CardioVisual Segment Begins Airing in Waiting Rooms Throughout the U.S.

In doctors' waiting rooms throughout the U.S., CNN/AccentHealth has begun showing a segment featuring CardioVisual, a heart health mobile app that uses carefully curated videos to explain complex heart conditions and heart procedures.

Austin, TX, January 04, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Cardio-Visual, LLC, is pleased to announce that a segment featuring its flagship mobile app, CardioVisual, begins airing via AccentHealth in medical office waiting rooms throughout the United States today.

In September, Dr. Duane Pinto, an Interventional Cardiologist at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center of Harvard Medical School, Boston and longtime user of the CardioVisual app, was interviewed for a segment on AccentHealth, which provides award-winning CNN programming co-hosted by CNN’s Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta and HLN host Robin Meade.

Recognizing the CardioVisual app’s importance not only to busy healthcare providers who are grateful for the app’s utility as a patient-communication tool, CNN/AccentHealth also saw a need to share information about CardioVisual with patients sitting in waiting rooms. Viewing the videos in the waiting room or at home, patients will experience how the CardioVisual app explains — using short, easy-to-understand videos — complicated cardiovascular problems.

CardioVisual is a free, cardiologist-created mobile app (iPhone, iPad and Android) that provides clear understanding of complex heart conditions, treatments and procedures via high-quality, commercial-free videos. Doctors and nurses use the app in their practice and hospitals to facilitate patient communication, and then send patients home with a patient version of the app for further study.

Dr. Gupta is a practicing neurosurgeon at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, and Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery at Emory University School of Medicine.
