# Catheter-Free Cardiac Assessments Sensydia Funds CPS Through ACOUSTIC-1 for FDA Review By Adam Harrie | Written with AI assistance | Published 2026-10-14 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/catheter-free-cardiac-assessments References: [prnewswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/sensydia-secures-oversubscribed-funding-to-deliver-groundbreaking-cardiac-performance-system-to-the-office-hospital-and-clinic-302903405.html)  Sensydia is backing its 'Cardiac Performance System,' or CPS, with more than $6 million in new financing to advance the non-invasive heart-assessment device toward FDA review and market preparation. The device is designed for clinicians managing heart failure and pulmonary hypertension, providing pulmonary pressure readings in offices, clinics, and other care settings without threading a catheter into the heart. CPS reads [acoustic and electrical signals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-stethoscopes) and uses AI to convert them into cardiac-function data. In July 2026, Category III CPT code 1036T was introduced for [non-invasive hemodynamic exams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aipowered-cardiovascular-ultrasound-system) that combine passive signal capture, algorithmic review, and physician interpretation, the same structure CPS uses. The July 2026 CPT code and the $6 million round have moved CPS beyond a research tool toward a billable office workflow. FDA authorization would expand where pressure-based heart assessment can occur and reduce reliance on cath-lab access.
