The NEW Vantage ABITM

A Clinical Innovation for the ABI Exam

ONE TOUCH – 3 MINUTE ABI

The Vantage ABI is an innovative system with a cuff-based technology for performing the ankle-brachial index (ABI) exam to assist in the diagnosis of peripheral arterial disease (P.A.D.)

Market OverviewMarket Overview

Peripheral Arterial Disease (P.A.D.)

Affects 8–12 million people in U.S.1

Under-diagnosed and under-treated

Narrowing of arteries (atherosclerosis)

Symptoms can be misinterpreted as normal aging or arthritis pain

Undetected P.A.D. associated with 2 to 3 fold increase in mortality 2 to 6 fold increase in heart attack and

stroke as well as severe decline in quality of life Leading cause of leg amputation (150K annually)2

More common than heart disease, cancer and stroke

Market OverviewMarket Overview

Fortunately…

Current increase in public and professional awareness of P.A.D.

Early detection can prevent further cardiovascular events: heart attack, stroke & death

Reimbursement rates increased to an average of $114/exam*.

Doppler ultrasound for diagnosis of P.A.D. Now easier to use Less expensive to acquire Reimbursable

•This average is based on Medicare Fee Schedules, CMS Part B Contractors, 2011. Arterial exams must be medically necessary in order toseek reimbursement. Other requirements, such as vascular accreditation may apply. Healthcare providers are advised to contact their third-party payers for specific coverage, coding and payment information. Summit Doppler Systems, Inc. makes no promise or\guarantee of reimbursement by Medicare or any other third-party payer.

Market OverviewMarket Overview

Annual testing is recommended for patients at risk by national health organizations

Ankle brachial index (ABI) exam is performed for the diagnosis of P.A.D.

Patients at high risk 70+ years of age Smokers 50+ years of age Diabetics 50+ years of age Diabetics < 50 who smoke with 1 or

more additional risk factors Abnormal pulses during exam Claudication in the leg Critical limb ischemia (CLI)

Awareness & Diagnosis of P.A.D.Awareness & Diagnosis of P.A.D.

The American Heart Association, American Diabetes Association and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are currently working to promote awareness nationally.

In 2006, the National Heart, Lung & Blood Institute (under the NIH) developed “Stay In Circulation”, a 3 year campaign, in cooperation with the P.A.D. Coalition, an alliance of national organizations and professional societies united to raise awareness.

Research has led to new medications that can help manage P.A.D. thus, pharmaceutical companies have launched public awareness campaigns to increase the education of P.A.D.

Increase in public and professional awareness opened up a market opportunity for Summit Doppler’s ABI systems for physicians to diagnose the disease.

Awareness & Diagnosis of P.A.D.Awareness & Diagnosis of P.A.D.

Patient lays in a supine or SEATED position (using the Vista AVS)

Clinician obtains the systolic pressures at the lower and upper extremities

Cuffs occlude arteries & a bi-directional Doppler probe or arterial photoplethysmography (PPG) probe detects the blood flow

Pressure at the ankle < pressure at the arm = some stage of P.A.D.

Printer creates waveform printouts on adhesive-backed paper

Waveforms acquired with a Doppler probe or with pulse volume recording (PVR) using blood pressure cuffs meet reimbursement criteria

Product OverviewProduct Overview

Features of the Vantage ABI Convenient touch-screen to navigate the system. Displays patient data,

exam information, instructions and menu options.

A USB memory stick is used for exporting data to a personal computer.

Uses digital Fourier oscillometric (DFO) waveform analysis, which Summit Doppler co-invented with researchers from the Cleveland Clinic where the technology was clinically validated.

New technology is a significant improvement in ankle and pressure determination and P.A.D. assessment over traditional

forms of oscillometric ankle pressure measurement.

After the cuffs are wrapped and the patient rests, touch one button and the Vantage ABI completes the exam in just 3 minutes!

SummarySummary

Summit Doppler ABI Systems: the portable LifeDop 300 ABI and the full-featured Vista AVS.

Solutions for performing the ABI for the diagnosis of P.A.D.

P.A.D. is a very common disease that’s widely under-diagnosed and under-treated.

Both systems generate fast, waveform printouts required for Medicare and insurance reimbursement.

Using a Doppler to perform the ABI exam is the gold-standard for diagnosing P.A.D.

Quick ROI—pays for itself in as little as three weeks!
