BioSig Technologies, Inc. announced the release of new software features for the PURE EP?? Platform. The novel software features were successfully leveraged for the first time during patient cases conducted at the Kansas City Heart Rhythm Institute ("KCHRI").

Building on the FDA-cleared platform's proprietary combination of advanced hardware and software, PURE EP??'s latest software debuts two new features designed to harness the power of automation, empowering electrophysiologists to identify subtle details in cardiac arrhythmias that are difficult to observe with theaked eye. The new features include: Near-Field Tracking (NFT) automatically monitors changes in the local unipolar electrogram to provide real-time tissue feedback and characterization; helpful information for electrophysiologists as they make their final determinations between healthy and scarred tissue for lesion placement. Automatic Tachycardia Characterization (ATC) now alerts electrophysiologists in real-time to subtle changes in tachycardia conduction patterns, complementing its existing capability to monitor tachycardia rate changes that may warrant further evaluation.

The latest software upgrade builds on existing foundation of PURE EP?? proprietary features which include: PURE ZONE?? visibility of intracardiac signals at high frequency and low amplitude, which provides valuable information for electrophysiologist on heart tissue characterization and localization.

High Frequency Algorithm (HFA) automatically detects and eliminates radiofrequency interference (signal components >200 hertz), directing electrophysiologists' focus on what truly matters--vital intracardiac signals. The findings validate PURE EP??''s ability to deliver clear, stable, trusted unipolar signals, suggesting the potential of an optimized radiofrequency technique to treat arrhythmias. The physician-initiated data revealed a 66% reduction in procedure time while maintaining accuracy, and enhancing precision.

Given the mean cost of operating room time is approximately $37 per minute, PURE EP?? demonstrated potential cost savings of approximately $418.10 per procedure, per data presented at the Asia Pacific Heart Rhythm Society Scientific Session in 2022. Considering electrophysiologists conduct an estimated 75,000 ablations annually in the U.S.,5 PURE EP??, by extension, presents potential healthcare cost savings of over $30 million a year.

With this latest software update, and the use of the NFT feature, additional reimbursement options are applicable when associated services are medically necessary. With this latest software update and the use of the N FT feature, additional reimbursement options are available when associated services are medically necessary.
