BRANFORD, Conn., Jan. 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CAS Medical Systems,
Inc. (Nasdaq: CASM) announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) has given clearance for the Company to market the new Model 750E Series
Monitor. Coming just six months after the launch of the 750C Monitor, the new
750E incorporates either 3- or 5-lead ECG with impedance respiration along
with the Companys proprietary MAXNIBP(R) non-invasive blood pressure, a
choice of Masimo Corporation SET(R) Pulse Oximetry or Nellcor(R) OxiMax(R)
Pulse Oximetry, and Oridion Systems Ltd. Microstream(R) Capnography. The
Company plans to launch this product within the first quarter of 2006.
Like the 750C, the 750E features "best-in-class" parameters that make a
difference in patient care. The clinically proven Masimo SET Pulse Oximetry
offers clinicians solutions to the problems of inaccuracy and false alarms
associated with pulse oximetry due to patient motion, low perfusion and other
challenging conditions. The Oridion Microstream Capnography provides a
complete monitoring solution that can be used throughout patient care in
emergency medical care, Emergency Department, ICU, OR, in-hospital transport,
and procedural sedation. In addition, CAS own MAXNIBP technology has a
proven reputation for fast, accurate blood pressure determinations for a range
of patients from neonatal through adult under the most challenging situations.
With the addition of the 750E, the Companys monitoring product line
includes a full range of non-invasive measurement parameters for a wide
variety of clinical applications, particularly in the areas of outpatient
surgery, oral surgery and procedural sedation. "We are very pleased to expand
our product line to include the measurement of ECG and impedance respiration",
stated Louis P. Scheps, President and CEO of CAS Medical Systems, Inc. "With
the 750E, 750C and our well established 740 vital signs monitor, we can
provide high quality, cost effective, extensive patient monitoring solutions
to the clinician. We expect that this full line of products, with its
advanced, best-in-class technologies, will provide new opportunities for
growth and further expansion of our monitoring business."
