Welch Allyn 88000A Video Colposcope – Optical precision, clinical safety and digital integration
The Welch Allyn 88000A Video Colposcope is a high-precision medical device designed for thorough examination of the cervix, vagina and external genitalia. It is intended for demanding healthcare professionals, particularly gynaecologists, who are looking for a reliable, ergonomic and internationally compliant solution for the screening, diagnosis and documentation of cervical lesions.
Equipped with a state-of-the-art optical system, the 88000A offers variable magnification from 4.5x to 30x, allowing detailed visualisation of tissue. Its fixed focal length of 300 mm ensures ideal depth of field for clinical examinations, while the electronic green filter improves the visibility of vascular structures, facilitating the identification of abnormalities. The adjustable polarising filter reduces glare and optimises image clarity, even in difficult lighting conditions.
Lighting is provided by a 21-watt metal arc lamp, offering intense, uniform and long-lasting white light (up to 750 hours of use). The ventilation cooling system ensures a stable operating temperature, extending the life of the device.
The colposcope is mounted on an adjustable vertical stand. These sturdy, easy-to-handle stands allow for precise and stable positioning during the examination. The ergonomic handle incorporates control buttons for zoom, focus, green filter activation and image capture, providing a smooth and intuitive user experience.
The Welch Allyn 88000A is also designed for easy integration into digital environments. It features an S-Video output and an RS-232 port for connection to monitors, video printers, recorders or computer systems. It complies with IEC 60601-1 electrical safety standards and can be used safely in medical environments, including in close proximity to patients.
Finally, the device is easy to maintain: only the lamp and fuses are user-replaceable, while cleaning can be carried out with compatible disinfectant solutions. Its robust design and proven reliability make it a long-lasting investment for medical practices, clinics and hospitals.
The Welch Allyn 88000A Video Colposcope embodies the perfect combination of cutting-edge technology, clinical safety and professional ergonomics for high-quality gynaecological examinations.
