CathSource vs C3 Wave™

CathSource (from the creators of ECGsource) is an up-to-date medical reference devoted exclusively to cardiac catheterization and angiography. Developed by practicing Interventional Cardiologists for both specialists and trainees in the field of cardiovascular disease, CathSource offers the following content: * Searchable index of specialized topics including: Normal Coronary Anatomy Anomalous Coronary Arteries Coronary Artery Aneurysms Myocardial Bridging Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Plaque Rupture & Thrombus Standard Views of Angiography Left Ventriculography Coarctation of the Aorta Femoral Artery Access for Angiography Radial Artery Access for Angiography Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) Hemodynamics: Intracardiac Pressures Hemodynamics: Intracardiac Waveforms Hemodynamics: Cardiac Output Hemodynamics: Intracardiac Shunts Hemodynamics: Aortic Stenosis Hemodynamcis: Aortic Regurgitation Hemodynamics: Mitral Stenosis Hemodynamcis: Mitral Regurgitation Hemodynamcis: Constriction Hemodynamics: Restriction * Searchable database containing more than 30 videos (coronary angiograms, ventriculograms, and aortograms) of both common and rare findings in the cardiac catheterization lab * Searchable database of over 65 images including hemodynamic formulas, tables, and figures CathSource provides a detailed overview of important cardiac catheterization and angiography topics, incorporating educational images/videos as well as reviews of pertinent medical literature. CathSource is the ideal application to assist you in understanding and recognizing cardiovascular pathology in the catheterization lab.

The C3 Wave™ assists in the placement of PICC catheters by medical professionals. It can be used by itself in "demo mode" for training and demonstration purposes, and pairs with hardware components available from Medcomp® to be used in live medical procedures. When used in demo mode, the app produces ECG waveforms that simulate a human patient. A slider control allows manual adjustment of the ECG wave to show waveforms present during a real PICC placement procedure. Snapshot images can be taken of the ECG wave in its various shapes to document the procedure. When used in live procedures, the same screen output and controls are present, but the ECG waves are real instead of simulated. Once all desired snapshots are captured and a procedure is finished, the user may export captured data to a wireless printer, web-based EMR (Electronic Medical Records) system, or share snapshot images saved to the iPad's photo album.
