Philips 865244 Remote Control: a Convenient Control Solution for the Clinical Environment
The Philips 865244 remote control has been developed to provide a reliable and ergonomic solution for healthcare professionals using the IntelliVue MX800 patient monitor. Connected via USB, it allows intuitive control of the monitor without direct interaction with the main screen. This device is particularly useful in situations where medical staff are at a distance or when the use of gloves makes interaction with a touchscreen less comfortable.
The compact size of the remote control (only 165 mm long and weighing less than 250 grams) makes it a discreet tool that is easy to handle and position close to the patient's bed or on a work surface. Its IP32 protection rating ensures good resistance to water splashes and solid particle penetration, which is essential in a hospital environment.
It supports all the key features of the IntelliVue MX800 monitor, enabling smooth navigation between screens, measurement validation, alarm configuration and quick access to patient menus. This continuity of control promotes constant monitoring and reduces intervention times, particularly in intensive care, operating theatres and neonatal units.
Its robust design allows for extended use in operating temperatures ranging from 0 to 40°C and safe storage between -20 and 60°C. It supports relative humidity up to 95% without condensation, making it suitable for the varied thermal and hygrometric conditions typical of healthcare facilities.
The Philips 865244 remote control not only complements the monitor, it actually extends its accessibility and efficiency, especially in healthcare settings where every second counts. With its native compatibility with the MX800 and its design tailored to the hospital environment, it is an essential accessory for facilities seeking to streamline their intensive care or anaesthesia management while enhancing safety and clinical responsiveness.
