Cardio Diagnostics CEO Meesha Dogan said: “We are honoured to receive this contract from Vizient, which will accelerate access to our novel heart disease tests that leverage AI and a precision medicine approach.” 

In April 2023, medical device manufacturer Cook Medical obtained a contract from Vizient to deliver endoscopy devices to the latter’s member healthcare facilities throughout the US.  

The contract covered products from several categories including biliary access (long wire and short wire), biopsy, cytology and polypectomy, extraction, dilation, drainage stenting, biliary/pancreatic therapy, stricture management and tissue management. 

Last month, Cardio Diagnostics announced the launch of a new integrated research facility in Iowa City, Iowa. The facility will house the company’s new research laboratory and fulfilment centre. Initial operations are expected to commence in Q4 2023, with full operations set to begin in Q1 2024.
