The resting ECG

A ten second snapshot of a heart's electrical signals at rest is the most common diagnostic cardiology procedure. Performed in physicians' offices, clinics, and hospitals throughout the world, this test is often the first step in screening and diagnosing disorders of the heart.

Our ECG systems not only record and print ECGs, they also provide physicians with computer-generated interpretation, an invaluable 'silent' second opinion. These interpretations are based on the internationally respected University of Glasgow algorithm, a comprehensive and accurate analysis tool that considers critical variables such as age, gender and race.

We market a broad portfolio of electrocardiographs. In the physicians office, where efficiency is important, our compact, single-channel electrocardiographs are popular entry level units. In clinics and settings where multi-channel diagnostic capability is required, our mid-range products provide more on-board storage and additional features. In high-volume hospitals, our electrocardiographs provide maximum storage, configurability and connectivity to enhance work flow in the most demanding setting.

An accurate, reliable ECG recording is the core of diagnostic cardiology and the focus of our electrocardiographs. We have the largest probable installed base of ECG devices in the domestic office market and is extending our position in the hospital market.
