Testimonials
“This machine is saving lives, there are no two ways about it.” Professor Brendan Smith, Anesthetist, Intensivist and Emergency Physician, N.S.W. Dept of Health, Australia
“The USCOM device is a simple method of accurately and noninvasively measuring central circulation, a goal of cardiology for many years. …… the device has the potential to change the way we approach management of many cardiovascular diseases including sepsis, heart failure and hypertension.” Professor Malcolm West, Cardiologist, Mayne Professor of Medicine at The University of Queensland School of Medicine, Brisbane, Australia.
“We have used USCOM for over 5 years now on our very sick children, and we use it to guide our management. We are now beginning multi-centre, global research which will define the way USCOM is used in Paediatric Departments across the world.” Dr Joe Brierley, Consultant Intensivist, Great Ormond Street Hospital for Sick Children, London, UK.
