Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview:
The Company incurred a net loss of $214,555 for the third quarter of 1995, as
compared with net income of $126,414 for the same period last year. The net
loss for the nine month period in 1995 was $1,566,899 compared to net income
of $585,836 for the same period in 1994. The loss for the nine month period
in 1995 included charges recorded in the first quarter totalling $550,000
pre-tax or $412,000 on an after tax basis, which were comprised of a $250,000
reserve for employee severance and organizational changes, a $200,000
write-down of research and development related inventory and a $100,000
increase in the bad debt reserve. Excluding the charges recorded in the first
quarter 1995, the nine month net loss would have been $1,154,899.

Equipment sales were $4,348,196 for the third quarter of 1995, a 2.7 percent
decrease from the $4,469,346 reported for the comparable quarter in 1994.
Service and supply revenues increased $139,621 or 12.4 percent over the third
quarter of 1994 due to increased supply sales and training revenues. Total
equipment sales for the nine month period in 1995 were $12,475,296 as
compared to $13,454,373 in 1994, this $979,077 decrease is due to less than
expected sales performance and to lower average selling prices.

Gross margin as a percentage of sales decreased to 46.5 percent in the third
quarter of 1995 from 48.3 percent for the third quarter of 1994. This
decrease in the third quarter gross margin percentage is primarily due to an
increase in manufacturing expenses over 1994 levels, lower average selling
prices and the impact of lower-than-expected sales volume relative to fixed
manufacturing expenses. Gross margins for the nine month period decreased to
44.4 percent from 48.9 percent due to the factors described above and the
$200,000 writedown of the value of research and development inventory
recorded in the first quarter of 1995.

Selling expenses of $1,911,548 in the third quarter of 1995 were $402,833 or
26.7 percent greater than the comparable period in 1994. This increase was
due to the addition of sales and marketing management, domestic and
international sales representatives and new business development as well as
investment in new market opportunities related to the June 1995 introduction
of the CPX Express-TM- System. Selling expenses of $5,493,828 for the nine
month period were $990,774 more than the comparable period due to the reasons
described above.


                                      (5)

<PAGE>


Administrative and general expenses of $517,311 increased $44,637 in the third
quarter of 1995 over the comparable period in 1994, primarily due to legal fees
related to the Company's lawsuit with SensorMedics Corporation. Nine month
expenditures in 1995 were $759,924 more than the comparable period in 1994 due
to the recording of a $250,000 reserve for employee severance and related costs
and an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts of $100,000 (both
recorded in the first quarter 1995) and legal fees related to the Company's
lawsuit with SensorMedics Corporation.

Research and development expenses of $441,499 were $85,196 less than the
comparable period in 1994 primarily due to a temporary decrease in staff and
reduced project expenses due to the completion and release of the CPX
Express-TM- System in June 1995. Expenses for the nine month period were
$1,543,502 compared to $1,441,116 in 1994, primarily due to increased staff and
project costs related to new product development.

Net interest (expense) income decreased from $5,086 of interest income in the
third quarter of 1994 to $38,276 of interest expense in 1995. This decrease was
due to the shift of having funds available for short-term investment in 1994 to
borrowing short-term funds under the available bank line of credit in the third
quarter of 1995. Interest expense for the nine month period in 1995 was $51,955
compared to interest income of $22,886 in 1994 due to the reasons described
above.

The Company recorded a $87,500 tax benefit in the third quarter due to the
ability to carryback the current quarter loss to offset prior year taxable
income. The Company's effective income tax rate was 36.3 percent in the third
quarter of 1994. The total tax benefit recorded for the nine month period in
1995 was $542,500 as compared to tax expense of $320,000 in 1994.

The Company recorded a loss of $214,555 for the third quarter of 1995 compared
to income of $126,414 for the third quarter of 1994. The decreased quarterly
earnings resulted primarily from the substantial sales shortfall, an increase in
operating expenses as the Company expanded it's sales and marketing organization
and legal costs related to the lawsuit with SensorMedics Corporation. The loss
for the nine month period in 1995 amounted to $1,566,899 compared to income of
$585,836 reported for the same period in 1994.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

As of September 30, 1995, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $114,897,
working capital of $9,855,495 and borrowing under the bank line of credit of
$1,550,000. The Company has $950,000 available to borrow under it's $2,500,000
bank line of credit. The Company believes that current working capital combined
with projected revenues and the existing bank line of credit will provide
sufficient working capital through 1995.

                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

    In April 1994, the Company filed a lawsuit in federal district court in
    Minnesota against its California competitor SensorMedics Corporation
    ('SensorMedics'). The complaint alleges that SensorMedics has infringed
    a patent of the Company, disparaged the Company's products, engaged in
    deceptive trades practices, and unfair competition, interfered with
    Company contractual relationships with customers and defamed the
    Company. The infringement claim relates to the Company's patent covering
    a cardiopulmonary exercise testing system providing real-time,
    'breath-by-breath' analysis of a person's exercise capacity. The
    complaint seeks unspecified damages and injunctive relief against
    SensorMedics. In June 1994, SensorMedics


                                      (6)

<PAGE>




    filed counterclaims against the Company alleging that the Company has
    infringed a patent of SensorMedics, disparaged SensorMedics' products,
    engaged in deceptive trade practices, and unfair competition, has
    attempted to monopolize the market, interfered with SensorMedics
    contractual relationships with it's customers and defamed SensorMedics.
    (The Company believes that its patent is valid, that it is not infringing
    any valid patent of SensorMedics and that the counterclaims made by
    SensorMedics are without merit.) The Company and SensorMedics have
    completed the discovery phase related to this lawsuit. By a summary
    judgement order dated August 28, 1995, the court decided as a matter of law
    that the Company was not infringing SensorMedics' patent. Although
    settlement discussions have been held between the parties, to date, no
    definitive settlement documents have been executed.
