BioSig Technologies to Present at the 40th International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society

BioSig Technologies, Inc., a medical device company developing a proprietary biomedical signal processing platform designed to address an unmet technology need for the $4.6 billion electrophysiology (EP) marketplace, announced that the research poster entitled “Unipolar Intracardiac Signal Morphology as a Parameter for Catheter Contact Evaluation” will be presented on Wednesday, July 18 from 17:15 – 19 in Exhibit Hall 2 during the 40th International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC 2018).

BioSig’s paper discusses a very significant problem common for current electrophysiology (EP) studies. Optimal contact between catheter tip and myocardial tissue is very important as it affects both the accuracy of cardiac maps and the efficacy of ablation energy delivery. Our findings suggest that the morphology of a unipolar signal obtained by using our PURE EP(TM) System can provide incremental information in proper contact evaluation.

“BioSig continues to collaborate with the best scientists in the electrophysiology field and strives toward advancing the understanding of treatments for complex arrhythmias. These findings can potentially lead to more effective ablation strategies, and ultimately, and more importantly, better outcomes for patients,” commented Kenneth L. Londoner, Chairman and CEO of BioSig Technologies, Inc.

About EMBC 2018
The IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society is hosting its 40th International Engineering in Medicine and Biology Conference in Honolulu, Hawaii from July 17-21, 2018 at the Hawaii Convention Center. The theme of the meeting is “Learning from the Past, Looking to the Future”, inspired by the 40th anniversary of the world’s largest international biomedical engineering meeting. The conference will highlight plenary keynotes from leading industrial and academic scientists and cover cutting-edge research and innovation in biomedical engineering, healthcare technology R&D, translational clinical research, technology transfer and entrepreneurship, and biomedical engineering education.

About BioSig Technologies
BioSig Technologies is a medical device company developing a proprietary biomedical signal processing technology designed to improve the $4.6 billion electrophysiology (EP) marketplace (www.biosigtech.com). Led by a proven management team and a veteran, independent Board of Directors, Los Angeles-based BioSig Technologies is preparing to commercialize its PURE EP(TM) System. The technology has been developed to address an unmet need in a large and growing market.

The Company’s first product, PURE EP(TM) System, is a novel cardiac signal acquisition and display system which is engineered to assist electrophysiologists in clinical decision making during procedures to diagnose and treat patients with abnormal heart rates and rhythms. BioSig’s main goal is to deliver technology to improve upon catheter ablation treatments for the prevalent and deadly arrhythmias, Atrial Fibrillation and Ventricular Tachycardia. BioSig has partnered with Minnetronix on technology development and is working toward FDA 510(k) clearance for the PURE EP(TM) System.
