“We use EP-TRACER^® 2 because of its excellent speed, high quality of intracardiac signals and ease of use.
It enables us to quickly get to precise and reliable results.“

“I have used the electrophysiological systems of Schwarzer Cardiotek for more than 20 years. I choose this system for the combined benefits of excellent signal quality and portability. The compact system EP-TRACER^® Portable is run through a laptop allowing me full portability without compromising on quality, and thus I can bring it with me wherever I require. Whether within Spain or on humanitarian missions abroad. The easy handling of the EP-TRACER^® Portable and its fully integrated stimulator enables me to work effectively and fast.”

Medical Director, Surgical Electrophysiology Program, Senior Associate Cardiologist, Department of Cardiology, Assistant Professor of Pediatrics, Harvard Medical School, Boston Children´s Hospital, USA

“The EP-TRACER^® is a compact and efficient integrated EP stimulator and recording system for use in both intraoperative mapping work in complex congenital heart surgery, as well as for bedside EP studies. It is a fantastic addition to pediatric and congenital EP practice and allows us to provide the best care for our patients.“

Director, Department of Cardiology and Intensive Care Medicine, Evangelisches Krankenhaus Kalk, Cologne, Germany

“We have used the EP-TRACER^® for CSP procedures for several years with excellent results. It is very intuitive to use and can be easily adapted to our clinical needs. Due to its portability, we can also move the system to our cardiac surgery OR for combined lead extraction/CSP procedures.“

Georgios Syros
MD, Director of Arrhythmia Services at Mount Sinai Queens, USA

“EP-TRACER^® has been very helpful in assisting me in implementing Conduction System Pacemakers in a non-EP lab setting.“

Prof. Dr. Julian Chun
Cardioangiologic Center Bethanien (CCB), Head Physician Cardiology, Agaplesion Markuskrankenhaus, Frankfurt am Main Germany

“Other than the excellent signal quality, the beauty of this system lies in the mobility, allowing more patients to be treated in non-EP labs. “

Prof. Dr. Boris Schmidt
Specialist in Internal Medicine and Cardiology Medical Clinic III, CCB Frankfurt am Main, Germany

“The displayed signal quality was equivalent in both systems. High-frequency signals appeared to be extraordinary distinct and crisp on the EP-TRACER^® system.“

Dr. Antony French, FRCP
Consultant Cardiologist & Electrophysiologist , Hereford County Hospital, UK

“As a small rural hospital with more constrained facilities we found the EP-TRACER^® to be transformative for our CSP programme. The ease of use and mobility of the platform, alongside it’s fidelity and quality has allowed us to expand our ambitions towards an on-site ablation service without compromising our other commitments. This has been backed up with excellent remote and on-site technical support.“

Prof. Gian Battista Chierchia
Director of the Atrial Fibrillation Program University Ziekenhuis, Belgium

“The benefits of a built-in stimulator are easy to figure out because we have one single device instead of having two – a reader and a stimulator – which is from the space point of view and the user point of view much more useful. These systems can also be mobile.“

Dr. Daniel Keene
Clinical Senior Lecturer in Cardiac Electrophysiology and Devices National Heart and Lung Institute (NHLI) at Imperial College London, UK

“I think particularly in view of its portability it may provide significant assistance for HIS bundle pacing in labs currently not set up for EP.“

Dr. Javier Fernandez Portales
Medical Director ANGIOEX, Extremadura, Spain

“The EP-TRACER^®´s bipolar signal and its trigger are unbeatable. It is a tremendous tool for me.“

Xu Chen, M.D.
Department of Cardiology Rigshospitalet Copenhagen Denmark

“The most advantages of EP-TRACER^® are the clear signals, beat-to-beat real time view, small program to be used on various computers and the integrated stimulator.“
