Santa Monica, CA, Sept. 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioSig Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:BSGM) a medical device company developing a proprietary biomedical signal processing platform designed to address an unmet technology need for the $4.6 billion electrophysiology (EP) marketplace, today announced that shares of its common stock have begun officially trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market, under the ticker “BSGM”.

BioSig’s listing on the Nasdaq is the Company’s most recent operational achievement. In August 2018, the Company received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for their patented advanced signal acquisition and processing technology, PURE EP(tm) System. The non-invasive technology is a computerized system intended to enhance electrocardiographic and intracardiac signals for patients undergoing electrophysiology (EP) procedures in an EP laboratory for the treatments of arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat. The Company completed 13 pre-clinical studies at Mayo Clinic and Mount Sinai to date and received first units from its contract manufacturer, Minnetronix, in September 2018. BioSig recently made an announcement about their ongoing progress with effective physician engagement and continues to add experienced industry hires to its clinical and commercial teams.

“The Nasdaq stock exchange is home to many of the world’s most innovative medical technology and healthcare companies and is a natural fit for BioSig,” stated Mr. Kenneth Londoner, Founder, Chairman and CEO of BioSig Technologies.  “Our listing on the Nasdaq exchange is a milestone and reflects the significant progress we have made in strengthening our corporate governance and expanding our industry footprint.”

Analysts forecast the global market for EP devices will grow at a 10.6 percent compound annual growth rate to more than $8.5 billion by 2024*, making it one of the fastest growing medical device segments. In the United Stated alone, the number of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) and Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) arrhythmia ablations is forecast to grow at 11 percent from 2015 to 2020**.
