About this app

The American College of Cardiology’s CardioSmart Heart Explorer app is designed to enhance the clinician/patient relationship at the point of care.

Features:
- With CardioSmart Heart Explorer, you can review and discuss common heart problems and treatment options with your patients and their caregivers. The app’s high-resolution cardiac graphics and animation have been optimized for tablets and phones.

- From the main menu, quickly explore the structure of an animated 3-D beating heart by swiping up or down through 9 basic layers of rotatable cardiac anatomy. Drag from left to right to rotate each image from an anterior to posterior view. Double-tap to return each image to the anterior, beating, view.

- Also from the main menu, additional layers of anterior and cross-sectional cardiac views are readily available to swipe through to highlight normal and pathological functions in easy-to-understand, high-resolution, 3-D and 2-D graphics.

- Choose additional cardiac patient education animations and interactive media from within the media gallery. A scrollable list of helpful explanatory animations and interactive displays are accessible via the media gallery button. Future versions of the app will allow customization of this list through online downloads of additional media.

- Access a “Send Feedback” link by clicking the bottom right info button.

Ratings and reviews

Great app to get the heart basics down, also love the continual addition to the media gallery! Some considerations for the designer are to maybe keep the labels on screen as you rotate the 3d model because they diseappear, also have an option to keep the animated motion going as you rotate the heart as well because right it stops. Also maybe add an EKG tab. Thank you!

Excellent graphics and explanations of heart disease and functioning.

too many crashes when selecting various options. Waste of time and space!
