The ThermoSuit System by Life Recovery Systems uses innovative technology to rapidly cool a patient's core temperature. It consists of a disposable body suit and a means to pump coolant within the suit over the skin of the patient.

With its integral suction lumen and evacuation port, the Hi-Lo Evac endotracheal tube by Tyco/Mallinckrodt provides a safe way to suction the subglottic area above the ET tube cuff. The lumen avoids trauma to the vocal cords and the device has been shown to reduce or delay the onset of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP).

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

The INVOS System is a patient monitoring system that noninvasively and continuously monitors changes in the regional oxygen saturation of the blood in the brain and consists of disposable, single-patient use SomaSensors, an INVOS monitor display and associated accessories.
The system monitors changes in regional saturation of oxygen, or rSO2, within a sample of blood in the cerebral cortex. Changes in INVOS (In Vivo Optical Spectroscopy) values monitor the critical balance between oxygen delivery and cerebral consumption.

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.

New methods in ventilation monitoring expand the performance of the Engstrom Carestation ventilator. With SpiroDynamics, tracheal pressure can be monitored regardless of ventilator setting. The method facilitates compliance measurement at the beginning, middle and end of a breath for better assessment of overdistention, providing a dynostatic curve that better estimates alveolar pressure.

CD Wipeout addresses the needs of hospitals and imaging centers that transitioned to a digital environment for image and record creation, distribution and storage, and now require a way to properly destroy CDs that were burned with patient data. Whether a staff member inadvertently burns too many copies of a patient CD, or perhaps even a partially burned, rejected CD, a disc may have some level of patient data and therefore requires proper destruction.

Code Inc.’s bar code readers, CR2 and CR3, meet and exceed both UL and CB quality and safety standards accepted throughout the world.
They are rugged, lightweight and will operate for more than a complete shift at the highest use rate, performing more than 50,000 reads, and transmit from a single battery charge.

The release of version 3.6 of ED PulseCheck includes three new breakthrough features available in its comprehensive and integrated emergency department information system (EDIS).
The native Web-based software combines triage, patient tracking and physician and nursing documentation as well as several other features.

The combined features of HT ISM with EMC Centera provide a powerful solution for identifying data to be stored and automatically transferring it there as part of a multicopy, multisite disaster recovery archiving strategy.
