The production of patient monitors that are resistant to the magnetic fields of MRI machines has been launched In the Moscow region

The WestMedGroup company, a resident of the Dubna SEZ, is establishing the production of CADUCEUS HEALTH amagnetic patient monitors - specialized medical devices operating in an electromagnetic environment with a controlled level of radio frequency interference. 

The devices are used to assess the condition of patients before surgery, monitor the vital parameters during anesthesia and examination under magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), as well as in intensive care units. The monitors are capable of recording electrocardiogram indicators, blood pressure, temperature, simultaneously recording respiratory rate, respiratory waveform, instantaneous heart rate and blood oxygen saturation, which allows not only to evaluate the main indicators, but also to see the dynamics and in a timely manner recognize life-threatening conditions, such as heart rhythm disturbances, hypoxia, hypotension and others.

One of the main distinctive features of amagnetic patient monitors is that they do not interfere with the operation of a MRI scanner and are not affected by the magnetic field of the device; they are designed specifically for use in such conditions and guarantee accurate and high-quality research results. The devices are also able to withstand the effects of electrical impulses used during cardiac defibrillation. This ensures the safety of medical personnel and the patient during the procedure.

CADUCEUS amagnetic patient monitors can be powered either by battery or AC power, which provides additional mobility in use. In addition, they can connect to screens and exchange data via an Ethernet cable or WLAN. These devices are planned to be supplied to a number of public and commercial healthcare institutions, including surgical, therapeutic, pediatric departments, postoperative wards and intensive care units.
