From the AED and ECG machine to the modern stress test, Cardiac Science creates products that improve public health.
At Cardiac Science, we invented the first automated external defibrillator (AED) that was fully automatic, the single-channel interpretive electrocardiogram (ECG machine), and the first modern stress test. We manufacture AED machines, ECG, cardiac stress and holter systems, vital signs monitors, and cardiac rehabilitation equipment.
You'll find our AED and ECG machines in schools, military installations, hospitals, and doctors' offices worldwide. Our cardiac care products are sold under the trusted Burdick®, HeartCentrix®, Powerheart®, and Quinton® names. At Cardiac Science, we work to improve public health by creating products for the management of heart disease.
Cardiac Science offers an ECG system to meet the needs of every clinical environment. Cardiac Science's brands include the best-selling ECG products for physician offices and hospitals. Our ECG system uses the Glasgow algorithm (GRI) to consider clinically significant criteria for more accurate results.
We invented the modern cardiac stress test more than 55 years ago. Today, the Quinton Q-Stress cardiac stress testing system is the hospital industry’s gold standard. The cardiac stress system, winner of multiple awards (most recently Frost & Sullivan's Market Engineering Award) is now in its ninth generation.
Criticare Systems Inc. (CSI) began with a simple pulse oximeter, the year we started 1984. Today, we're recognized worldwide for our product and technological leadership in pulse oximetry, vital signs monitoring and gas and agent analysis. We've also pioneered and patented many medical innovations.
At CSI, we are steadfast in our objective to provide the most advanced, affordable medical systems that reduce costs and improve patient management and safety in today's constantly changing healthcare environment. We are also committed to the development and application of proprietary technology across our product range; this gives us the advantage of having sole control over features, performance, reliability and cost of systems.
We are the first company to;
-
Introduce a low cost, hand held pulse oximeter for spot checks and continuous monitoring of SpO2.
-
Lead early development of non-dispersive infrared monitoring technology with the launching of a first-generation High IQ™ anesthetic gas monitor in 1989; CSI patented a far-infrared technique that automatically identifies and quantifies five anesthetic agents.
-
Introduced, in 1991, the ComfortCuff® NIBP technology for fast, comfortable non-invasive blood pressure readings measured on inflation.
-
Develop DOX™ Digital Oximetry, the first digital pulse oximetry providing higher performance in high motion, low perfusion and ambient noise.
-
Design and introduce the world's first hospital grade ambulatory telemetry monitor which simultaneously transmits real time ECG, NIBP and SpO2 data.
-
Design a reliable water separation system, WaterChek™, for monitoring inspired and expired gases in a high humidity environment.
-
Offer reusable multi-site and reusable Shell sensors (removable hard cover) which can be fully immersed, allowing for sterilization, and which offer significant cost savings compared to disposables.
Cardiac Science Corporation and Criticare Systems Inc. are part of the Opto Circuits Ltd family.
