In mid-2003,
AES recognized that its market opportunities were expanding dramatically
with the introduction of its new patent pending technologies and the feedback

product performance. As a result of these opportunities, AES sought out
a partner that would strengthen its management team and provide additional
financial resources to fund the explosive growth that AES was and is
experiencing. In early 2004, AES partnered with
NorthStar
Growth Partners (NorthStar).
NorthStar establishes partnerships with technology startups, emerging and
middle-market companies, focusing its financial resources and business
development expertise to strengthen and grow the value of their partner
companies. NorthStar's philosophy is to become the "Strategic and

Hemodynamic
monitoring is used in patient diagnosis, e.g., to distinguish between
cardiogenic and septic shock, or to evaluate the patient's response to
therapeutic interventions. The technology is also used as a prognostic
indicator for patients with severe cardiac conditions, such as acute
myocardial infarction (AMI). Hemodynamic monitoring provides a more
complete picture of the patient's circulatory system and often reveals
previously unknown, potentially fatal conditions. The triangle represents a
relationship between blood pressure, cardiac output (Heart rate times Blood
Volume) and Systemic Vascular Resistance. A non-invasive method for
measuring (estimating) the volume flow of blood is performed and the
parameters to assess cardiac health can be evaluated.
NorthStar Growth Partners was chosen to
advance the technology of SORBA Medical Systems Inc. to either create
multiple license opportunities or sale of the company. |
