ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
         FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     OVERVIEW

     Since its inception in January 1990, Physiometrix has been engaged
primarily in the design and development and more recently the manufacture and
sale of noninvasive, advanced medical products.  The Company's products
incorporate proprietary materials and electronics technology and are used in
neurological monitoring applications. The Company's initial products are its 
e-Net headpiece and disposable HydroDot biosensors and custom electronics, which
are packaged as the HydroDot NeuroMonitoring System.  The Company is also
developing two additional neurological monitoring products, the Equinox EEG
System and the Patient State Analyzer.  The Company believes that the Patient
State Analyzer, Equinox EEG System and other potential products currently under
development will be subject to FDA clearance by 510(k) notification; however the
FDA may require the Company to submit a pre-market approval ("PMA") application
for such products.  The Company submitted a 510(k) application to the FDA for
the Equinox EEG System in June, 1996.  There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to obtain necessary 510(k) clearance or PMA application
approval to market the Patient State Analyzer or any other products on a timely
basis, if at all.

    Physiometrix has a limited history of operations and has experienced
significant operating losses since its inception.  As of June 30, 1996, the
Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $11.3 million.  The HydroDot
NeuroMonitoring System is currently the Company's principal commercial product
and is expected to account for most of the Company's revenue through 1997.

    The Company anticipates that its operating losses will continue for at
least the next few years as the Company continues to expend substantial
resources to expand marketing and sales activities, scale up of manufacturing
capabilities, increase research and development and support regulatory and
reimbursement approvals.  There can be no assurance that the Company will ever
achieve significant commercial revenues or profitability or that profitability,
if achieved, will be sustained.

    The Company anticipates that its results of operations will fluctuate on a
quarterly basis for the foreseeable future due to several factors, including
actions relating to regulatory and reimbursement matters, the extent to which
the Company's products gain market acceptance, introduction of alternative means
for neurophysiological monitoring and competition.  Results of operations will
also be affected by the progress of clinical trials and in-house development
activities, and the extent to which the Company establishes distribution
channels for its products domestically and internationally.

    This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
Results of Operations contains certain forward looking statements.  The 
Company's actual results of operations may differ materially from those 
anticipated by such forward looking statements.  Factors that may affect 
future results of operations include those described herein.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1996

     REVENUES

     Revenues were $78,732 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 which was
approximately the same as $75,951 for the three months ended June 30, 1995.

     GROSS MARGIN

     Gross margin was $(214,109) for the three months ended June 30, 1996 which
was approximately the same as $(224,298) for the three months ended June 30,
1995. 

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

     Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 4% to $363,646 for
the three months ended June 30, 1996 from $379,866 for the three months ended
June 30, 1995. This decrease is primarily the result of lower personnel costs
and facilities costs due to the relocation of the Company's operations from
California to Massachusetts in late 1994 and early 1995.

     RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES

     Research and development expenses consisting principally of salaries,
consulting fees and clinical trial expenses increased 106% to $237,366 for the
three months ended June 30, 1996 from $115,458 for the three months ended June
30, 1995.  This increase is primarily the result of ongoing development and
clinical evaluation for the Company's Patient State Analyzer, development of the
Equinox low cost EEG System and continued enhancements to and support for the
Company's existing products.

     INTEREST INCOME

     Interest income increased $144,466 to $167,515 for the three months ended
June 30, 1996, from $23,049 for the three months ended June 30, 1995 as a result
of higher cash balances from the Company's initial public offering.  Interest
expense increased $30,558 to $40,080 for the three months ended June 30, 1996
from $9,522 for the three months ended June 30, 1995.  This increase is the
result of additional notes payable and borrowings under a revolving line of
credit.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1996

     REVENUES

     Revenues increased 55% to $214,958 for the six months ended June 30, 1996
from $138,839 for the six months ended June 30, 1995.  This growth was primarily
the result of sales of the Company's NeuroLink product, which was introduced in
the fourth quarter of 1995.

     GROSS MARGIN

     Gross margin improved from $(521,839) for the six months ended June 30,
1995 to $(373,064) for the six months ended June 30, 1996.  This improvement was
primarily the result of a higher sales volume and NeuroLink product sales.  To
a lesser extent lower personnel costs contributed to the gross margin
improvement.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

     Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 15% to $694,867 for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 from $817,434 for the six months ended June
30, 1995.  This decrease is the result of lower personnel costs and facilities
costs due to the relocation of the Company's operations from California to
Massachusetts in late 1994 and early 1995.

     RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES

     Research and development expenses consisting principally of salaries,
consulting fees and clinical trial expenses increased 132% to $416,481 for the
six months ended June 30, 1996 from $179,310 for the six months ended June 30,
1995.  This increase is primarily the result of ongoing development and clinical
evaluation for the Company's Patient State Analyzer, development of the Equinox
low cost EEG System and continued enhancements to and support for the Company's
existing products.

     INTEREST INCOME

     Interest income increased $116,110 to $171,522 for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 from $55,412 for the six months ended June 30, 1995.  This
increase is the result of higher cash balances from the Company's initial public
offering.  Interest expense increased $28,030 to $47,949 for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 from $19,919 for the six months ended June 30, 1995.  This
increase is the result of additional notes payable and borrowings under a
revolving line of credit.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     As of June 30, 1996 the Company had $19,251,356 in cash and cash
equivalents as compared to $432,126 at December 31, 1995. On May 3, 1996, the
Company received net proceeds of $20,460,000 (prior to offering expenses)
relating to the initial public offering of 2,000,000 shares of common stock.
The Company expects to use the net proceeds to fund development activities and
expansion of marketing, sales and manufacturing activities for the Company's
HydroDot NeuroMonitoring System and other products.  The Company expects to use
the balance of the net proceeds for working capital, general and administrative
expenses and general corporate purposes.

     Cash used for operating activities was $1,213,933 for the six months ended
June 30, 1996.  The lower use of cash in 1996 as compared to $1,629,268 used
for operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 1995, was primarily
the result of a lower net loss and an increase in the accounts payable and
accrued expenses.  $20,630,614 in cash was provided by financing activities.
This was the result of the Company receiving $19,784,623 from its initial public
offering and $500,000 under its revolving credit agreement.

     In March 1996, the Company entered into a one year $500,000 revolving
credit agreement with a lending institution.  Under the terms of the credit
agreement, the Company may make borrowings based on 80% of eligible accounts
receivable and various percentages of most fixed assets and inventory.
Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at 12.5% and are
collateralized by a $500,000 certificate of deposit which allows full
utilization of the facility.

     Although the Company believes that the proceeds from the initial public
offering together with current cash balances and cash generated from future
sales of products will be sufficient to meet the Company's operating and capital
requirements at least through 1997, there can be no assurance that the Company
will not require additional financing within this time frame.  There can be no
assurance that additional financing, if required, will be available on
satisfactory terms if at all.  In addition, the Company may in the future seek
to raise additional funds through bank facilities, debt or equity offerings or
other sources of capital.  The Company's future liquidity and capital
requirements will depend on numerous factors, including progress of the
Company's clinical trials, actions relating to regulatory and reimbursement
matters, the costs and timing of expansion of marketing, sales, manufacturing
and product development activities, the extent to which the Company's products
gain market acceptance, and competitive developments.
