Signalife Receives FDA Clearance for OTC Non-Prescription Event Recorder Device
Date:11/26/2007

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Signalife, Inc. (Amex: SGN - News) has received FDA 510(k) clearance to market and sell - without prescription - its ambulatory event recorder throughout the United States. This device, which Signalife will market as the Fidelity 200 HeartLife Tempo Card, is a direct-to-consumer non-prescription flexible credit card- sized heart monitoring device which will be used as an early-detection device by patients who desire to independently monitor their condition. The HeartLife Tempo Card uses the award-winning amplification technology contained in Signalife's Fidelity 100 Heart Monitor. In operation, at the onset of an event that will be recorded, the patient will hold the event recorder to his/her chest, press the "record" button, and record up to a 45-second event. The event recorder will be capable of storing up to six, 45-second recordings. The patient will then either take the recorder to his or her physician for review, or transmit the data to a subscription-based 24-hour monitoring center where it can be immediately evaluated by a qualified ECG technician, cardiac nurse or cardiologist.

With the sensitivity of the amplification technology used in the Fidelity 200 HeartLife Tempo Card - developed by Signalife's Chief Technology Officer and renowned scientist Dr. Budimir Drakulic - the Company believes it will be able to allow patients to effectively monitor their hearts anytime, anyplace, without the necessity of a prescription or other physician intervention. This, in turn, will lead to additional care and may lead to earlier intervention and other preventative measures for cardiovascular disease - the most costly of all diseases nationwide with annual expenditures approaching $400,000,000 spent across the country.
