Clinical and operational information, such as patient weight, therapy length or bed status from Hill-Rom’s “smart beds” is unlocked with the launch of OnSite technology. The cornerstone of the technology is the OnSite System Software, which provides both alerting and data management capabilities from more than 30 data points acquired from VersaCare and TotalCare beds equipped with the technology. The alerting capabilities provide real-time information to staff and caregivers.

Siemens has introduced the completely redesigned Soarian Cardiology 2.0, which has become an integral part of Nebraska Heart Hospital’s strategy to be at the forefront of treating cardiovascular disease by pursuing comprehensive solutions. The CIVS blends cardiac imaging via syngoDynamics and information technology (IT) to optimize clinical performance and help improve patient outcomes.

Sentinel integrates the entire range of noninvasive diagnostic cardiology solutions including: ECG Exercise Testing, 12-Lead ECG, Holter Monitoring, ECG Event Recording and Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring into one central data management system. The system enables a straightforward approach to consolidation and management of diagnostic cardiology procedures by centralizing all solutions in a central networked database that reduces the need for paper records, increases time saved in searching for patient details and improves workflow management.

A new wall-mounted workstation series was recently deployed at Los Angeles-based HealthCare Partners Medical Group to complement their upgraded electronic health record system. The wall mount solution by EnovateIT consists of PC blades mounted on the wall in each exam room with an extendable and height adjustable PC arm.

The PRISMA II series of RGB/DVI/Video Converter Boards provides a range of cost-effective solutions with analog control for connecting TFT LCDs to standard graphics and/or video interfaces. Input signals such as analog RGB, analog video or DVI are automatically converted into TTL or LVDS signals accepted by TFT displays.

The mCare 300 Vital Signs Monitor can be used to assess patient essential vital signs quickly. At the tough of a button, clinicians can initiate a stat NIBP reading, record desired parameters (with the optional two-channel integrated recorder) and enlarge numeric values for greater visibility or silence alarms. Single-level menus assure instant access to the desired parameter.

The monitor includes basic arrhythmia monitoring with alarms for high and low heart rate, ventricular fibrillation and asystole. It can be used in adult, pediatric and neonatal settings.

The OxyView medical device is a pneumatic flow meter that provides a visual cue, viewable with the human eye, as to the flow of gas through a cannula, which conventionally employs very low pressure and gas volume to the patient wearing it. It’s adapted to be engaged between the nose or mouth-mounted cannula, where a compressed oxygen supply is delivered to the cannula through a flexible conduit.
OxyView delivers an easily readable confirmation of actual continuous flow and volume of oxygen.

A newly upgraded single-patient-use manometer for measurement of airway and PEEP pressure, the Mercury color coded Manometer is a lightweight pressure gauge designed to monitor expiratory pressure with an operational range of 0-60cm H2O.
The single-patient-use feature allows for an easy visual method of measuring airway pressure while offering more complete patient observation during resuscitation.

ProtocolWatch is an application available on Philips’ IntelliVue patient monitors that applies patient monitoring data to evidence-based care protocols. A new development in clinical decision support at the bedside, ProtocolWatch delivers customer-specific care protocols on the patient monitor screen, responsively using monitoring measurements to offer relevant screening and treatment information from evidence-based care guidelines.

Clinician Notifier is a uniquely designed remote notifer with new features that enhance nursing workflow. In a few seconds at the beginning of each shift, a nurse uses a Clinician Notifier PDA to self-assign the patients for which she has primary responsibility. Then, throughout her shift, she receives alarms from her assigned patients and is able to determine the nature of the alarm and current patient status by viewing real-time patient data and waveforms. She also has the ability to access real-time waveform data and review historical events for any patient on the unit at any time.
