Draeger releases next generation Infinity® Acute Care System monitoring solution PR Newswire LUBECK, Germany, May 30, 2012 - Advanced monitoring system streamlines workflow by enabling wireless transmission of vital signs data during patient transport, interoperability with ventilators, integration of Masimo rainbow® SET technology, and access to comprehensive clinical data at the point of need. LUBECK, Germany, May 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Draeger announces the VG2 release of its breakthrough Infinity Acute Care System monitoring solution. This release incorporates significant clinical benefits – including wireless surveillance, interoperability with Draeger's ventilation systems, land ambulance transport, and Masimo rainbow® SET technology. Draeger is one of the first major monitoring vendors to offer the full suite of Masimo's rainbow® SET noninvasive Pulse CO-Oximetry measurements, which can help hospitals increase patient safety and reduce costs. Medical technology brings many benefits to the delivery of patient care, but it can also add unwelcomed complexity for caregivers. As a result, clinicians often spend more time dealing with technical interfaces and complicated workflow and less time focusing on direct patient care. "At Draeger, our response to increased technical and clinical complexity is to explore ways we can simplify acute care delivery for clinicians," says Marita Klafke, President, Draeger Medical Systems Inc.

Acute Care System monitoring solution

PR Newswire

LUBECK, Germany, May 30, 2012

- Advanced monitoring system streamlines workflow by enabling wireless

transmission of vital signs data during patient transport, interoperability with

ventilators, integration of Masimo rainbow® SET technology, and access to

comprehensive clinical data at the point of need.

/PRNewswire/ --

Draeger announces the

VG2 release of its breakthrough Infinity Acute Care System

monitoring solution. This release incorporates significant clinical

benefits – including wireless surveillance, interoperability with

Draeger's ventilation systems, land ambulance transport, and Masimo

rainbow® SET technology. Draeger is one of the first major

monitoring vendors to offer the full suite of Masimo's rainbow® SET

noninvasive Pulse CO-Oximetry measurements, which can help

hospitals increase patient safety and reduce costs.

Medical technology brings many benefits to the delivery of patient care, but it

can also add unwelcomed complexity for caregivers. As a result, clinicians often

spend more time dealing with technical interfaces and complicated workflow

and less time focusing on direct patient care.

"At Draeger, our response to increased technical and clinical complexity is to

explore ways we can simplify acute care delivery for clinicians," says Marita

Klafke, President, Draeger Medical Systems Inc. "The Infinity Acute Care

System monitoring solution is designed to help streamline workflow so that the

clinician can focus on the needs of the patient."

The monitoring solution consists of a handheld Infinity M540 patient monitor

integrated with the Draeger Medical Cockpit®. The M540 transitions seamlessly

from the bedside to wireless transport, eliminating the time consuming process

of changing monitors and cables. The Medical Cockpit integrates vital signs

data from the M540, together with networked information such as patient

history, diagnostic images, lab results, and other relevant networked clinical

information into one widescreen display at the point of care.

The VG2 release also enables ventilation parameters from Draeger ventilators

to be displayed on the Medical Cockpit and sent over the network.

Wireless on transport

This fully networked solution allows a single monitor to accompany the patient

during the entire care pathway to minimize undetected events. When the

Infinity M540 is undocked at the bedside, it automatically switches to wireless

and broadcasts patient vital signs data to the Infinity Network allowing

uninterrupted monitoring during transport on the Infinity CentralStation. At the

same time, it opens the flow of patient information throughout the hospital and

beyond to support time-critical decision making.

Masimo rainbow® SET technology for noninvasive, continuous Pulse

CO-Oximetry measurements

The Infinity M540 integrates Masimo rainbow® SET technology – a

breakthrough monitoring platform that noninvasively and continuously

measures multiple blood components and hemodynamic parameters that

previously required invasive procedures.

"Integrating Masimo rainbow® SET technology into the Infinity Acute Care

System monitor solution gives our customers easy access to noninvasive

rainbow® measurements," continues Marita Klafke. "This technology delivers

real-time clinical intelligence that can help clinicians improve point-of-care

assessments and decision-making."

In addition to SpO(2), pulse rate, and perfusion index (PI), Masimo rainbow®

SET measures total hemoglobin (SpHb®), oxygen content (SpOC™),

carboxyhemoglobin (SpCO®), methemoglobin (SpMet®), and Pleth Variability

Index (PVI®). Monitoring SpHb helps clinicians to immediately and continually

assess a patient's hemoglobin level, which may help reduce unnecessary blood

transfusions and associated costs, while SpCO and SpMet allow clinicians to

rapidly and accurately measure potentially life-threatening carbon monoxide

(CO) and methemoglobin levels in the blood. Using PVI, clinicians can monitor a

patient's volume status and fluid responsiveness.

Masimo rainbow® SET technology eliminates patient discomfort and workflow

delays associated with traditional invasive blood test processes to obtain these

measurements. It provides immediate clinical information that allows clinicians

to make clinical decisions in a more efficient way, helping to potentially reduce

the cost of expensive lab tests and the risk of blood exposure and cross-

contamination.

The Infinity Acute Care System monitoring solution is manufactured by Draeger

Medical Systems, Inc.
