About HeartSTAT Technology, Inc.

HeartSTAT is bringing to market the first practical system for monitoring blood flow perfusion (blood oxygen transport) and heart dynamics, which have been impracticalities until now.

Initially, the new HeartSTAT technology is intended for early interventional prevention of septic shock and other conditions that kill 300,000 patients in U.S. hospitals annually, a mortality that is almost as large as cancer. The system is for revealing vital patient problems that alter blood flow while BP does not change, to enable providing earlier and more specific intervention than is presently possible. This system can also provide real time monitoring of heart loads and cardiovascular biophysics, which may later open up a large Internet-based physician market for managing cardiovascular disease, drug interaction, heart attacks and heart failure.
