according to industry analysts ABI Research while the medical component is estimated to have an annual compound growth rate of 65%. The mobile health market is being driven in the United States by wide spread adoption of devices with over 50% of people already using a mobile device. The P ew Research Center, Internet and American Life Project, reports that 17% of US mobile phone users are already accessing health information on their mobile devices with an estimated 44 million health apps having been downloaded in 2011," stated Jeff Collins, President and CEO of Medipattern.

Smart Coach uses personal biometric information such as age, s ex, weight, height as well as the user's lifestyle information such as job description, smoker status, physical fitness level, Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) and any injury or malady information. With all such information uploaded to a host server, accessible via any wireless or hard-wired device connected to the internet, MyTrak's technology platform enables the monitoring of physical activity, lifestyle and nutritional habits; to provide personalized coaching and proactive intervention to support a change in each user's individual behaviour for the prevention and management of Metabolic Syndrome. Daily physical activity has been proven to play a key role in reducing the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

The dramatic rise in obesity is fueling an increase in cases of diabetes and cardiovascular disease, significantly adding to the rising cost of health care in the U.S.1 The estimated annual cost of diabetes in the U.S. was $174 billion in 2007, including $116 billion in direct medical costs.2 The number of Americans with diabetes has more than doubled since 1980, primarily due to increases in Type 2 diabetes, which is closely associated with obesity, inactivity and aging. The U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) now estimates that 25.8 million Americans have diabetes and that 7 million of them do not know it.3 In 2010, the total cost for cardiovascular disease in the United States was estimated to be $444 billion.4 This total includes the cost of health care services, medications, and lost productivity. The primary risk factors for cardiovascular disease are inactivity, obesity, diet, blood pressure, cholesterol and family history.

"While continuing to grow our vascular business, we noticed the majority of patients are placed in continuing follow-up care with a common theme to lose weight, exercise daily and return for a visit in 6 months," stated Jeff Collins. "Many of these patients are at high risk to heart attack and stroke. There are no effective monitoring programs designed to track individual physical activity, lifestyle, behavior, nutrition, nor progress toward the patient's personal training program for improved health. Many doctors have asked us if there is a way we could track these patients and compare the patient's actual performance against their individual training program."

Collins continues, "MyTrak Personal Health Solutions will provide exactly that solution in a patented, easy to use, effective and proven package. MYTRAK's well established in-club technology has been deployed in nearly 4,000 health clubs worldwide where the automated system monitors and guides people through approximately three million workouts weekly in 21 countries. MyTrak Personal Health Solutions will be responding to the growing concern of health plan administrators, health practitioners, as well as employers in the United States who are looking for technology solutions, smart phone apps, and social community portals, each delivering intervention strategies to better engage patients and employees in their daily health and wellness, including monitoring individual prescriptions, weight and providing tools to enhance communications with providers and hospitals."

"MyTrak has successfully tackled the real need and has helped millions of people improve their health by working out effectively using MYTRAK systems. Now, by combining both company's technologies into a wearable mobile solution we are confident we can help millions more who struggle with the management of their conditions through personalized monitoring of their progress with enhanced physical activity and better lifestyle choices," said Reed Hanoun President and CEO of MYTRAK Health System Inc.
