- Company’s innovative, integrated imaging systems, devices,
software, informatics and services support greater efficiency,
enabling high-quality care for a growing volume of complex cardiac
patients
- Early detection, accurate diagnosis, precise treatment and easy
follow-up are enabled by data-driven, streamlined workflows
Amsterdam, the Netherlands – Royal Philips
(NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHIA), a global leader in health technology, today
announced the launch of its digital experience during the virtual
European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 2021 Congress, taking place
August 27-30, during which it will showcase its latest suite of
solutions to help improve outcomes for patients with cardiovascular
disease by enabling quick, confident diagnoses, and efficient,
effective treatments. During the congress, Philips will demonstrate
its continued leadership in cardiology across its integrated
portfolio of solutions throughout the entire cardiac care journey,
from early detection, diagnosis and treatment, to long-term
follow-up.
Cardiovascular disease has become the number one healthcare
challenge globally and is one of the leading causes of death
worldwide [1]. The costs associated with cardiovascular diseases
are rising significantly, with an expected growth in cost of 101%
by 2035 [2]. The demands on cardiology departments are higher than
ever before, forcing clinicians to balance the delivery of
high-quality care for a growing volume of complex patients, while
dealing with the pressures to improve departmental efficiency at
the same time. Definitive diagnostics, innovative procedures and
personalized patient management are essential to help address these
most challenging demands.
“From emergency care to diagnosis and treatment, to care into
the home, cardiac care teams need the right information and support
available at their fingertips across the entire cardiac patient
journey,” said Bert van Meurs, Chief Business Leader of Image
Guided Therapy at Philips. “Philips is uniquely positioned to
integrate imaging, devices, software, informatics and services at
each point in a cardiac patient’s journey to help deliver results
now, while positioning for future success. At this year’s ESC
virtual congress, we continue our longstanding leadership in
cardiology, as we demonstrate the latest smart solutions to help
improve the precision diagnosis and effective treatment for
patients in cardiac care, driving better outcomes and lower cost
while improving the patient and staff experience.”
Philips cardiology experience at the Virtual ESC 2021
CongressVisitors to the Philips virtual experience during
ESC will see how Philips’ solutions help strengthen clinical
confidence with robust data and advanced technologies to give
insight to provide the right care at the right time, improving
outcomes for even the most complex patients. Building efficiency
throughout the care pathway, Philips is streamlining communication
between devices and systems to identify and address operational
improvements to optimize resources and help reduce costs. By
improving cardiac care experiences with user-friendly tools and
streamlined workflows, Philips is helping relieve pain points for
staff and enhancing comfort for patients.
Technology highlights in diagnostic and treatment solutions at
this year’s virtual ESC congress include:
- Philips Spectral CT 7500 for advanced cardiac
imaging. The new Philips Spectral CT 7500, designed to
support diagnosis, builds on Philips’s strong reputation in cardiac
imaging by delivering fast cardiac scans with excellent coronary
vessel visualization, and now layers of spectral information for
every exam. The spectral detector allows the Spectral CT 7500 to be
the only system that will acquire spectral cardiac data in the same
time and place for all patients, from pediatrics to bariatrics.
This latest intelligent system has demonstrated a 34% reduction in
time to diagnosis [3], a 25% reduction in repeat scans and a 30%
reduction in follow-up scans [4] compared to conventional CT. The
time-saving spectral workflow is fully integrated, enabling
spectral chest scans. Intelligent workflows of Philips IntelliSpace
Portal simplify advanced vessel analysis, comprehensive cardiac
assessment, lung nodule assessment, and transcatheter aortic valve
implantation (TAVI) to expand cardiac and ED trauma
capabilities.
- New innovations in ultrasound enhance clinical
efficiency and diagnostic confidence. Philips’ new echo
imaging, quantification, and tele-health technologies help improve
clinical confidence, automate repetitive tasks, and remotely and
securely connect clinicians and patients. Philips brings together
the EPIQ CVx and Affiniti CVx ultrasound platforms, TOMTEC advanced
analysis, Collaboration Live remote decision support and Philips
multi-modality image and information management solutions
(IntelliSpace Cardiovascular) in an end-to-end workflow, for a
fully integrated experience in echocardiography.
- Improved workflow and patient focus in image guided
procedures. Philips will demonstrate the integration of
its Interventional Hemodynamic System and market-leading
portable Patient Monitor IntelliVue X3, providing advanced
hemodynamic (blood flow) measurements at the tableside in the cath
lab and continuous monitoring of key vital signs throughout the
patient journey [5]. The integration provides the opportunity for
monitoring during image-guided procedures on the Philips Image
Guided Therapy System – Azurion, improving workflow with
comprehensive patient records that support timely clinical
decision-making during interventional cardiology procedures and
beyond.
- Cardiology informatics solutions drive actionable
insights to enhance cardiology care. Philips
Cardiovascular Informatics solution provides a consistent
end-to-end intuitive workflow for easy access to a patient’s
cardiovascular pathway. By connecting and integrating disparate
clinical systems across the enterprise, the cardiology care team
can make fast clinical decisions based on the data when and where
it is needed. Philips cardiology informatics solutions, smart
intelligent algorithms and predictive analytics work seamlessly to
help optimize patient throughput.
Advanced cardiac monitoring from the hospital into the
homePhilips cardiac care solutions and BioTelemetry’s
leading remote cardiac patient monitoring have transformed
the cardiac care pathway. Now, individuals with complex
co-morbidities can emerge from a cardiac event or procedure to live
independently with the confidence of 24/7 clinical oversight with
advanced cardiac monitoring including monitoring of wearables and
implantable devices for a complete end-to-end solution across acute
and non-acute settings, from the hospital into the home.
Philips hosted webinars and symposia sessions during ESC
2021ESC delegates can join Dr. Roberto Lang of the
University of Chicago Medicine, along with Dr. Pepe Zamorano of the
University Hospital Ramón y Cajal, Madrid, Spain and Dr. Eric
Saloux with Coen University Hospital, France during an Ultrasound
Satellite Symposia session on August 28 at 8:00AM CET, as they
present results on new imaging technologies under
investigation. ESC attendees can also join Dr. Tim Leiner,
Professor of Radiology at Utrecht University Medical Center in the
Netherlands, who will share the latest results and advantages of
cardiovascular imaging with the next generation Spectral CT
7500.
On August 27 at 10:00AM CET, Dr. Borja Ibáñez, Director of
Clinical Research of the National Center Cardiovascular Research
(CNIC) in Spain will also be presenting results from ultra-fast
cardiac MR scanning, reducing MRI evaluation of the heart to a few
minutes. Visit the Philips ESC Engagement Hub for the full list of
