Simplifying cardiac care
To cope with the growing demand for healthcare, healthcare productivity must rise.
For cardiology, that means focusing on all cardiac diseases, rather than isolated silos of technology.
Our philosophy is simple: People focused. Heathcare simplified. We focus on the technology so you can focus on your patient.
Reduce Door-to-Balloon time by clearing a path from Discovery to Treatment
Simplify cardiac care for STEMI patients with innovative, time-saving offerings that span from “discovery,” which starts with the paramedic in the field, and continues through to balloon angioplasty in the cardiac cath lab.
Whether patients arrive by ambulance or transport themselves to the hospital, Philips solutions can capture and integrate STEMI patients’ diagnostic data while expediting workflow – a key strategy that may help healthcare providers prevent information delays and shorten door-to-balloon times.

Timely triage and diagnosis
Whether it’s our new cardiograph, our wireless 12-lead ECG transmission from the field to the hospital for emergent cases, or diagnosis of non-acute cases using ultrasound, CT or MR, Philips solutions provide fast, non-invasive evaluation of patients with chest pain. Learn more.
Minimally Invasive Interventions
It’s no longer necessary to mentally reconstruct pathology from 2-dimensional views. Our Live 3D Transesophageal Echocardiography delivers exceptional 3D views that accurately depict cardiac structure, pathology and function.
Live 3D TEE tells the whole story.
You can capture all the views you need, assess function and morphology in real time, and measure and quantify the data. You’ll have access to more information for planning treatment than ever before. Facilitating your decisions to repair or replace with confidence.
The Philips cath lab experience is based on a simple yet powerful concept: The procedures you perform are increasingly complex, so using advanced technologies that assist you in diagnosing and treating your patients should not be. Our offerings for cardiovascular interventions are designed to simplify cath lab workflow, which can empower you to focus on your patients and may help you to deliver faster, more accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Surgical planning
Live 3D TEE allows surgeons and anesthesiologists to see the complete valve from multiple perspectives while it’s beating. Because Live 3D data can be reviewed and quantified at any time, new views and an easy-to-interpret quantification model provide additional data. A comprehensive plan can be in place before the first incision. Learn more.
Resuscitation solutions
From our market-leading AEDs to our advanced life support monitor/defibrillators, 12-lead transmission, clinical networking, CPR measurement and feedback, and code data management, Philips is connecting the home to the hospital with innovative resuscitation technologies that can help return patients to active living. Learn more.
Extending the reach of care
Healthcare should be provided wherever it’s best for the patient. We provide connected healthcare solutions at home that enable independence and peace of mind. Learn more.
