Carestream Obtains FDA Clearance for Diagnostic Reading of ECG Waveforms on Mobile Tablets Using Vue Motion Viewer
Carestream has obtained FDA Clearance for diagnostic reading of ECG
waveforms on desktop displays and mobile tablets using its Vue
Motion universal viewer. ER physicians, cardiologists and other
clinicians can quickly and easily view ECG exams to treat patients with
STEMI (ST segment elevation myocardial infarction) as well as other
heart conditions and illnesses. This capability is also available as an
optional module in Carestream's
Vue PACS Client.

"Patients suffering from chest pain can face death or disability if
their condition is not assessed and treated immediately," said Ron
Muscosky, Carestream's Worldwide Product Line Manager for Healthcare
Information Solutions. "Equipping ER physicians, cardiologsts or other
specialists with the ability to view ECG waveforms from virtually
anywhere in seconds delivers valuable diagnostic information that can
enhance patient care. This is especially important for a STEMI case,
which is a severe and deadly type of heart attack that is identified by
a specific ECG pattern."
The new capabilities allow physicians to simultaneously view current and
prior ECGs using tools that include pan, zoom, line measurement,
caliper, and gain and speed adjustments.
Carestream's zero footprint Vue Motion viewer is also FDA approved for
diagnostic viewing of imaging exams on approved mobile devices. It
equips clinicians with "one click" access to reports that contain
embedded hyperlinks and bookmarks for quick and easy viewing of
anatomical regions of interest. In addition, Vue Motion enables data
sharing so remote physicians and specialists can conveniently access
3D/MPR images and non-DICOM data such as videos.
