Cardiovascular Disease is Highly Prevalent and Poorly Diagnosed

  • 1 in 3 deaths annually are caused by heart

disease and stroke.

  • 1.5 million people suffer heart attacks annually

in the U.S.

  • Nearly 1/3 of the deaths could be prevented

through proactive changes in clinical management or lifestyle

  • Often the FIRST SYMPTOM of coronary artery

disease is a heart attack.

  • Current front line cardiovascular health

diagnostics are insensitive at measuring heart disease development

  • Specialized cardiovascular diagnostics

are highly invasive and expensive and generally only catch cardiovascular disease AFTER it’s developed ...we need a simple way to proactively measure and monitor cardiovascular system health BEFORE the development of heart disease

The First Sign of Heart Disease is Often a Heart Attack

Knowing the core health of the cardiovascular system is critical to preventing future heart attacks and strokes

  • Monitoring cardiovascular health changes over time is key to prevention via

lifestyle modification, physician care and ongoing monitoring.

  • Traditional measures of blood pressure and cholesterol measurements are only

partial indicators of cardiovascular health.

Early Heart Disease Detection Is Critical

Endothelial function tests measure when arteries are vulnerable to developing atherosclerosis

  • Endothelium: a single layer of cells that line the heart, blood and lymphatic

vessels.

  • Function: Acts as a shield, preventing plaque from forming inside the artery

wall, and produce substances that stop blood clots from developing in the vessel.

Monitoring Endothelial Health Predicts Onset of Heart Disease

  • Monitoring endothelial function over

time predicts the onset of heart disease long before symptoms begin.

Current Endothelial Function Measurement Tools are Complicated and Expensive

  • Gold standard - ULTRASOUND
  • Measurement directly views arterial diameter

changes

  • Only at specialized diagnostic centers
  • Requires trained ultrasonographer
  • Expensive capital equipment needed
  • Alternative method - ENDOPAT
  • Measurement uses a fingertip blood oxygen

sensor and laptop computer.

  • Only at specialized diagnostic centers
  • Requires trained technician

Currently only used in specialized research centers by highly trained staff

Lexington Has a Simple and Elegant Solution

An easy-to-use product designed to easily and accurately measure endothelial function HeartSentry stimulates the endothelium and then accurately measures the arterial response. In healthy patients, arterial volume changes after endothelial stimulation are much greater than baseline levels, typically by more than 80%. HeartSentry is compact and inexpensive enough for use in the professional clinic market as well as the home market.

HeartSentry U.S. Market Approval is Fast Tracked

HEARTSENTRY is an FDA regulated product that will use the 510(k) premarket notification process HeartSentry FDA Classification:

  • Class: II
  • Panel: Cardiovascular

Likely HeartSentry Predicate Devices

  • Itamar Medical EndoPat 2000
  • iHealth Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor

International market approvals are also being pursued. The 510(k) process demonstrates to the FDA that the device to be marketed is as safe and effective, and is substantially equivalent (SE) to an existing legally marketed predicate device
