Acarix, a leader in advanced acoustic-based cardiac diagnostics, today announces an advancement in the utilization of its CADScor® System within the Veterans Administration (VA) Healthcare network, the largest healthcare provider in the US. The Southeast Louisiana VA Healthcare System has reordered CADScor Patches in their Slidell and Baton Rouge locations to be used with the CADScor System for risk-stratification of symptomatic patients suspected of coronary artery disease (CAD) throughout various facilities within their system.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Southeast Louisiana VA Healthcare System was the first VA location to place orders for CADScor System and patches in February, with approval of the CADScor System into their Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) in August. Since integrating the CADScor System into their SOP, the Southeast Louisiana VA Team has also aligned their Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS) with the SOP to ensure all relevant symptomatic patients suspected of CAD undergo a CADScor System Test.<\/p>\n

In the past few months, the Acarix team has collaborated closely with the Southeast Louisiana VA Leadership Team, providing support to more than 100 Healthcare Professionals (HCPs) through various activities, including CADScor System in-servicing within their Cardiology group. Furthermore, the team has been actively engaged in monthly Primary Care meetings with the Chief of Cardiology, effectively developing awareness about the CADScor System.<\/p>\n

“With the SOP approval and alignment of the CPRS, along with comprehensive training for HCPs, we anticipate an increase in CADScor System utilization throughout the VA Louisiana system. The initial reorders from Slidell and Baton Rouge are just the beginning of a trend we expect to continue into 2024,” commented Fred Colen, Acting CEO of Acarix. “By providing a quick and easy non-invasive first-line diagnostic aid for assessing CAD risk, the CADScor System effectively streamlines the diagnostic process, enabling physicians to allocate resources more efficiently and elevate the overall standard of care for our nation’s veterans in Louisiana. Our efforts, in collaboration with VA leadership there, have laid the groundwork for potential widespread adoption of the CADScor System despite the challenges associated with changing clinical practices.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
