Section 179 Deduction and Bonus Depreciation - 2014 Update
In 2014 the section 179 deduction, which allows partial expense of equipment and software purchases in a calendar year, has dropped to
$25,000.00. Prior to 2014, Bonus Depreciation allowed for immediate depreciation of 50% of the cost of equipment. It was allowed to
expire on December 31, 2013. Now the maximum
amount of equipment that can be purchased before the deduction begins to be
phased out is $200,000.00 (the deduction will be completely phased out once purchases exceed $225,000).
Off-the-shelf computer software placed in service during the tax year is qualifying property for purposes of the Section 179 Deduction.
This is software available for purchase by the general public, subject to a nonexclusive license and has not been substantially modified

Heart Disease Predictor in Women
A
recent article collaboration between WebMD and Nasiff indicates that a woman's resting pulse rate is a good predictor of her heart attack risk. Although heart disease was primarily seen in men, recent studies show that the disease is rising in women.

Why Stress Testing?
A stress test can be used to test for heart disease. Stress tests are tests performed by a doctor and/or trained technician to determine the amount of stress that your heart can manage before developing either an abnormal rhythm or evidence of ischemia (not enough blood flow to heart muscle). The most commonly performed stress test is the exercise stress test.
What is an Exercise Stress test?
The exercise stress test - also called a stress test, exercise elecrocardiogram, treadmill test, graded exercise test, or stress ECG - is used to provide information about how the heart responds to exertion. It usually involves walking on a treadmill or pedaling a stationary bike at increasing levels of difficulty, while your electrocardiogram heart rate, and blood pressure are monitored.
Why Do I Need a Stress Test?
Your doctor uses the stress test to:
- Determine if there is adequate blood flow to your heart during increasing levels of activity.
- Evaluate the effectiveness of your heart medications to control angina and ischemia.
- Determine the likelihood of having coronary heart disease and the need for further evaluation.
- Check the effectiveness of procedures done to improve blood flow within the heart vessels in people with coronary heart disease.
- Identify abnormal heart rhythms.
- Help you develop a safe exercise program.
What Are the Types of Stress Tests?
Stress tests come in many forms, including:
Treadmill Stress Test: As long as you can walk and maintain a normal ECG, this is typically the first stress test performed. You walk on a treadmill while being monitored to see how far you walk and if you develop chest pains or changes in your ECG that suggest that your heart is not getting enough blood.
Dobutamine or Adenosine Stress Test: This test is used for people who are unable to exercise. A drug is given to make the heart respond as though the person were exercising.
Stress Echocardiogram: A graphic outline of the heart's movement. A stress echo can accurately visualize the motion of the heart's walls and pumping action when the heart is stressed; it may reveal a lack of blood flow that isn't always apparent on other heart tests.
Nuclear Stress Test: This test helps to determine which parts of the heart are healthy or unhealthy. A small amount of radioactive substance is injected into the patient. Then the doctor uses a special camera to identify the rays emitted from the substance within the body both at rest and after exercise. This detects areas of the heart with a decreased blood supply.

According to the American Society of Anesthesiologists, continual monitoring for the presence of expired carbon dioxide is standard for every patient receiving anesthesia.
The Respsense Monitor offers MedAir EtCO2 technology for continuous long-term monitoring. It is simple and easy-to-use for EtCO2 spot-checks as well as ET-tube placement verification. Portable, accurate, and cost-effective, RespSense is perfect for emergency services and ambulance use - or in clinical settings where fast, easy EtCO2 monitoring is required.
Nonin Medical's LifeSense multi-parameter monitor provides numeric EtCO2 and SpO2 values in addition to a continuous visual waveform — making it ideal for spot checks or continuous monitoring. Equipped with Nonin Medical's proven motion and low perfusion tolerant PureSAT SpO2 technology, and Medair EtCO2 technology, LifeSense provides accurate EtCO2 data on the first breath.
Least Expensive Vital Signs (EKG, NIBP, SpO2, CO2)
Designed with emergency and operating room medical responders in mind, the VI-8410P patient monitor provides the efficient and fast-acting response needed for medical emergencies. Minimum ECG waveform and HR distortions during electrosurgical cutting and ablation, and total protection from electrosurgical interference prevent technical interference.
Welch Allyn Vital Signs (EKG, NIBP, SpO2, CO2)
Features a bright, full-color touchscreen display for continuous vital signs monitoring in hospital environments, during conscious sedation, and pre- and post-operative care.
Revolutionary New 12-Lead ECG/EKG Device Works Wirelessly With Any Android Cell Phone or Tablet
CardioCard Mobile is available exclusively through Medical Device Depot
Nasiff Associates announces the release of the first 12-lead EKG machine available on a tablet or smartphone. The CardioCard Mobile is a wireless 12 lead EKG machine with interpretation. The CardioCard Mobile is the first ECG machine with the ability to run a 12-lead wireless ECG test directly on Android tablets and smartphones, turning the portable device into a fully-functioning electrocardiogram machine. Now you can provide expert ECG analysis to patients in the doctor's office or halfway across the world.
After performing an ECG, the CardioCard Management System performs further analysis and the ability to print reports.
EMR connectivity assists with wireless record management, reducing errors and allowing immediate remote reviews. A PDF output option ensures a universally compliant format for storing and exchanging ECG data. Gain the combined power of advanced ECG technology with the versatility to store and send data.
CardioCard Products Now EMR Compatible!
EMR integration now works with
Nasiff products through the Cardio Universal EMR Interface! Acquire patient ECG in a Nasiff device such as the CardioCard. Then over read the report on a computer, add comments, sign and submit electronically.
In addition to EMR submission, Nasiff ECG reports can be viewed in several electronic programs including Amazing Charts, Nextgen, and eClinicalWorks.
New Capnography Sedation Standards
Capnography, which graphically monitors carbon dioxide concentration and measures ventilation and respiration, is utilized in operating rooms, intensive care units and other hospital areas where patients are under anesthesia or receiving sedation. This device sees greater use because it lets providers know that a patient is breathing effectively.
