VICTORIA, B.C., May 27, 1999 – CardioComm Solutions Inc. (VSE: CCG) (the “Company”, “CardioComm”) is pleased to announce a strategic alliance with Brentwood Medical Products. Under the agreement CardioComm will incorporate Brentwood's 12 lead analysis and R-R or beat to beat analysis algorithm into CardioComm's Global ECG Management System (GEMS). As well, CardioComm can offer Brentwood's The Valentine™ PC ECG, a portable electrocardiogram (ECG) device that acquires the standard 12 cardio-leads and can be managed by GEMS from any PC.
