From Coast to Coast - Delta Development Team Sets the Standard for Prehospital Blood Storage

TUCSON, Ariz., May 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Delta Development Team (DDT) is proud to announce that its innovative APRU 6L portable blood refrigerator and Delta ICE 2L Smart Blood Cooler are setting a national benchmark for prehospital blood storage and transport, revolutionizing healthcare on both the West and East coasts, helping emergency services deliver life-saving care from California to New Jersey, and nearly every state in between.

This achievement comes as leaders in their respective states, University Hospital EMS in Newark, NJ and Corona Fire Department in Corona, CA, have set the standard for bringing this life-saving initiative to the prehospital setting. These agencies are just some of the first in the expansion of blood transfusion programs within their states and across the country.

"We began working on this program in 2022 and have spent the last three years ensuring we can safely and effectively provide this service to patients in need," said Jason Brady, University Hospital EMS Executive Director. "Throughout that time, our partnership with the Delta Development Team has been instrumental. Their responsiveness, innovation, and deep understanding of our mission have made them more than just a vendor—they are a trusted collaborator. We are extremely satisfied with their support and proud of what we've accomplished together."

Designed originally for military use, the APRU portable blood refrigerator has effortlessly transitioned into the prehospital care environment. This state-of-the-art device ensures precise temperature control, rugged durability, and unparalleled accountability, making it a trusted device in mission-critical scenarios such as trauma response, mass casualty incidents, and remote medical deployments.

The Delta ICE 2L Smart Blooder Cooler, on the other hand, was designed with the prehospital emergency setting in mind: a hi-tech passive cooler that displays real-time temperature, with intuitive software for remote blood management, ensuring compliance and traceability.

By meeting the rigorous demands of prehospital care environments, both the APRU and Delta ICE have become two of the most trusted and efficient transportable blood storage devices on the market, setting a new standard in emergency medical care.

"Having our technology support such trailblazing programs from both ends of the country is a powerful validation of our mission," said Montgomery Leija, CEO at Delta Development Team. "We are honored to play a role in advancing prehospital care and enabling emergency responders to deliver transfusions when and where they're needed most."

As California and New Jersey continue to lead their states' charge in advancing healthcare solutions, DDT remains dedicated to supporting first responders with innovative technologies that enhance patient outcomes. With its reliable, easy-to-use, and durable designs, its cutting-edge thermal systems are poised to become cornerstones in emergency medical care across the nation.
