New Orleans, Louisiana-March 5, 2004-Millar Instruments,
Inc., developer and manufacturer of Mikro-Tip® pressure transducer
catheters and pressure-volume (P-V) systems, introduced today at the American
College of Cardiology (ACC) conference, two new models of its popular
pressure-volume system.
The Millar Pressure-Volume System (MPVS) is the only
complete system available in the world today capable of simultaneously
measuring left ventricular pressure and volume from the intact beating
hearts of mice and rats. Millar P-V systems are used worldwide by pharmaceutical,
biotech and university researchers to study changes in hemodynamic parameters
in small animal models of cardiovascular disease.
The MPVS-400 integrates Millar’s proven pressure-volume
hardware with ADInstruments’ data acquisition (DAQ) technology,
offering the researcher a complete hardware solution in a single space-saving
unit. The MPVS-400 also features other new enhancements such as analog
(DIN) and digital (USB) outputs, two pressure channels, one volume channel
and an integrated universal power supply.
The MPVS-300 contains Millar’s pressure-volume
hardware and is an alternative solution for investigators with existing
DAQ solutions in their labs. The MPVS-300 is designed to be compatible
with any commercially available DAQ system.
“Through our joint development and distributor
partnership with ADInstruments, we are very excited about the MPVS-400
offering researchers the total solution. Creating the MPVS-300 that complements
high-quality DAQ offerings from the likes of Notocord, Gould and BIOPAC
Systems, Inc. was essential to have a solution for all researchers,”
said Steve Price, director of sales and marketing at Millar Instruments.
Commercial availability of the two new systems is scheduled
for the second quarter of this year.
Millar Instruments encourages physicians and cardiovascular researchers
to visit them at the ACC conference at the Morial Convention Center, booth
#3036 for a complete demonstration of the two new models, as well as Millar’s
comprehensive offering of Mikro-Tip pressure transducer catheters.
About Millar Instruments
Millar Instruments, Inc., designs, manufactures and markets Mikro-Tip®
catheter pressure transducers for use by medical researchers and clinicians.
This high-precision sensor technology allows pressure measurements to
be taken at the source, without time delay or motion artifacts. Millar
also markets a pressure-volume (P-V) system, capable of simultaneously
measuring high fidelity left ventricular pressure and volume within the
intact beating hearts of small animal models, such as transgenic mice
and rats. An important part of Millar’s success has come from working
with medical researchers around the world. Millar Instruments is committed
to being an integral part of this on-going research by developing products
and systems that further promote medical advancements and discoveries.
