BioSig Increases Installation Footprint Adding St. Elizabeth’s Medical Center to Roster of Premium Medical Institutions Utilizing the PURE EP System

The Company expands into exploration of its novel signal processing technology in physiologic pacing procedures

Westport, CT, Sept. 13, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioSig Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: BSGM) (“BioSig” or the “Company”), a medical technology company commercializing an innovative signal processing platform designed to improve signal fidelity and uncover the full range of ECG and intra-cardiac signals, today announced the Company would be installing a PURE EP(tm) System for evaluation at St. Elizabeth’s Medical Center in Boston, MA.

The Company initiated this new evaluation program under the leadership of Michael Orlov, M.D., aiming to assess the PURE EP(tm) System during a series of physiologic pacing procedures. Physiologic pacing is an emerging pacing technique designed to activate the normal cardiac conduction system and synchronize contraction of the ventricles. This approach to pacing the heart has demonstrated improved clinical and hemodynamic benefits beyond standard pacing techniques.

“We are pleased to grow our clinical presence in Boston and collaborate with Dr. Orlov on this expanded use of the PURE EP(tm) System. The physiologic pacing procedure could benefit from advanced signal information to optimize lead placement and improve procedural outcomes. We look forward to combining our cardiac signal acquisition technology with advanced pacing therapies to treat more cardiac rhythm disorders,” commented Kenneth L. Londoner, Chairman, and CEO of BioSig Technologies, Inc.
“This marks our 13^th hospital partner, and we remain on track to achieve our 2021 goals of targeted market expansion.”

The PURE EP(tm) is an FDA 510(k) cleared non-invasive class II device that aims to drive procedural efficiency and efficacy in cardiac electrophysiology. To date, over 60 physicians have completed over 1300 patient cases with the PURE EP(tm) System across twelve clinical sites.

The Company recently completed its first multi-centered, prospective clinical trial and presented preliminary clinical data during the annual Heart Rhythm 2021 convention in July in Boston, MA.

The Company is in a focused commercial launch of the PURE EP(tm) System in the Northeast, Texas, and Florida and is in regular use in some of the country’s leading centers of excellence, including the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, and St. David’s Medical Center in Austin, TX.  

One in 18 Americans suffers from a cardiac arrhythmia. Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia type, affecting over 33 million people worldwide, including over 6 million in the U.S. The number of people suffering from atrial fibrillation is expected to reach 8-12 million by 2050¹. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), atrial fibrillation causes more than 750,000 hospitalizations in the U.S. each year, resulting in approximately $6 billion in healthcare spending annually².
