Maquet’s ALPHAMAXX multi-operational operating table includes a wide height adjustment range, longitudinal shift, lateral tilt and special patient positions. A multitude of motor-driven functions and user-programmable tabletop settings provide additional relief for the surgical staff.
Engineered to handle patients weighing a maximum of 450 kilograms, these units are now even higher in performance. The ALPHAMAXX boasts unparalleled safety and stability while the new mounting point permits quick use of a broad range of socket-mounted modules.

By controlling and managing temperature in critically ill patients, the noninvasive Arctic Sun temperature management system can potentially improve outcomes and reduce hospital costs.

The system circulates temperature-controlled water through specially formulated hydrogel pads that are adjustable to allow other interventions. Maintaining hypothermia and subsequent rewarming with the Arctic Sun may be faster and easier than conventional cooling methods and may require less staff time.

The Certo MR Wireless Network is a wireless network for magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. The new system provides greater flexibility by allowing Medrad wireless-enabled equipment to move freely both in the MRI suite and in the control room.

Artromick Mobile Computing Solutions give facilities a new choice for mobile clinical documentation in 2007. Mobile computing options, including a choice of all-in-one, thin-client or laptop platforms, give the IT team flexibility to implement the best solution for a facility. For clinical documentation, Artromick Mobile Computing WorkStations offer a 16-inch-by-16-inch footprint to ease maneuverability to the bedside and throughout the facility.

The Kimberly-Clark Microcuff Pediatric Endotracheal Tube, an airway management solution designed to meet the unique needs of children, features a micro-thin cuff that effectively seals the airway at ultra-low cuff pressures to reduce the risk of airway trauma.

Anatomically based marks assist in optimal tube placement, and the tube’s design makes it possible to more safely position the cuff lower in the trachea to minimize cuff pressure on the delicate upper airway tissues of pediatric patients.

When used together, the Edwards Vigileo monitor and FloTrac sensor provide continuous cardiac output (CCO), stroke volume (SV), and stroke volume variation (SVV) from an existing arterial line. Continuous SVR is calculated and displayed when interfaced with the patient's bedside monitor. The Vigileo monitor and FloTrac sensor require no manual calibration for the monitoring of flow parameters.

The R Series defibrillator offers several firsts in the area of simplifying operation, according to Zoll Meical Corp. It includes a OneStep System that provides a single cable for pacing, monitoring and defibrillation. It also includes one electrode set through which clnicians can monitor, pace, defibrillate and get real-time feedback on chest compressions, also known as Real CPR Help.

USCOM is a CW doppler-based hemodynamic monitor that provides real-time information from either the right or left side of the heart. The technique is entirely noninvasive, with no patient risk and no proprietary disposables. USCOM has been validated against bench flow models, flow-probes, echo, PAC and artificial hearts in animals, pediatrics and adults.

The system provides information regarding preload, contractility and afterload and has numerous applications in the PICU, ED, MICU, burn and trama units. On-site training is provided.

Second-generation Mobile Medication and Mobile Computing Carts are designed to support a variety of medication delivery systems in acute and long-term care facilities.

IPIX computers now include an antimicrobial additive that aids healthcare facilities with infection control efforts. The computers’ sealed cabinets, fanless operation and sealed, washable keyboards also assist facilities in this area.
