Zargis Medical Corp. Strikes Gold at 2010 Edison Awards
Zargis Cardioscan software supports physicians in analyzing cardiac sounds for the identification and classification of suspected murmurs, which can be signs of heart disease, and allows healthcare professionals to record, visualize and transmit recordings made with a stethoscope. The software represents a breakthrough in computer-aided auscultation that has the potential to reduce unnecessary referrals.
"Pairing the Littmann Electronic Stethoscope Model 3200 with Zargis Cardioscan software is a huge advancement in changing the way clinicians listen to and interpret heart sounds," said Debra Rectenwald, president and general manager, 3M Infection Prevention Division.
