Pacemaker-ID

I used to love this app. Now it is almost always wrong. Do not waste time with it.

Works great!!

Cool app. However needs work as it consistently is convinced Medtronic devices are Biotronik.

Took pictures of my pacemaker all good. Took a picture of my friends defibrillator and looks exactly like mine, EXACTLY. THen accidentally took picture of my dog… WOW she has a pacemaker??? Something fishie here…

Used to work much better than the android version. Now doesn't work at all.

Between my iPhone and my attending’s Android, the app is giving 90+ percent confidence that the same image is two different brands of pacemaker. With multiple X-rays. Cannot recommend.

The device has to be very close and well focused within the square. Too close Will get it wrong and a little off or distant -will get you different answers.

Oftentimes giving 0% for everything, very picky about orientation and sizing. Can make it work sometimes, but not reliably enough for clinical practice. On the plus side looks like there is android version too.

I’m an ER nurse, a pt presented with a need for pacemaker interrogation but had no info at all regarding pacemaker. The pt had a CXR so I decided to try to app I’ve forever had on my phone with no use. It resulted with a 98% match and a 1% turns out it was the 1% that was a match! What a waste!!!!!

The app worked well a few months ago (the results did vary somewhat with the chest X-ray), but it’s completely stopped working.
