- 50% reduction in mortality
- additional 10% greater reduction when combined with the weight scale and blood pressure cuff.

Display your patient's response to CTR and/or drug therapy and prevent HF disease progression with this clinically proven diagnostic platform.
- Respiratory Rate Trend
Display your patient's breathing patterns to give you insight into the progression of heart failure.
