Clinical Relevance

A biomedical device - no matter how revealing the data it delivers is - can only achieve clinical relevance by improving the medical outcome.

Medical Outcome is optimized, when both following factors are improved:

1. the condition of a patient at the end of a therapy, including the degree of wellness AND
2. the costs for medical care, medication, support, counseling or education

For CNSystems' technologies the following efforts have been made:

1. Analysis of the current clinical practice - how are hemodynamics measured today?

2. CNAP^® must provide data within a clinically accurate range.

   • How is "Clinical Accuracy" defined?
   • Is CNAP^® clinically accurate? - Demonstration of clinical data
   • Accuracy of Cardiac Output
3. Identification of the most important information that leads to clinically relevant therapy consequences and therefore improves medical outcome including cost reduction.
   
   • Hemodynamic Optimization
   • Early detection of hypo- and hypertension
   • Guideline conform assessment of syncope
   • Assessment of Autonomic Function
