Focus on Advancing the State of Cardiac Telemedicine: PDSHeart

Moving Aggressively into Pacemaker Monitoring Services with

Acquisition of Physicians' CardioTrace, Inc., of Cincinnati

PDSHeart,(R) LLC, a national leader in the delivery of cardiac telemedicine, today announced it is further expanding its pacemaker monitoring services in the mid-west, with the acquisition of the business of Physicians' CardioTrace, Inc., of Cincinnati, Ohio. The strategic alliance allows PDSHeart to combine its commitment to quality and technological expertise with the long-standing reputation of Physicians' CardioTrace for premium remote cardiac and pacemaker monitoring services.

PDSHeart is the first telemedicine company to be accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) and is the country's second largest provider of cardiac event monitoring services. It provides physician-prescribed remote and ambulatory care monitoring of non-symptomatic, symptomatic and post-surgical cardiac patients, via landline, cellular telephone and the Internet. PDSHeart's WebHolter(R) is the industry's first web-based digital Holter system.

Sean Heyniger, PDSHeart president and CEO, explained that pacemaker monitoring is a growing market need, one well suited to PDSHeart's services. "Telemonitoring of pacemaker devices is more and more technologically complex because of the complexity of the devices themselves. They require closer surveillance today than ever to assure patients that their devices are functioning properly and to respond quickly to any manufacturers' recalls or advisories.

"PDSHeart's technology infrastructure is designed to keep pace with these demands," he said. "Plus physicians have easy on-line access to their patients' results in near real-time."

Since 1984, Physicians' CardioTrace has provided pacemaker and arrhythmia monitoring services to physicians and their patients in the Midwest area. CEO Nancy Finkelmeier, RN said: "PDSHeart's approach is well in line with the solid reputation earned by Physicians' CardioTrace's outstanding team of cardiac specialists over the years. This alignment creates exciting growth opportunities for both companies -- and for an even higher level of service to our customers."

Heyniger said PDSHeart is focused on advancing the state of telemedicine with cutting edge technology delivered according to the highest quality and clinical care.

"Physicians' CardioTrace shares that commitment. As one of the oldest trans-telephonic cardiac monitoring companies, it has distinguished itself by delivering the high level service expected by its referring physicians," he said. "This level of service is consistent with our model."

Heyniger said that Physicians' CardioTrace pacemaker monitoring will be handled at PDSHeart's state-of-the-art monitoring center in Conyers, GA. Overall, PDSHeart services 4,000 clinics, 12,000 doctors, 110 hospitals and 30 universities nationwide.
