  1. Usability study of 775 procedures performed in December 2016. ​​ https://www.usa.philips.com/healthcare/case-study/philips-azurion-lab-performance-study
  2. Independent survey performed between July and December 2022. The survey involved 38 participants – technologists, nurses and physicians – from 6 countries. Questions were asked to participants with relevant experience of both a Philips Integrated Coronary Suite (combination of Azurion, IntraSight and Philips Hemo, Eagle Eye, Refinity and OmniWire) and a multi-vendor coronary cath lab.

  4. Evaluated with clinical users in a simulated lab environment 
  5. VeriSight handling claims validated by clinician feedback collected from a bench study, with a sample size of 16 physicians and 16 technicians, totaling 32 clinicians. Clinicians also provided feedback based on images taken by VeriSight Pro in a porcine model. Data on file (D000259724). 
  6. These results were obtained during an independent survey performed between July and December 2022. The survey involved 38 participants from 6 countries spread over technologist, nurses and physicians. Questions were asked to participants that had relevant working experience in both a Philips Integrated Coronary Suite (combination of Azurion, IntraSight and Philips Hemo, Eagle Eye, Refinity and OmniWire) and a multi-vendor coronary cath lab (A multi-vendor lab is a cath lab where the equipment needed to perform the procedures is not supplied by a single vendor). The main objective was to evaluate the benefits of a Philips Integrated Coronary Suite compared to a multi-vendor lab. 
  7. Determined via the COCIR SRI method. Compared to the Azurion's predecessor, the Allura Xper platform. Exact energy reduction figures depend on the configuration.
