_*_ Why the Uscom mission is important for medicine**

  • Life is dependent on the delivery of adequate oxygen

  • Deprived of oxygen the cells begin to die in 2 minutes

  • The circulation delivers oxygen to the cells Air, carrying oxygen, is inhaled into the lungs

  • Oxygen is transferred to the blood in the lungs Blood is circulated to the cells via the vessels The heart pumps the blood

  • Uscom owns practice leading and innovative technologies in all areas

  • SpiroSonic measures the air entering and leaving the lungs

  • Uscom BP+ measures the function of the vessels

  • USCOM 1A measures the function of the heart
