Abstract
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is a medium to diagnose a wide range of heart conditions by using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). To be able to perform the procedure; effective communication on breathing instruction is crucial in every CMR patient including those who have hearing challenges and language barrier. The patient needs to comply with the repetitive breathing instruction respectively. Failure to do so will lead to the verge of production of poor image quality of heart that has no diagnostic value and the physician having trouble diagnosing the patient’s condition even worse leading to fatality and mortality. Hence, this is where Beethoven Light comes into a picture to overcome this problem. It is designed to be such a portable device and convenient handling that consist of only 2 colors of light: red and green. The Beethoven Light successfully could aid the patient with its simple instruction for those who cannot comply and bare breathing instruction especially patients that have hearing disability, elderly, and also communication and language barrier.
