Today’s operating theatres are simply brimming with the latest technology, and surgical staff has to know how to correctly work any number of medical devices whenever needed. Variations in how the various devices are controlled present just as big a challenge as the increasing sophistication of system functions. Delays and insufficient coordination in the operating theatre not only cost time and money, but can also compromise safety and increase stress. The TruConnect control and training system centralizes information and device control. It enables both mobile and stationary control of a variety of Trumpf operating theatre components, offering convenient, handheld and touch screen control of integrated devices safely, reliably and in different rooms. Users are free to move from one operating theatre to another, using a handheld unit to control the devices in each room. Thanks to its novel, real-time localization capability, TruConnect recognizes exactly which devices a particular room has and how they are configured, ensuring that mobile control is safe. Simple and safe control is underpinned by graphical representation of devices. The system also supports the use of multiple portable TruConnect Control devices at the same time in one operating theatre. This means one person can be adjusting the operating table while another person attends to the surgical lighting, camera and image documentation. Now for the first time, certain devices can be visualized in 3D. Depending on the device, a 3D visualization of integrated devices can be displayed on the touch screen and adjusted with simple swipe gestures. For instance, if the operating table’s left leg plate needs to be angled down, all the controller has to do is to tap the plate on the 3D visualization and drag it downward. The control panel helps by providing a simulated preview and information such as the current tilt angle. With elements clearly organized on the screen, it takes almost no time at all to master the system. There are short, easy-to-understand video tutorials to complement the intuitive control concept. It is quick and easy to switch between available devices and call up tutorials or device manuals. The system fulfills all hygiene requirements of today’s surgical wings. Communication between the portable TruConnect Control unit and the TruConnect server is managed by the TruConnect Wallstation. Taking up a minimum of wall space in the operating theatre, the Wallstation can be installed just as easily in new buildings as when refurbishing existing ones. The portable control is a handheld nerve centre with a touch screen. Impact-protected by a bumper, its special case means it can be used in sterile environments. Using reliable induction technology, it can be charged up quickly and wirelessly via the TruConnect Dock, which simplifies cleaning and eliminates unnecessary cabling. TruConnect is based on a flexible, extendable app concept coupled with a range of innovative technologies. It can be used to control Trumpf operating tables, lights, cameras or the customer’s own music selection. Smartphones, iPods and iPads can be controlled via a wireless connection. The app concept is designed to integrate additional functions.

The ESA615 Electrical Safety Analyzer brings fast and simple automated testing to a portable analyzer. Whether it is simple testing or comprehensive analysis, the ESA615 can do it all. This multifaceted device performs all primary electrical safety tests, including line (mains) voltage, ground wire (protective earth) resistance, insulation resistance, device current, and lead (patient) leakage tests. It also offers ECG simulation and point-to-point voltage, leakage and resistance tests. Versatile to global electrical safety standards, the ESA615 tests to ANSI/AAMI ES1, NFPA-99, IEC62353 (VDE751), IEC6060-1 (2nd and 3rd editions) and AS/NZS 3551.

Why should you choose the ESA615?

The Evita V300 is a customized intensive care ventilator that can meet the wide spectrum of clinical therapy requirements. Depending on what is required, the team of physicians can supplement it with ventilation modes, applications or screen displays. For example, SmartCare/ PS provides an option for weaning patients from mechanical ventilation. The device automatically leads the patient back to completely independent breathing and can shorten the total duration of ventilation considerably. Transportation of intensive care patients between clinic departments continues to increase. For this reason, seamless intensive ventilation has gained significance because changing devices can lead to complications. The Evita V300 is equipped to be installed in a supply unit, mounted on a cart next to a patient’s bed or to be taken along when transporting the patient in the clinic.

Designed for a fast paced work environment, the Infinium Omni III patient monitor offers an extremely simple and adaptable user interface.   Patient information along with vital sign settings can be quickly modified to meet the needs of a patient’s changing condition.   The Omni III offers a standard high resolution 15-inch touch screen to optimize the speed of patient care.  The user can therefore make quick screen adjustments, set default settings, alarm limits, and manage up to 72 hours of detailed patient data.  From the general floor to high acuity surgeries, the Infinium Omni series patient monitors are designed to fit-in and move amongst many patient care areas.  The Omni III offers standard measurements of: Non-Invasive Blood Pressure, ECG with arrhythmia detection, motion tolerant SpO2, Temperature, and Respiration Rate.  End-tidal Co2, Anesthetic Agent measurement, 12 lead ECG, Cardiac Output and Invasive Blood Pressure can be added on-site by simply attaching plug-in modules.    This field upgradability can allow the user to customize the monitor’s acuity level while the patient’s condition changes. If desired, the user can move from a basic vital signs monitor, to a continuous bedside monitor, to an operating room monitor while keeping the patient on a single monitor at all times.   The   Omni III offers several connective solutions to network multiple monitors and/or manage patient data on an electronic medical records platform or a HL7 based hospital information system.   The Omni III patient monitor offers Ethernet and RS-232 connections with an open source communication protocol.  Infinium offers two levels of networking and connectivity. The Omni III is HL7 compliant.  The HL7 network protocol will allow for all patient information and vital sign trends to be transferred and stored on a hospital information system.  For non-HL7 medical facilities, there is the Infinium Omniview  central station which allows the real time remote monitoring and networking of up to 64 Omni patient monitors.  The  Omniview archives full disclosure of all patient vital sign trends.  The patient data from the Omniview  can be very simply saved, stored, printed, and, transferred.
