The Mac-Lab system is indicated for use on patients of all ages when a physician determines that a patient would benefit from a hemodynamic procedure. Mac-Lab may be used in a variety of hospital and clinical settings to record hemodynamic data and measurements, which may then be displayed, filtered, digitized, amplified, measured, and calculated and/or transmitted for storage, analysis and viewing at distributed locations.

The CardioLab system is indicated for use on patients of all ages when a physician determines that a patient would benefit from an electrophysiology procedure. CardioLab may be used in a variety of hospital and clinical settings to record electrophysiology data and measurements, which may then be displayed filtered, digitized, amplified, measured, and calculated and/or transmitted for storage, analysis and viewing at distributed locations.

The ComboLab system is indicated for use on patients of all ages when a physician determines that a patient would benefit from either a hemodynamic or electrophysiology procedure. ComboLab may be used in a variety of hospital and clinical settings to record hemodynamic and electrophysiology data and measurements, which may then be displayed, filtered, digitized, amplified, measured, calculated and/or transmitted for storage, analysis and viewing at distributed locations.

The MLCL Client Software is indicated for use on patients of all ages when a physician determines that a patient would benefit from either a hemodynamic or electrophysiology procedure. MLCL Client Software may be used in a variety of hospital and clinical settings to record, document and/or review hemodynamic and electrophysiology data and measurements, which may then be displayed, filtered, digitized, amplified, measured, calculated and/or transmitted for storage, analysis and viewing at distributed locations.
