EKGDX is the only software in the world capable of generating any twelve-lead EKG with a format identical to the real ones. It is considered the best EKG simulator ever. The educational part of the platform is focused on interactive learning, combined with graphic explanations and clinical-anatomical correlation. It is a superb addition to the library of every medical student, nurse, intern, resident, physicians in practice, cardiology fellows that are interested in improving their interpretation of EKGs and preparing for board examinations.

How much does EKGDX cost?

EKGDX contains Volume I and II. Volume I is $9.99/month (subscription) and Volume II is $59.99 for 6 months access.

What the EKG DX name means?

The initial idea was to develop an artificial intelligence (still in development) that diagnoses any type of EKG. That is why we decided the name EKGDX. EKG stands for electrocardiogram and DX stands for diagnosis. The decision of the "K" in the word EKG, is in honor of Wilhelm Einthoven.

How does EKGDX differ from other books?

Currently, most physicians, nurses and students experience problems when performing an adequate interpretation of an EKG, and this is due to several factors. To solve this GLOBAL problem, we created an interactive and didactic tool that facilitates the learning process in a different way.

Mission

The EKGDX team's mission:

1- Create an online multi-language educational platform focused on electrocardiogram, to address the global issue of inadequate EKG interpretation. The platform must be accessible from anywhere in the world.

2- Develop a diagnostic tool for electrocardiogram using artificial intelligence to save more lives and and prevent the thousands of deaths that occur each year due to incorrect diagnosis.

History

During the planning of our Artificial Intelligence project, we identified a big problem, and consists of not having a considerable amount (hundreds of thousands of images) of EKGs. To solve this issue, we decided to create a software that allows us to generate any kind of EKG, while giving us the ability to modify each wave, interval, and segment in terms of amplitude and duration. This is how we create the best EKG simulator that has ever existed. When we realized the educational potential of the platform, Dr. Albert Roig (Founder) decided to write the educational content and thus the educational part was born.

Chronology

February 2017 - The planning of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) project was started.

May 2017 - The AI project was put on hold due to a lack of electrocardiograms (hundreds of thousands needed).

June 2017 - Albert Roig (founder) presented to Pedro Novales (co-founder) the idea of creating an “EKG Simulator” as a solution to create the images database of EKGs.

September 2017 - Started the "EKG Simulator" development.

December 2017 - The project was named as EKGDX.

October 2018 - The development of the EKG Simulator starts from scratch, because the results were not as expected.

January 2019 - The teaching potential of the EKGDX platform became more obvious and the educational contents were expanded to include guidelines, cardiac trials, references, heart sounds, question banks, 3D animations, graphic explanations, coronary angiograms, and echocardiograms to name a few.

March 2020 - The educational part of EKGDX (web-based) was launched in honor of Sir Thomas Lewis, who wrote the first EKG book in 1913 and died in March 1945.

July 2020 - Started the development of the EKGDX App for iOS and Android.

January 2021 - We announce d a collaborative partnership with the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM).

February 2021- We began working on Volume II (Set A) consisting of 100 actual EKG cases that simulate the ABIM Certification Exam in Cardiovascular Diseases, EKG Section.

May 2022: Volume II (Set A) was completed but the release was postponed until the EKGDX App is ready.

August 2022: The EKGDX App is ready. The process of submit the App to the App Store and Google Play has started.

September 2022: The EKGDX App was finally approved, and the official launch was scheduled for September 29, in commemoration of World Heart Day.

December 2022: We hit 12,500 users accros the world.

April 2023: We hit 20,000 users accros the world.

June 2023: EKGDX was presented at the Inter-American Congress of Cardiology (SIAC), Panama 2023.

September 2023: We hit 30,000 users accros the world.

January 2024: Our EKG Blog is ranked Top 10 in Google search.

May 2024: We hit 50,000 users accros the world.

June 2024: The EKGDX App has been updated.

July 2024: The Artificial Intelligence (AI) project has been re-started.

August 2024: We hit 60,000 users accros the world.

September 2024: The cardiology residency at the Sanatorio Santa Clara Talar begins to use EKGDX. This important news was announced by Red Basa, one of the largest healthcare networks in Argentina.

September 2024: The Sanatorio Americano, together with the Cardiology Academic Unit of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of the Republic (Uruguay), begins to use EKGDX.

EKGDX is exclusively developed by Roinova Corporation.
