Quinton TM55/TM65

Did you know?Q-Stress supports a full range of ergometers to meet yourclinical requirements.

Our heavy duty treadmills have set thestandard for dependability for more thanthree decades.• The quiet Ultradrive ensures a slow and safe start and providesexceptionally smooth operation and accuracy, even at slow speeds.

• The TM55/TM65 promotes patient confidence and security.They meet major safety and regulatory requirements worldwide.

• Because there are very few moving parts, our treadmills areeasy to maintain and boast minimal downtime.

Q-STRESS CARDIACSTRESS TESTING SYSTEM

The Quinton® Q-Stress® has long been associatedwith dependability, accuracy and superiorperformance. Our latest solution continuesto build upon that solid reputation, addingmeaningful innovations to meet the challengesof today’s clinical environment. Whether you’rea single or multi-physician practice, cardiologyoffice or hospital department, there is a Q-Stresssystem to support your testing demands.

Our deep understanding of the stress testenvironment is demonstrated by an exceptionaluser interface that complements the robustperformance of our proven VERITAS™ technology.This distinctive group of algorithms offersexceptional accuracy in real-time ST-segmentmonitoring, arrhythmia detection and restingECG interpretation, delivering critical datathrough each stage of the exam.

To minimize ECG signal artifact, we developedour patented Source Consistency Filter (SCF).This feature offers exceptional trace qualitywhile still preserving a high-clarity ECG signalto assist with accurate clinical assessment.

A Legacy of ClinMortara brings proven expertise to the forefr

Did you know?Q-Stress can be installed on a server sharing the database with a number ofnetworked Q-Stress workstations, where exams are performed and where authorizedusers can use review stations to schedule exams, review full disclosure exams,enter conclusions and electronically sign results.

Q-STRESS AT A GLANCE:• A 24-inch touchscreen display offers a convenientalternative for data entry. Additionally, pre-defineddrop down menus for protocols, medication listsand diagnoses enable quick and easy data inputwith both touch and non-touch displays.

• Our Wireless Acquisition Module (WAM™) reducesobstacles for clinical personnel as they maneuverabout the stress lab. The WAM eliminates the needfor a tethered cable, helping to enhance both safetyand comfort.

• Real-time full disclosure allows clinicians to examinehistorical ECG data at any point in the exam. Userscan label, store, print, and review significant eventson the fly, and include them in the final report. Fulldisclosure captures all data from the pre-exercisephase of the test to the end of the recovery stage.

• 12-Lead ECG interpretation for adults, adolescentsand children, provides a secondary source for ECGacquisition.

• A bidirectional interface, with network-ready capability using HL7 or DICOM®,improves workflow and may reduce errorsassociated with manual entries. Highlycustomizable final reports can manuallyor automatically export to any destination.

Our user-centric philosophy of product development has led to a design approach that is sensitive to theneeds of both the clinician and patient. Q-Stress is a customizable, scalable platform offering highly flexibleconfigurations that can be adapted for each application, user and site.

With innovative technologies and a smart design, Q-Stress solves common problems associated with theacquisition and completion of accurate cardiac stress testing exams:

Artifact Reduction – The most prevalent issue in preventing a clean report is poor quality tracingscaused by noise and artifact. Tracings with reduced quality can compromise exam accuracy and maycause underreporting of events. Our unique Source Consistency Filter has been specifically designedto remove noise while maintaining ECG integrity. It accomplishes this without distorting the waveform,a critical factor in accurate diagnosis.

Wireless Data Acquisition - Due to the nature of the cardiac stress test, a diagnostic-quality ECG signalcan be difficult to obtain as patients transition through test stages, particularly during peak exercise.Q-Stress addresses this challenge through the use of our convenient Wireless Acquisition Module. TheWAM eliminates direct connection to the system, which may minimize cable-related artifact and simplifiesmovement between test devices.

Exceptional Visibility - Q-Stress features a high resolution 24-inch touchscreen display. One of the largestin the industry, it provides outstanding visibility and enables efficient system control. This powerful display,when combined with an exceptional user interface, enables a positive and highly productive user experience.

Patient prep, especially properlead placement, is critical to asuccessful stress test. Impedancecheck can be used to verifythe quality of each electrodeconnection, reducing the needfor repeat tests or unnecessarydelays during the test.

MeaningfulConnectivityExperience the benefits of information sharing.

Q-Stress supports the ability to save a PDF file to a common folder, plus utilize networked workstationsand review stations to share and access patient data. Electronic scheduling capabilities allow techniciansto monitor and manage workflow tasks continuously and effectively. Clinicians benefit from data sharingacross institutions. For true paperless workflow, final reports, full disclosure data, and all ECG events canbe reviewed and edited electronically.

ADDITIONAL CAPABILITIES ENABLE YOU TO:• Reduce cost by eliminating paper.• Minimize manual steps and transcription errors.• Retrieve a stress test worklist that includes patient demographics and order information.• Access and send stress reports within your Healthcare IT system.
