About HDI's Products 

Hypertension Diagnostics, Inc., headquartered in Eagan, Minnesota, was founded in July 1988 to develop a proprietary blood pressure waveform analysis methodology into a non-invasive means for measuring the elasticity of large and small arteries. HDI has developed proprietary blood pressure waveform analysis technology which has been incorporated into the design of a product made specifically for research purposes. 

   

      

   

    

   

 

The HDI/PulseWave CR-2000 is an easy-to-use, non-invasive System designed for research purposes. This Research CardioVascular Profiling System provides researchers and scientists with a non-invasive means to assess arterial elasticity in support of human research in a variety of areas including:

  • Pharmaceutical Studies

  • Hypertension

  • Diabetes

  • Smoking

  • Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)

  • Hyperlipidemia

  • Diet and Exercise

  • Renal Failure

  • Endothelial Function

    

The HDI/PulseWave™ CR-2000 is a plug-and-play system that requires no additional accessories.
   
      

By analyzing non-invasively derived blood pressure waveform data obtained through HDI’s proprietary Arterial PulseWave™ Sensor, the CR-2000 provides information that correlates with 15 cardiovascular parameters:

Blood Pressure Waveform
Systolic Blood Pressure
Diastolic Blood Pressure
Mean Arterial Blood Pressure
Pulse Pressure
Pulse Rate
Estimated Cardiac Ejection Time
Estimated Stroke Volume
Estimated Stroke Volume Index
Estimated Cardiac Output
Estimated Cardiac Index
Large Artery Elasticity Index

    (Capacitive Arterial Compliance)
Small Artery Elasticity Index
    (Oscillatory/Reflective Arterial Compliance)
Systemic Vascular Resistance
Total Vascular Impedance

      

NOTE: In the United States, the HDI/PulseWave CR-2000 Research CardioVascular Profiling System is for research purposes only. 

The HDI/PulseWave™ Research System has a medical device CE Mark which allows it to be marketed in the European Union. The CR-2000 Research System is available in the following languages: English, French, German, Italian and Spanish.
