Alles aus der Welt der kardiovaskulären Medizin. Mit zwei Ausgaben jährlich richtet sich dieses Magazin mit Innovationen in der kardiologischen Diagnostik und Intervention an Ärzte und medizinisches Personal in Klinik und Praxis.
The cover story of our second issue highlights electrophysiology (EP): it discusses the role of the European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA), the growth of EP and the treatment of arrhythmic patients in Europe. Learn how Leipzig Heart Center uses the MediGuide™ Technology to significantly reduce radiation exposure for both patients and examiners in CRT implantation. Explore the benefits of remote monitoring of pacemaker patients using Siemens’ Soarian® Clinicals hospital information systems experienced by the Gävle Hospital in Sweden. But there is more in this issue of Heartbeat: find out how a private practice set up a routine 3T CMR service with MAGNETOM® Skyra and Cardiac Dot Engine, and how the emergency department (ED) of Mercy Medical Center could accommodate significant ED volume increases by introducing point-of-care high-sensitive Troponin-I testing with Stratus® CS Acute Care™ Diagnostic Systems. In addition, don’t miss reading the article on cardioncology – a new collaborative discipline at the intersection of cardiology and oncology. Enjoy reading this issue of Heartbeat!
