About Vasomedical, Inc. and EECP® Therapy Vasomedical, Inc. develops, manufactures and markets EECP® therapy systems to deliver its proprietary form of enhanced external counterpulsation therapy. EECP® therapy is a noninvasive, outpatient therapy used in the treatment of ischemic cardiovascular diseases, currently used to manage chronic stable angina and heart failure. The therapy increases blood flow and oxygen supply to the heart muscle and other organs and decreases the heart's workload and need for oxygen. Function of the endothelium, the inner lining of blood vessels throughout the body, is also improved, lessening resistance to blood flow. These actions reduce or eliminate symptoms of angina and heart failure, and improve exercise performance and quality of life for thousands of people worldwide.
