              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                 MARCH 31, 1996

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 nine-month period ending March 31,
1996 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 - EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares
outstanding.  Common stock equivalents are not included when their effect would
be antidilutive.  Earnings per share calculation for the three and nine months
periods ending March 31, 1995, takes into account 358,049 compensatory stock
options and warrants.  Using the treasury stock method these common stock
equivalents have the effect of increasing the number of shares used in the
computation for the three and nine months periods ending March 31, 1995, by
76,161.

NOTE C - INVENTORIES

The components of inventory consist of the following:

NOTE D - NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation"
("Statement 123"). Statement 123 is primarily a disclosure standard for the
Company because the Company will continue to account for employee stock options
under Accounting Principle Board Opinion No. 25.  The Company plans to adopt
Statement 123 effective July 1, 1996.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATION

Total consolidated revenues for the third quarter of fiscal year 1996 were
$1,174,000 compared to $5,355,000 for the prior year's quarter.  During the
quarter ended March 31, 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 $4,415,000, net of expenses.  JJMI was the
exclusive licensee under these patents pursuant to a royalty license agreement
entered into in 1987, which was terminated as of March 28,1995.  Royalty income
therefore decreased to $3,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 1996, compared to
$112,000 for the same period last year, as a result of the termination of the
above-mentioned license agreement.  Catheter product sales increased by 39% to
$1,147,000 from $826,000 for the prior year's quarter.  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 were zero for the quarter ended
March 31, 1996, compared to $224,000 for the same period last year.  Sales to
the newly appointed distributors increased to $620,000, or 103%, compared to
$306,000 for the prior year's quarter.  Sales to OEM customers increased to
$281,000 from $104,000 mainly as a result of a new distribution agreement with
Boston Scientific Corporation ("Boston Scientific"), to develop and manufacture
a range of Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters (PICC) for the interventional
radiology market.  Catheter sales to international distributors increased by
$66,000 or 39%.  Interest income increased to $25,000 from $ 1,000, as a result
of the Company's increased cash balances that resulted from the patent sale to
JJMI.  For the first nine months of fiscal 1996, total revenues were $2,702,000
compared to $6,779,000 for the prior year's period.

Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1996 were $669,000
compared to $905,000 in the prior year's quarter, and for the nine months they
were $1,513,000 compared to $1,525.000. This represents decreases of $236,000
for the quarter and $12,000 for the nine months, respectively.  The decreases
are primarily due to inventory adjustments of $414,000 in the prior year's
quarter.  Excluding the inventory adjustment, cost of revenues as a percentage
of product sales decreased from 59% to 58% for the third quarter of 1996, and
increased from 56% to 58% for the nine months period.

Selling expenses decreased by $358,000 for the quarter and by $278,000 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1996.  The decrease for both periods is mainly
attributable to expanded marketing activities such as product training programs,
sales brochures and no charge samples during the prior year's periods.  General
and administrative expenses decreased by $166,000 during the quarter and by
$228,000 for the nine months period, mainly as a result of increasing the
provision for doubtful accounts by $50,000 and higher legal expenses during the
1995 period.

Research and development expenses were $121,000 for the third quarter of fiscal
1996 compared to $154,000 for the same period last year.  For the nine months
period ended March 31, 1996 research and development expenses were $330,000 in
comparison with $362,000 in the same period last year.  Depreciation and
amortization expense decreased by $171,000 for the quarter and by $174,000 for
the nine months ended March 31, 1996, which was mainly due to the write-off in
the amount of $165,000 of the Company's repurchased licensing rights from a
foreign distributor during the third quarter of fiscal 1995.  Interest expense
decreased by $44,000 during the quarter and by $73,000 for the nine months
period due to lower debt balances.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 1996, the Company had working capital of $3.5 million and its
principal sources of liquidity consisted of $1.7 million in cash and cash
equivalents.  Net cash used by operating activities for the nine months ended
March 31, 1996, was $995,000, mainly as the result of the net loss of $387,000,
the increase in accounts and other receivables of $315,000 and the increase in
inventories of $371,000.  The inventory increase is mainly attributable to
component purchases for the production of new OEM products for Boston
Scientific.  With respect to investing activities, the Company made purchases of
property and equipment totaling $73,000.  In March 1996, the Company signed an
agreement with Pertrach Inc. ("Pertrach"), a private company in West Virginia,
for the purchase of its patents, trademarks and certain assets for the amount of
$60,000 and future annual royalties.  The Company has manufactured the
tracheostomy products for Pertrach for many years and will now be responsible
for the marketing of these products as well.  Financing activities used $43,000
as a result of payment of the note payable to Sims Deltec Inc., collection of a
note receivable from a stockholder and proceeds from sales of common stock from
the exercise of stock options and warrants.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation"
("Statement 123"). Statement 123 is primarily a disclosure standard for the
Company because the Company will continue to account for employee stock options
under Accounting Principle Board Opinion No. 25.  The Company plans to adopt
Statement 123 effective July 1, 1996.

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, $193,000
which was paid through March 31, 1996.
