TouchECG by Cardioline: ECG Acquisition and Management System

The TouchECG by Cardioline is a next-generation ECG system designed to meet the needs of healthcare professionals across a wide range of clinical settings. This system is specifically designed to work with Windows touchscreen tablets and laptops, making it particularly practical and intuitive to use. With its high-performance capabilities, it guarantees exceptional diagnostic accuracy while being extremely easy to use. Its portability and reliability make it an ideal solution for critical applications such as telemedicine and emergency situations, where every second counts and fast, precise monitoring is essential. The TouchECG allows for the simultaneous viewing of 12- or 15-lead ECG signals, providing a comprehensive real-time picture of cardiac activity, along with continuous rhythm strip acquisition for up to 30 minutes. This flexible, powerful, and compact solution is designed for healthcare professionals seeking a precise and reliable ECG monitoring system, regardless of the environment in which they work.

The HD+ acquisition unit is the central component of this system, offering a unique combination of lightweight design and high performance. Designed to maximize patient comfort, this unit minimizes any discomfort during the procedure while providing clinicians with exceptionally high-quality ECG recordings. By reducing noise and artifacts to a minimum, this system ensures highly accurate diagnoses. The TouchECG complies with the most stringent international standards, including AAMI and AHA, ensuring maximum reliability and safety for medical use.

With its advanced features, the TouchECG positions itself as a leading diagnostic tool. It allows for the simultaneous display of 12- or 15-lead ECG signals, giving clinicians a comprehensive overview of the patient's cardiac activity, enabling a thorough and rapid assessment. Additionally, the continuous real-time rhythm strip acquisition for up to 30 minutes makes long-term monitoring possible, ideal for detecting subtle or intermittent cardiac abnormalities. The system is also equipped with pacemaker detection, using hardware recognition technology combined with a sophisticated digital convolution filter that processes signals for greater precision. The TouchECG also includes several fully digital diagnostic filters, such as adaptive AC filters designed to eliminate electrical interference, as well as muscle filters that reduce movement-related artifacts, ensuring clean and reliable data for clinicians.

The TouchECG’s low power consumption is a major advantage, allowing the HD+ acquisition unit to operate for more than 10 hours of continuous use, equating to more than 500 ECGs on a single charge. This operational longevity makes it particularly suited for mobile clinics, emergency services, or healthcare environments where access to electricity may be limited or intermittent. The portability and autonomy of the TouchECG ensure it can be used reliably and continuously, even in demanding environments.

The TouchECG integrates seamlessly into modern healthcare infrastructures with its robust data management and integration capabilities. It is fully compatible with hospital information systems (HIS) and picture archiving and communication systems (PACS), thanks to a bidirectional DICOM data flow (available as an option). This integration greatly simplifies clinicians’ workflows, allowing them to transfer, store, and manage ECG data smoothly and securely within hospital systems. Additionally, the system natively integrates with ECGWebApp, an intuitive web-based platform for ECG management, offering powerful tools for editing, storage, and report generation. With this compatibility, healthcare professionals can access critical information remotely, streamlining decision-making and analysis processes.

The TouchECG is also an ideal solution for telemedicine, thanks to its Bluetooth or USB connectivity, allowing healthcare professionals to capture, interpret, and transfer ECG data with ease, regardless of location. This flexibility in connectivity is essential to ensure effective cardiac monitoring in remote or mobile environments. This innovative system is truly designed to adapt to the needs of modern healthcare professionals, providing exceptional performance, total reliability, and uncompromised ease of use.
