NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Dec 9, 2015) - Event Cardio Group, Inc. (OTCQB: ECGI), a medical device company, is pleased to announce that its Ambulatory Arrhythmia Monitoring System, NowCardio™, has successfully completed its stage 2 audit of compliance to Canadian Medical Devices Conformity Assessment System (CMDCAS). The audit was conducted by a recognized registrar, BSI Group, and is a significant milestone towards both Health Canada and FDA certification. NowCardio™ is on track to receive regulatory certification and approvals by Health Canada in Q1 of 2016, and by FDA early in Q2 of 2016.

On November 26 and 27, 2015, Contex International Technologies (Canada) Inc., the engineering firm engaged by Event Cardio Group, Inc., to develop its NowCardio® heart monitor, completed a Stage 2 Audit, last of a series of audits, conducted by the registrar BSI Group Canada Inc. No non-conformances were noted in the audit, and the Company anticipates that Contex will receive ISO 9001 and ISO 13485/CMDCAS Certificates in the coming weeks. These certificates are required to apply to Health Canada for certification of the NowCardio® System as a Class II Medical Device, and furthermore, to license manufacturing and distribution within Canada. In addition to obtaining the ISO/CMDCAS Certificates, Contex must also submit the NowCardio® device to an outside lab for regulatory testing. NowCardio® has already passed interim testing of development prototypes at the lab.

The Company expects that Contex will receive the ISO/CMDCAS Certificates by the end of the year at which time it will make the submission to Health Canada. The Company currently anticipates that it will receive the necessary approvals and be authorized to sell NowCardio® in Canada in early February 2016.
