Profile: Medwave, Inc. manufactures bracelet blood pressure monitor. We offer Vasotrac® noninvasive direct arterial blood pressure monitoring systems. The Vasotrac® is a noninvasive arterial blood pressure monitor that provides a radial arterial waveform and pressure by a nonocclusive tonometry method. This is achieved by cyclical nonocclusive compression and decompression of the radial artery by a transducer. A number of variables are measured, primarily over three beats at the time of maximum energy transfer, and blood pressures are algorithmically calculated. Its accuracy is reported in both adult volunteers and surgical & intensive care unit patients, as well as in pediatric patients after cardiac surgery. In its continuous mode it can provide an arterial blood pressure reading every 12 to 15 beats. It is a suitable substitute for one radial arterial catheter during liver transplantation.
The company was founded in 1984, has revenues of < USD 1 Million, has ~30 employees and is ISO 9001, CE certified. OTC:MDWV (SEC Filings)

• Non-Invasive Blood-Pressure Measurement System (FDA Code: DXN / 870.1130) A noninvasive blood pressure measurement system is a device that provides a signal from which systolic, diastolic, mean, or any combination of the three pressures can be derived through the use of tranducers placed on the surface of the body. |
