WATERFALL DISPLAY
QUICK, CONFIDENT ST SEGMENT ASSESSMENT

Waterfall Display is a powerful new

tool from Marquette Hellige that allows
reviewers to analyze ST segment data
more easily and efficiently.

Unique way to easily review vast

amounts of data.
This patent pending technology
presents every cardiac cycle in an entirely
new way. It rotates traditional waveform
data by 90, allowing the reviewer to look
down at the waveform. By stacking the
rotated waveforms, a tremendous amount
of ECG data can be compressed onto a
single screen.

Quickly and intuitively guides reviewers
to areas of possible concern.
Through its innovative presentation
of data and use of color. Waterfall Display
automatically transforms complex
information into patterns which can be
quickly and easily recognized by the
human eye.
White represents baseline activity.
Blue represents ST segment
depressions (- Amplitude).
Red represents ST segment elevations
(+ Amplitude).
By clearly highlighting areas of
possible concern. Waterfall Display allows
reviewers to efficiently review hours of
QRS complexes at-a-glance.
Reveals relevant patterns not readily
apparent through traditional
assessment methods.
By presenting sequentially acquired
data very succinctly. Waterfall Display
offers distinct advantages in clinical
assessment.
Visual pattern recognition helps call
attention to even brief changes in
waveforms.
Helps cancel out random noise without
the use of filters, so patterns at various
amplitudes can be detected in routine
ambulatory or stress ECG recordings.
Helps reviewer determine the presence,
frequency, duration and location of ST
segment changes.
For more detailed analysis, simply point-
and-click on any area to call up the
corresponding conventional waveform
strips and measurements.
In short, Waterfall Display is an efficient,
intuitive tool that can help patient monito-
ring, ambulatory monitoring and exercise
testing environments dramatically enhance
ST segment analysis. And its a Marquette
Hellige exclusive.

QUICK, CONFIDENT ST SEGMENT ASSESSMENT
Exercise Testing:
Quick, confident ST segment assessment.
Waterfall Display transforms all
exercise test ECGs into one quickly and
easily reviewable screen. Ready access to
this comprehensive and constantly
updated data can greatly enhance the
clinical value of your exercise testing
program.
Helps detect subtle temporal changes
during the test.
By offering at-a-glance ST segment
review that is updated in real time,
Waterfall Display enables a physician to
detect subtle temporal changes during
the test, without having to look at ECG
traces, QRS complexes or full disclosure
recordings.
Also, Waterfall Display automatically
presents the worst case ST segment and
provides an individual display for each of
the 12 leads. This data quickly calls
attention to potential clinically significant

changes, helping the clinician know
immediately when to take appropriate
actions.
Visually intuitive presentation helps
speed post-test review.
The ability to compress tremendous
amounts of data enables Waterfall Display to
present the results of an entire exercise test
on a single sheet of paper, for efficient
review. Its simple, yet distinct color system
helps localize ST changes, identifying where
and when ST segment deviations occurred
and how severe they were.
Waterfall Display can also reveal patterns
of clinically valuable information that were
previously not easily recognized. This
capability helps make Waterfall Display an
efficient exercise testing tool.
Holter Analysis:
Identify ST deviations at-a-glance.
With Waterfall Display, up to 8 hours
of full disclosure ECG data can be displayed
on one screen for quick review.
Highly reliable and efficient assessment.
By presenting patterns of data, Waterfall
Display makes it easy for reviewers to rapidly
note ST segment deviations from a distance.
The ability to clearly reveal changing
patterns, even in the presence of sporadic
noise, helps reviewers efficiently evaluate a
patients condition in the context of his or
her daily activities. The capabilities offered
by the use of the Waterfall Display makes it a
practical choice when assessing ST segment
changes, either at rest or during exercise.
Due to continual product innovation, Marquette Hellige designs
and specifications are subject to change without notice.
