The start-up company Corindus for several years has been developing a robotic-assist system for use in the cardiac cath lab. It not only navigates devices to target lesions, but also can be used to precisely guide, manipulate and deploy devices during interventional procedures. The system allows the operator to sit in a lead-shielded booth in the cath lab to perform procedures away from the table and outside of the radiation field. Operators work while sitting down, without lead aprons and with more precision than allowed with hand manipulation.

In 1991, a team of highly skilled engineers and clinicians from various disciplines began development of a new system for measuring blood pressure. Their goal was to develop a system that was non-invasive, as accurate as an indwelling catheter, measured continuously and did not require calibration. This team and their goal formed the nucleus for the company that is Medwave.
Medwave's team of engineers and clinicians began their task by researching all previous efforts to measure blood pressure non-invasively. One by one, each of these technologies was evaluated and rejected.
