A description of the technological developments used for this research, and later for the introduction of patient monitoring, will be presented here.

"...the early days of E for M (it was started in 1950). The company essentially invented operating room monitoring, which later evolved to ICU, CCU, etc. They also build the first cath lab recorders. In their first few years they were called Instrument Laboratories -- so if you're looking for early history you might find it under that. A lot of the early cath work was done with Dr. Andre Cournand of Columbia University (who later received the Nobel Prize for Medicine for this)..." Charles Scheiner
