Medical device company BioSig has inked a 10-year strategic partnership with Mayo Clinic and Mayo Clinic Ventures. The expanded par expanded collaboration with Mayo builds upon the work realized under the Advanced Clinical Research Program that was signed with Mayo Clinic in March 2016.
Partnership Details
As part of 10-year agreement, BioSig and Mayo will be developing advanced clinical features and applications for the company’s PURE EP System, which is addressing an unmet technology need for electrophysiology. PURE EP System is a novel cardiac signal acquisition and display system which is engineered to assist electrophysiologists in clinical decision making during procedures to diagnose and treat patients with abnormal heart rates and rhythms. The main goal is to deliver technology to improve upon catheter ablation treatments for the prevalent and deadly arrhythmias, Atrial Fibrillation and Ventricular Tachycardia.
Mayo is expected to contribute know-how, intellectual property and clinical support to the partnership. The company expects joint patent filings to come out of the relationship.
“Our experience working with Drs. Asirvatham and Venkatachalam has been outstanding and has resulted in three peer reviewed publications to-date. Adding innovation and intellectual property to the equation should raise this collaboration to a whole new level, likely resulting in better diagnosis and treatment of complex arrhythmias in many patients,” said Greg Cash, President and CEO at BioSig.
