Catheterization Lab, or Cath Lab, in short, is one of the most vital diagnostic imaging equipment in the medical sector. Scanning through the chambers of the heart and arteries, it proves to be a life-saver against cardiovascular diseases. Modern Cath Labs require modern equipment. One such piece of equipment that facilitates Cathlab reporting software to store reports is Clinical Database.

Background TAVI is associated with CA that commonly necessitate a permanent pacemaker. Predictors of CA are well established among patients with tricuspid aortic valves but not in those with BAV.

Automated external defibrillators (AEDs) and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) are used to treat life-threatening arrhythmias. AEDs and ICDs use shock advice algorithms to classify ECG tracings as shockable or non-shockable rhythms in clinical practice. Machine learning algorithms have recently been assessed for shock decision classification with increasing accuracy.
