CardieX (CDX) has made progress in launching its CONNEQT Companion app, after the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) classified it as a Medical Device Data System (MDDS).

The app will work in line with the company’s CONNEQT Pulse device, which is a dual blood pressure management system.

Once the platforms are connected, patients will be able to manage a suite of arterial diagnostics. It will also include health coaching, patient record sharing, and remove patient monitoring features for future clinical use.

The classification reduces risk for market entry of its other upcoming new devices, as there will be no requirement for a full separate submission to the FDA for the consumer companion app.

Subject to FDA-clearance of the CONNEQT Pulse, CardieX will be able to launch the app.

Shares were trading 14.5 per cent higher today at 35.5 cents each at 12:25 pm AEST.
