Reaction to the Heartworks products has been extremely positive
King's College Hospital has conducted an expert evaluation of the HeartWorks TEE simulator.
The evaluation concludes that the "TEE simulator has demonstrated excellent face and content validity, as well as exciting potential as a training tool, particularly with respect to the understanding of probe handling and spatial relationships."

"It is exciting, one of the very best I have seen for some years. It shows the anatomy and function of the heart very accurately and is what you expect to see. This will have great impact on managing patients. This is just wonderful."
Professor Sir Magdi Yacoub, Professor of Cardiac Surgery
"The pictures and graphics do much more than words in the teaching of anatomy. Leonardo da Vinci was the first to draw images of the heart, he would have loved to see these. Absolutely stunning. The geometry is of the working heart, which one could never see before. The younger people who have to learn about the anatomy and 3D structure of the heart will never understand how difficult it was for our generation not to have this tool."
Professor Philipp Bonhoeffer, Head of cardiology at Great Ormond Street hospital, London
"The animation of the heart is truly amazing, it.s like working with the real thing. Exquisite."
Professor Robert Anderson , Professor of Cardiac Morphology, The Institute of Child Health, London
"There is enormous demand for this type of skill in the field of intensive care, from cardiac physiology students to clinical practitioners. The inclusion of the HeartWorks simulation experience in our course will enable delegates to observe and safely practice skills for a day in a typical scenario before they go on to hone their skills in the perioperative setting. I anticipate that it will be an extremely valuable addition and we are looking forward to its imminent implementation."
Dr Nick Fletcher, Consultant in Cardiothoracic Anaesthesia and Intensive Care and Honorary Senior Lecturer at St Georges Hospital and Medical School, London
