C3 Wave™ vs CVR Calc

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.

CVRCalc was designed by clinicians, for clinicians — and is the tool for healthcare professionals who work in or perform Vascular Access and Infusion Therapy roles and want to monitor accurate catheter to vessel ratios. It is designed to calculate the area consumed within the intravascular space used by the catheter. The device can be used to calculate the area for both venous and arterial devices if preferred. This simple tool allows clinicians to make quick area-based calculations during the patient assessment process, along with using ultrasound to accurately measure the vessel size prior to the insertion of an intravascular device. It covers both peripheral intravenous devices (in both Gauge and French sizes) as well as central venous access devices (in French size only).
