FDA Marketing Clearance for the "Vicorder" New Portable Device to Detect Peripheral Vascular Disease
Jan 2, 2008--(HSMN NewsFeed)--PHYSICIANS Resource Network, Inc today announced the FDA has granted 510(k)marketing clearance for the Vicorder manufactured by Skidmore Medical. The Vicorder
is a new USB driven vascular diagnostic system which utilizes proprietary software
within a Windows operating system to provide Hospitals and Vascular labs a cost-efficient method to diagnose peripheral vascular disease.
Robert B. Gaw President of PRN, Inc today announced the creation of PRN Vascular, Inc
to distribute the Vicorder throughout North and South America through an agreement
with Skidmore Medical. PRN Vascular has brought together a team with over 75 years
experience in the peripheral vascular equipment market. Mr. Gaw expects a very strong
demand for the smallest USB powered vascular device due to increased patient and
physician awareness of peripheral vascular disease and stroke prevention. The Vicorder
combines Doppler ultrasound, Photoplethysmography (PPG), and Pneumoplethysmography (PVR) to produce a full vascular report of a patient's vascular
condition. PRNV is currently seeking representatives throughout the United States and
North and South America.
Physicians Resource Network, Inc. has distributed new and reconditioned medical
equipment to physicians, hospitals and international dealers for over 20 years. For more
