ORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CardioComm Solutions, Inc. (TSX-V: EKG.V - News), a leading provider of innovative hardware and software solutions for cardiovascular health management, has signed an equipment purchase agreement with AstraZeneca Canada, which will be used to support a heart health research project.
Etienne Grima, CEO of CardioComm Solutions, stated, “This is our first direct agreement with a leading Canadian pharmaceutical company. As part of this agreement, CardioComm will coordinate and manage a web-based, virtual Holter recording collection service through our existing C4 (CardioComm Coordinating Centre) service. Recordings uploaded through various clinical trial sites will be collected, validated and then provided for analysis.”
The study’s Holter equipment was specifically selected from NorthEast Monitoring, Inc. (NEMon). Scott Winick, Director, Sales and Marketing for NEMon, stated, “We’ve been collaborating with CardioComm Solutions for several years on a variety of projects, but this is the largest thus far. We feel that CardioComm has a much wider vision as a provider of cardiac services than most. With their input, we have developed a virtual Holter system that CardioComm Solutions will deploy via their C4 Service. We’re pleased to provide our technology to and collaborate with visionary partners like CardioComm, and look forward to developing an even closer relationship in the future.”
