06 MEASURE THE DIFFERENCE. SMART. PRECISE. RELIABLE. EXPERT S OPINION Prof. Dr. Thomas Paul Director of the Department of Pediatric Cardiology and Intensive Care Medicine, Göttingen University Hospital The efficiency of the workflow shortens the examination and thus significantly reduces the strain on both the patient and the clinician. In pediatric cardiology we perform the complete range of diagnostic and catheter-based interventional procedures. In addition to this, we perform invasive diagnosis and treatment of every type of infantile cardiac arrhythmia. We have utilized the Schwarzer Cardiotek heart-catheter monitoring station since 2002 and throughout this time we have benefi ted from the company s many years of experience and the high quality of the product. In pediatrics we fi nd the precision of the equipment especially valuable.
07 SCHWARZER CARDIOTEK. SMART. PRECISE. RELIABLE. HEMODYNAMICS evoseries Precise recording, measurement and calculation Our high-end cath lab systems, equipped with comprehensive functions, meet all expectations for functional diagnostics in heart catheterization including a dedicated version for pediatrics. The evoseries offers both automatic and manual measurement capabilities of curve segments, which can either be measured simultaneously or individually. Pullback curve segments are automatically assigned. In addition, there is also the option of manual correction of measurement points. Hemodynamic gradient and ECG recordings are saved in the background and can always be recalled and evaluated (Full Disclosure File). The integrated patient archive ensures the availability all reports containing waveforms and patient data, while the functional redundancy within the dual-computer design provides increased security against malfunction (depending on the model). Standard Interfaces Schwarzer Cardiotek evoseries stands for optimal system integration. The functionalities can be integrated into all DICOM structures, independently of the manufacturer. Thus, all advantages of the evo system can be accessed from any clinical environment.

COMBINED SOLUTIONS HEMO-EP evoduo The combined system for hemodynamic and electrophysiological applications Effective use of your facilities Integration of hemodynamics and electrophysiology in a single workstation Unparalleled flexibility Combined benefits of both systems The evoduo platform combines two systems: the hemodynamic functionality of the evoseries and a modular extension to the EP-TRACER for electrophysiology. The evoduo is available in three model variants. Depending on your needs you can choose between the standard version, the model for superior requirements in adult cardiology or a version for pediatric cardiology. All three versions are available with 38, 70 or 102 intracardiac channels. EP-TRACER 102
10 MEASURE THE DIFFERENCE. CARDIOLOGY INFORMATION SYSTEM cardworks The cardiology information system for the cardiac cath lab Complete integration of findings and reports with the BQS data management system in the clinical standards workflow Out-of-the-box report generation, without additional user interaction Graphical documentation of indications and interventions in heart, coronary and peripheral arteries cardworks is a flexible information system that focuses on the work processes in the cardiac cath lab. Through its modular design, cardworks can be utilized for either single workstations or multiple networked measuring stations, with inputs from multiple user profiles in a diverse range of clinical settings. Integration with the hemodynamic measurement station and the connection via standard interfaces to the HIS and other sub-systems guarantees the immediate availability and consistent distribution of all the required information. Versatile add-on modules Our diverse range of add-on modules supports the user to create the most effi cient workfl ow. They enable: generation of detailed graphical documentation of indications and interventions in the coronary and peripheral arteries management of materials schedule planning automatic text generation (based on the recorded indications and fi ndings) statistical analysis of procedural and patient-relevant data, material use and staff productivity
11 SCHWARZER CARDIOTEK. SMART. PRECISE. RELIABLE. cardworks offers fully automated reporting along with a complete package of interfaces that provide a smooth, personalized workfl ow for each user. Detailed documentation Aside from collecting and maintaining all patient-related and procedural data required for documentation, billing and statistical analysis, cardworks automatically displays all hemodynamic measurements (such as pressures and oxygen saturations) on an interactive heart graphic, thus simplifying procedure monitoring. These features, combined with the integration of ICD10, OPS and BQS databases, allow for the automatic generation of a detailed report with just a few clicks. Comprehensive procedure history An intuitive Windows-based menu system allows all relevant events to be quickly documented. All the materials and medication used (including the amount of contrast medium used), the type of interventions performed and the time required, can all be easily documented with just a few clicks.

14 MEASURE THE DIFFERENCE. ADDITIONAL PRODUCTS For improved diagnostics EASI LEAD SYSTEM Single use electrodes In the cath lab, the significance of hemodynamic results depends highly on the quality of ECG signals. The EASI lead system has been clinically validated and can be used for ECG monitoring. By using a special algorithm and the appropriate positioning of only 5 electrodes, data for the 12 standard leads is collected. This concept is validated especially for interventional use and enables the user to monitor special chest wall leads without interfering with x-ray images. The adhesive electrodes are fi rmly attached to the patient and connected to the corresponding leads, reducing transmission resistances and increasing signal quality. The single use product must be replaced for each patient. FRACTIONAL FLOW RESERVE Evaluation without additional monitors and systems The optional integrated FFR measurement enables the assessment of flow reserve without additional monitors and systems. The Schwarzer Cardiotek evo measuring station allows the connection of all commonly used FFR systems. In some systems, the distal pressure values are transmitted wirelessly to the Schwarzer Cardiotek pre-amplifi er, thus increasing freedom of movement at the operating table. Furthermore, all hemodynamic measurements (including the FFR value) are integrated in a single system and documented in a single cardiac catheterization report. MULTI-PARAMETER MODULE FOR PATIENT MONITORING Philips IntelliVue X2 Multi-Parameter Module The module transmits the numeric values to the hemodynamic measuring station. Operation is possible at the measuring station in the control room and directly via the multi-parameter module in the examination room (the display is freely confi gurable). The monitor can also operate in battery mode for up to three hours in mobile use, which permits the secure and straightforward monitoring of patients before and after an examination in the heart catheter laboratory. The following parameters can be continuously monitored by the module, displayed on the hemodynamic monitors in the control room and examination room, and documented in the heart catheter report: Heart rate Temperature Oxygen saturation Non-invasive blood pressure (NiBP) Cardiac output with the thermodilution method Respiration CO 2 measurement in the main or side stream
