             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


                               DECEMBER 31, 1995

NOTE A - BASIS OF PREPARATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of
Regulation S-B.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included.  Operating results for the six-month period ending December 31,
1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ended June 30, 1996.  For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB.

NOTE B - LOSS PER SHARE

Loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares
outstanding.  Common stock equivalents were not included because their effect
would be antidilutive.

NOTE C - INVENTORIES

The components of inventory consist of the following:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Total consolidated revenues for the second quarter of fiscal year 1996 increased
20% to $856,000 from $712,000 for the prior year's quarter.  In March of 1995,
the Company sold five of its patents related to stickless needle technology to
Johnson & Johnson Medical, Inc. ("JJMI"), the corporate successor to Critikon,
for $4.7 million.  JJMI was the exclusive licensee under these patents pursuant
to a royalty license agreement entered into in 1987.  Royalty income from other
sources therefore decreased to $3,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 1996, as
compared to $125,000 for the same period last year, as a result of the
termination of the above-mentioned license agreement.  The Company's catheter
products generated revenues of $827,000, as compared to $586,000 for the prior
year's quarter, an increase of 41%.  In 1994, the Company modified its agreement
with Pharmacia Deltec Inc. ("Pharmacia") from an exclusive to a non-exclusive
distributor relationship and established a network of specialty distributors.
Sales to Pharmacia decreased 80% to $30,000 during the quarter ended December
31, 1995, compared to $150,000 for the same period last year. Sales to the newly
appointed distributors increased to $431,000, or 61%, compared to $268,000 for
the prior year's quarter.  Sales to OEM customers were $162,000 as compared to
$88,000 for the prior year's quarter, an increase of 84%.  Catheter sales to
international distributors increased by $132,000 or 236%, partially as a result
of a backorder to a distributor being shipped in the second quarter of fiscal
1996.  Interest income increased to $26,000 during the quarter ended December
31, 1995 from $1,000 for the same period last year, as a result of the Company's
increased cash balances that resulted from the patent sale to JJMI.  For the
first six months of fiscal 1996, total revenues increased over last year's
period by 20% to $1,528,000.

Cost of revenues as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended
December 31, 1995 increased from 42% to 58%.  For the first six months of fiscal
1996, cost of revenues were 55% as compared to 44% in the first six months of
fiscal 1995.  The increase is mainly attributable to no royalty income from
Critikon in fiscal year 1996.

Selling expenses increased by $33,000 for the quarter and by $80,000 for the six
months ended December 31, 1995. The increase for both periods is mainly
attributable to increased marketing efforts such as extensive product training
programs to support the Company's distributor network. General and
administrative expenses decreased by $21,000 for the quarter and by $62,000 for
the six months period which was mainly due to lower legal expenses.  Research
and development expenses decreased by $2,000 for the second quarter of fiscal
1996 and increased by $1,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1996.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $1,000 for the quarter and by
$2,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1995.  Interest expense decreased
from $27,000 to $3,000 during the quarter and decreased from $42,000 to $13,000
for the six months period due to lower debt balances.

On November 6, 1995, the Company repaid the note payable to Sims Deltec, Inc.
("SIMS"), formerly known as Pharmacia Deltec Inc.  Pursuant to an agreement
between the Company and Sims, Sims accepted $400,000 as full and final payment
for the note payable of $481,250 plus accrued interest.

The settlement of this debt including accrued interest is reflected in the
Company's income statement  as forgiveness of debt in the amount of $123,000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At December 31, 1995, the Company had working capital of $3.6 million and its
principal sources of liquidity consisted of $2.0 million in cash and cash
equivalents.  Net cash used by operating activities for the six months ended
December 31, 1995, was $740,000, mainly as the result of the net loss of
$305,000, the increase in accounts and other receivables of $157,000 and the
increase in inventories of $253,000.  The inventory increase is mainly
attributable to component purchases for the production of a new OEM product to
be shipped to Boston Scientific Corporation in the third quarter of fiscal year
1996.  With respect to investing activities, the Company made purchases of
property and equipment totaling $36,000.  Financing activities used $89,000 as a
result of payment of the note payable to SIMS, collection of a note receivable
from a stockholder and proceeds from sales of common stock from the exercise of
stock options and warrants.

The Company has no long-term commitments other than an annual lease obligation
of between $130,000 and $151,000 for its facilities through 1998, a minimum
annual royalty of $60,000 for a proprietary polymer material and consulting fees
of $396,000 payable to National Contracts Inc. over a two-year period, $147,000
which was paid through December 31, 1995.
