Press Releases Phononic, REXHealthcare

Commitment to Innovation & Patient Care Drives Adoption of Disruptive Cold Storage Solutions

Durham, N.C. – March 21, 2017 – Phononic, the company revolutionizing cooling and heating with solid-state technology, today announced that UNC REX Healthcare, a private, not-for-profit community hospital in the UNC Health Care system, has outfitted its newly opened North Carolina Heart & Vascular Hospital at UNC REX with Evolve refrigerators. UNC REX Healthcare has deployed a combination of 1.8 and 5.5 CuFt Evolve products in its pharmacy, patient support areas and medicine rooms in conjunction with medication management systems. The installation was facilitated by REX Health Ventures (RHV), an innovation platform created by UNC REX Healthcare to foster and nurture innovative technologies and companies in the healthcare sector.

Powered by advanced solid-state refrigeration, Phononic’s line of high-performing Evolve refrigerators provide uniform, precise and reliable cooling without the noise, toxicity and other detriments of conventional vapor compression refrigerators. Phononic’s Evolve product line will change how UNC REX Healthcare delivers patient care, equipping staff with more accurate, reliable temperature control and superior inventory protection. As nursing staff no longer needs to be concerned about refrigerators, it enables them to spend more time with patients and their families providing better and more comprehensive care.

“The Evolve refrigerators are simplistic in design and have less moving parts, which makes them easy to maintain and energy efficient,” said Jeff Carter, Director of Facilities, Construction and Biomedical Engineering at UNC REX Healthcare. “When we tested the refrigerators in the lab, we found them to be very reliable, providing close, tight temperature tolerances and were easy for staff to access and use. This is why we decided to deploy Evolve in our new 306,000-square-foot hospital.”

“Evolve is the most advanced refrigeration available for medical, pharmaceutical and laboratory cold storage, delivering superior protection and control,” said Jerilin Kenney, VP/GM Life Sciences & Healthcare, Phononic. “As an innovator in the healthcare field, we are excited to partner with UNC REX Healthcare as the organization is as committed to innovation and quality as we are. This partnership showcases the next generation technologies we’ll see implemented across healthcare.”
