Endothelial Dysfunction: New technology for physicians
Citation preview
PRESENTED BY MEDVICA INT’L
“The electric thimble that detects signs of heart disease”
Ron Lazzarini – 970.227.1314 – [email protected]
WHAT IS IT? FDA approved, CE-marked, and validated by nearly
100 papers in peer-reviewed journals This device non-invasively measures endothelial
function Endothelial dysfunction is defined as either
decreased bioavailability of nitric oxide (which is integral to endothelial health), or as an impairment of endothelium-dependent vasodilation
Systemic manifestations of endothelial dysfunction include: stroke/TIA’s, sudden death from myocardial infarction, renal failure, sleep apnea, erectile dysfunction, metabolic syndrome, claudication, and gangrene.
HOW DOES IT WORK? Fingertip probes measure endothelial
function Device software automatically records and
analyzes test results 15 minute test can be given by a tech
while the patient waits for the doctor
TEST EXAMPLE
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS? CPT coded (93923) for simple billing and minimal conflict
with insurance companies Increases office revenue while simultaneously
increasing the patients’ quality of care and quality of life Provides incremental data to better predict and treat
patients at risk for CVD, patients who would otherwise go undetected.
More effectively monitor treatment for better patient outcomes.
Measures earliest signs of atherosclerosis, while it is still reversible
Monitors effectiveness of patients being treated for cardiac disease
WHO IS IT FOR? Patients who have one or more cardiac risk
factors Patients on medications – looking for
response and non responders Family members of patients diagnosed with
CAD
WHAT’S THE POINT? Improved quality of patient care. Better patient monitoring means improved
cardiac health and fewer cardiac events. Reduce healthcare costs. $28.6B per year is
spent on treating patients with congestive heart failure. EndoPAT detects cardiac risk while it is still reversible.
Increase revenue for doctors. Private insurers reimburse up to $500 per test, adding to the bottom-line of the doctor’s office.

CONCLUSIONS
EndoPAT 2000 provides incremental data to better predict and treat patients at risk for Cardio-Vascular Disease, patients who would otherwise go undetected.
EndoPAT studies tell you if treatment is effective.
Improved patient monitoring and early detection means increased patient compliance with pharmaceutical treatment and lifestyle recommendations.
