A 15-inch high-resolution color LCD, the DYNASCOPE 7000 Series DS-7300 bedside monitor is capable of monitoring 12-lead ECG, IBP, NIBP, CO, temp, resp, SpO2, pulse and EtCO2.

Other features include multirole amplifiers for BP/TEMP/CO, flexible system layout and user-defined touch key, 12-lead ECG display with three other waveforms and a three-channel built-in recorder (HS-720/HS-720E).

Cerner’s "Smart Room" is powered by the CareAware architecture - the integration of multiple devices with the Electronic Medical Record (EMR). The Smart Room is the next generation of "Smart Care," where the patient is the central focus. The Smart Room is the intersection of a variety of innovative technologies, including radio frequency identification (RFID), patient beds, medical bedside device, patient communication, information and entertainment.

The FORE-SIGHT Absolute Cerebral Oximeter has been expanded to include children over 40kg and infants.

The initial market focus is on high-risk cardiovascular surgeries, of which there are about 700,000 performed each year in the U.S. Additional market opportunities include a broad range of general surgical procedures and postoperative and critical care settings.

The FORE-SIGHT Cerebral Oximeter provides new information that allows clinicians to monitor and respond to instances of brain tissue oxygen deprivation before damage to the brain occurs.

The Maglife C Plus integrates the latest technology including fiber optic links for ECG, SpO2 and temperature. Optional parameters include two invasive pressures, ETCO2, iCO2, N2O, FiO2 and five anesthetic agents. All parameters are integrated into a single monitor designed to be placed adjacent to any imager from 0.2 to 3T. With the high-resolution, color remote display for the control room, all monitor functions can be accessed easily. The MRI system boasts two large 10.4-inch color TFT screens, automatic parameter activation and simple drop down menus.

The NICO2 Respiratory Profile Monitor, part of the AluRT Advanced Lung Recruitment Tool, is designed to monitor the patient rather than the machine side of the breathing circuit, going beyond conventional capnography to measure breath-by-breath volumetric CO2 — taking the guesswork out of ventilation management.

Bear Cub 750psv Infant Ventilator is designed to accommodate a range of patients from the small neonate to the 30-kg pediatric patient. The 750psv incorporates Integrated Synchronized Ventilation, Tidal Volume Monitoring and Independent Base & Inspiratory Flows for clinical flexibility in a compact design. Volume Limit provides the clinician with an additional guidance tool during pressure ventilation as it enhances volume management and establishes an upper boundary for deliverable tidal volumes during mechanical breaths.

Vital Signs Inc.’s Swedish sister company, Breas Medical AB, has received FDA clearance to market a new continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device, the iSleep 20i.

A high performance, advanced version of a previously cleared Breas CPAP device, iSleep 20i incorporates an enhanced "i-technology" detection algorithm that responds to subtle changes in the patient's breathing patterns, before significant apnea events can occur.

An advanced software option for mechanical ventilation, the PAV Proportional Assist Ventilation Plus delivers positive airway pressure that is directly related to a patient’s inspiratory effort during spontaneous breathing. Ventilator support increases as patient demand increases, optimizing the patient’s contribution to the total work of breathing.

The disposable air-Q intubating laryngeal airway can be used every day as a routine airway allowing clinicians the option to intubate using standard oral ET tubes. Clinicians can easily remove the air-Q after intubation with the unique Removal Stylet.

Mercury Medical is also introducing the air-Vu, a fiber optic rigid scope providing clinicians with the ability to reliably visualize the laryngeal inlet when intubating through the air-Q.

April 11, 2007 - InfoLogix Inc., provider of mobile intelligence technology solutions, has acquired a patent portfolio surrounding RFID technology that manages proper medication management and delivery. The acquisition strengthens InfoLogix's ability to extend the functionality of its Mobile Care Stations with automated medication tracking, in addition to complementing the capabilities of InfoLogix's RFID-based software systems, HealthTrax and BedCentral ED, which help manage workflow and locate clinicians, patients and assets in hospitals.
