EXG™ — Pioneering Precision in Cardiac Monitoring

ABOUT US

At CBI, innovation meets expertise. Our roots lie in San Diego, where a team of dedicated Emergency Physicians embarked on a mission to transform cardiac care. We are not just a medical device company; we are innovators and caregivers committed to one crucial goal: to revolutionize the diagnostic quality and consistency of ECG performance. This commitment drives us towards one outcome — ensuring the right intervention is delivered at the right time, for every patient.

Our breakthrough: a state-of-the-art wearable ECG product line designed for continuous 12-lead monitoring, with the capability to expand up to 18 leads for superior STEMI detection. Our technology is crafted to seamlessly integrate across the continuum of care, from prehospital to acute care settings. With EXG™, clinicians are empowered with enhanced speed, accuracy, and efficiency in cardiac diagnostics, paving the way for improved patient outcomes and streamlined care processes.
