The VDI monitor is the result of close long-term cooperation of engineers, doctors, scientists, and private companies.
The VDI team includes:
A group from the Institute of Scientific Instruments, the Czech Academy of Sciences, Brno. This group consists exclusively of engineers from the fields of electrical engineering, computer technology, and SW engineering. This group designed and implemented VDI technology.
Two groups of cardiologists and biomedical engineers from St. Anne’s University Hospital Brno, and University Hospital Kralovske Vinohrady, Prague, Czech Republic. Both hospitals played a key role. It started with initial experiments full of uncertainty about what is measured, and it ended with routine during implantation.
Frits Prinzen from Cardiovascular Research Institute Maastricht is an excellent scientist whose advice, ideas, and interpretations have helped direct VDI towards a high-value clinical device.
The VDI monitor is the result of a joint project with Cardion company (Brno, Czech Republic) and European Operational Program Enterprise and Innovation for Competitiveness. Its support allowed us to finance the development of VDI.
