Greg H. Guettler, President of Hypertension Diagnostics, said: “We are
looking forward to introducing our CVProfilor® DO-2020 System
technology to physicians, other health care professionals and opinion
leaders who specialize in cardiovascular nutrition by providing personal
CVProfile™ tests to all attendees. Medical research suggests that factors
such as diet, weight and level of physical activity may play a significant
role in the development of cardiovascular disease. Similarly, the same
interventions used to prevent cardiovascular disease are also effective in
treating it. Nutrition appears to be one of many contributors to
structural abnormalities of the arterial wall (that is, the endothelium)
which precede atherosclerosis (that is hardening of the arteries) and
cardiovascular events. The CVProfilor® DO-2020 System offers a
means to assess one’s vascular health (including endothelial function) by
providing a painless, non-invasive measurement of both large and small
artery elasticity.”
Hypertension Diagnostics, Inc. designs, develops, manufactures and markets
proprietary cardiovascular profiling systems for medical applications and
clinical research. These systems are marketed to physicians, other health
care professionals and researchers by a direct sales force and via
distributors throughout the world. In addition to providing blood pressure
values, the systems non-invasively detect subtle changes in the compliance
or elasticity of both large and small arteries which is a unique feature
of HDI’s technology.
