- AltiX AI.i edition of Mac-Lab, CardioLab and ComboLab can
enhance efficiency and precision care for multiple types of cardiac
procedures
GE HealthCare (Nasdaq: GEHC) today announced the launch of the
AltiX AI.i edition of Mac-Lab™, CardioLab™ and ComboLab™. The AltiX
AI.i editions are designed to improve the user experience,
elevating workflow in the cardiac catheterization (cath) lab and
supporting even the most complex electrophysiology (EP) procedures.
These latest editions offer new features that can streamline
workflow and enhance interoperability, while upholding strong
cybersecurity standards.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has nearly doubled over the past
three decades, affecting more than 500 million people worldwide.
During this period, both deaths and disabilities due to CVD have
been on the rise globally.1 As cardiac cases continue to rise,
there is an urgent need for tools that improve the efficiency of
cardiac cath and EP procedures. Efficient diagnosis and therapy are
key elements of addressing the growing demand for care.
“AltiX AI.i is built on more than two decades of experience,
leadership and innovation in invasive cardiology to enhance cath
labs and EP procedures and empower clinicians to deliver the best
possible outcomes,” said Jyoti Gera, CEO, CardioVascular &
Interventional Solutions, GE HealthCare. “By automating routine
tasks and streamlining workflow, AltiX AI.i allows clinicians to
focus on what truly matters – providing exceptional patient
care.”
Mac-Lab for cardiac catheterization
The AltiX AI.i edition of Mac-Lab recording system combines
functionality with workflow optimization. Clinicians can adopt this
solution to elevate the cath lab user experience. The integration
of the diastolic pressure ratio (dPR) algorithm allows users to
easily perform this measurement, and builds on its ability to
capture diastolic hyperemia-free ratio (DFR) measurements. These
measurements are used to assess the severity of coronary artery
disease. Mac-Lab provides optional Cath Lab Command Center access
with a large display, advanced video and layouts, and customized
documentation tools for a better user experience.
CardioLab for EP procedures
For EP procedures, the AltiX AI.i edition of CardioLab offers
improved signal quality for visualization of physiological signals
using the Prucka™ 3 digital amplifier. Prucka 3 is a solution that
reduces environmental noise, maintains high signal fidelity and
provides new signal-filtering capabilities for more advanced
evaluations.2 The latest CardioLab edition showcases GE
HealthCare’s collaboration with Volta Medical, Volta Interface,
which utilizes PruckaStream to share real-time data to inform its
Volta AF-Xplorer™ decision support system. The feature is designed
to support clinicians with real-time assessments using artificial
intelligence (AI) to automatically assess areas believed to
initiate or maintain atrial fibrillation drivers. For an optimal
visual experience, users can also harness the EP Command
Center.
ComboLab for a comprehensive solution
ComboLab seamlessly integrates EP and hemodynamic recording into
a single system, offering versatile functionality for both cath lab
procedures and EP exams. ComboLab merges the best of Mac-Lab and
CardioLab to give clinicians a comprehensive solution to manage
various cardiac procedures in one location. Its familiar interface
and workflow ease the learning curve, and its capability to
document and export diagnostic data helps capture more information
at the point of care.
"The introduction of AltiX AI.i reinforces our commitment to
advancing cardiac care. These improved solutions are designed to
enhance diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities, which are crucial
for diagnosing and treating various heart conditions," said Arnaud
Marie, General Manager, Interventional Solutions, GE HealthCare.
"This launch is an important step in our ongoing mission to equip
healthcare providers with interventional solutions that evolve
alongside their needs."
In recognition of its innovation and leadership, GE HealthCare
was recently honored by Frost & Sullivan as the 2024 Company of
the Year in the Global Next-Generation EP Labs Industry. This
prestigious award highlights GE HealthCare's commitment to growth
and excellence in the field.
GE HealthCare will showcase the AltiX AI.i edition of Mac-Lab,
CardioLab and ComboLab at the European Heart Rhythm Association
(EHRA) 2025 annual congress taking place on March 30 - April 1 in
Vienna, Austria and Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) 2025 annual meeting
on April 24 - April 27 in San Diego. AltiX AI.i is available for
order in the United States and will launch in global markets later
this year. * Consult with your GE HealthCare sales representative
