Our core ECG laboratory provides a centralised system for all our studies. High precision ECG acquisition in our clinic provides meaningful ECG analysis with a smaller sample size, making us the ideal choice for the integration of cardiac safety in FIH and MAD studies.
We are a leading publisher in cardiology and have publicly accessible credentials. We are proud of our integrity, our professional growth and experience in this field.
We undertake and analyse several cardiological assessments using state-of-the-art equipment to understand and explain abnormal ECG data obtained during a clinical study of a new chemical entity.
