Applied Cardiac Systems (ACS)
Applied Cardiac Systems (ACS) is known to be a U.S leader in the field of ambulatory cardiac monitoring. ACS was incorporated in 1981 as a Holter monitoring recorder manufacture. Soon after, ACS developed its complete Holter Monitoring System to provide a complete solution in a competitive Holter Monitoring marketplace.
ACS has proven to be a competitive Holter monitoring company over the last 30 years. ACS claims to have great market share in the private office Holter Monitoring segment. With a steady presence in Holter Monitoring, it only seems logical that ACS would expand into other forms of ambulatory cardiac monitoring now offering Cardiac Event Monitoring with a new dual-function recording device.
Competitive Advantage in Holter Monitoring
ACS is known by competitors in the industry to have a very loyal customer base. As more and more companies outsource product development and product overseas, ACS leverages the ‘made in the USA’ for all of their products and services. ACS takes great pride in their products and keeping their promises and commitments to their customers.
ACS touts their competitive advantage in Holter monitoring as providing Cardiology-grade equipment at the most competitive prices. With quality being their foundation, ACS offers a unique Ultra High Resolution ECG Waveform (trademark) where they make claims that they can capture true high resolution ECG that other low resolution Holter cannot detect. In the event of capturing pacemaker artifact, ACS claims to be one of the only companies that can capture this waveform in its true form. Low resolution waveforms tend to use algorithms to draw in the pacer spike where it estimates the waveform to be.
Holter Monitor Technology
With regards to device technology, ACS has a reputation for providing high quality, reliable instrumentation backed by the best support in the Cardiac Monitoring space. ACS now claims to have a ‘revolutionary’ cardiac monitoring device that can perform 3 billable cardiac tests. The new device called the Performer Plus™ can perform 24-48 hours Holter Study, long term continuous Holter study as well as a symptomatic cardiac event monitor.
The Performer Plus monitor from ACS has several advantages over the competition. In addition to the multifunction features, the new ACS monitor has exceptional battery life. The device operates at low energy with recording capabilities up to 30 days on one charge! Further, the ACS device can transmit via iPhone, iPad, cell phone application, internet and trans-telephonic communication.
ACS maintains that it provides the Cardiologist with reliable product, sound service & greater revenue potential to the physicians as compared to the traditional ‘service model’ offered by most service companies.
