To help physicians combat the alarming incidence of sudden
cardiac death (SCD), two GE-exclusive algorithms are emerging as
pow
erful cardiac risk stratification tools. Both provide additional
car
diac information – yet r
equir
e no additional time, protocols
or electrodes.
The Marquette T-Wave Alternans analysis program precisely
detects fluctuations in the ECG waveform, identifying an often
missed pattern v
ariation that can indicate SCD risk
. The pr
esence
of T-w
av
e alternans can help clinicians mak
e earlier tr
eatment
decisions, such as whether a defibrillator should be implanted.
And the Mar
quette Hear
t Rate T
urbulence analysis pr
ogram
measures and compares the heart rate before and after pre-
ventricular contractions. These comparisons are then used to
determine the status of a patient’s autonomic nervous system,
which is indicative of cardiac health – and thus, predictive for SCD.
Two breakthrough algorithms. Running simultaneously during
standar
d ambulator
y ECG testing. Added to an already compre-
hensive toolset of trusted Marquette Holter analysis programs:
• EK-Pro
™
Analysis
• Atrial Fibrillation Detection
• QT Interval Measurement
•
ST Segment Measurement
• Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
• Pacemaker Analysis
The r
esult is a wealth of detailed, accurate cardiac information.
For greater diagnostic confidence. And better decision support .
