Diseases of the cardiovascular system are among the most common causes of death. People with high blood pressure, diabetes or high blood fat levels are at increased risk. Biomarkers in the blood can provide additional information for risk assessment, but evaluation often involves expensive laboratory analysis.

When the devices will be operational was not mentioned.
