A reputation for innovation and excellence
In 1953, Dr. Robert Bruce developed a protocol that made possible consistent and repeatable cardiac testing at elevated
heart rates. Soon after, Wayne Quinton created the world’s first mechanical treadmill designed to monitor cardiac
function in exercising patients. Together, Bruce and Quinton pioneered the technology for modern cardiac stress testing.
Today the Quinton Q-Stress cardiac stress system, winner of multiple awards, is in its ninth generation. You can depend
on Q-Stress to deliver consistent, durable and reliable performance to keep your department running smoothly.
We are often acknowledged as a global leader in the cardiac stress testing market. Supporting the innovation designed into all of our stress test systems are proprietary medical treadmills, the industry's "gold standard".
