CardioDynamics is committed to fundamentally changing drug management with ICG. The Company's primary product, the BioZ®, uses proprietary Impedance Cardiography (ICG) technology to noninvasively assess a patient's hemodynamics, data which typically has been available only through a time-consuming, costly, and potentially dangerous invasive procedure called Pulmonary Artery Catheterization (PAC), or the Swan Ganz Catheter.
Since the BioZ's ICG monitoring is noninvasive, it can be performed in outpatient areas such as physician offices, which have never before had access to hemodynamic information in treating heart failure, hypertension, pacemaker and dialysis patients.
In hospitals, BioZ monitoring on surgical or intensive care patients can decrease costs through the elimination of procedure risk, reduction of hospital stay, and minimization of hospital expenditures and personnel.
BioZ monitoring can also provide valuable hemodynamic information in hospital areas where previously it has not been available, such as emergency departments, critical care, step-down units, and dialysis.
