Carescape Monitor B650 - Clinical Excellence and Flexibility

The CARESCAPE Monitor B650 by GE Healthcare is a state-of-the-art medical monitoring device designed to enhance patient management by delivering essential clinical information quickly and accurately. This monitor combines the best technologies from Marquette Electronics and Datex-Ohmeda into a single platform, offering a wide range of clinical measurements and innovative algorithms for precise diagnostics.

The CARESCAPE Monitor B650 stands out for its ability to provide consistent hemodynamic measurements, even during intra-hospital transport, thanks to the CARESCAPE Patient Data Module. This module also transfers trend data, ensuring the data continuity crucial for optimal patient care. Advanced algorithms, such as GE EK-Pro, GE DINAMAP for non-invasive blood pressure, and 12SL diagnostic ECG with bidirectional MUSE communication, aid in accurate and reliable diagnostics.

The compact and flexible design of the CARESCAPE Monitor B650 easily adapts to various clinical environments. Its customizable display can show 8 to 14 waveforms, with overlay and inset options, meeting the specific needs of caregivers and patients. The Trim Knob and touch or physical keys make navigation and control of main features easy. Additionally, the pivoting frame allows the monitor to be configured to the specific needs of different care units, such as anesthesia, intensive care, emergency, and neonatal care.

The Pages & Profiles functionality allows monitors to be configured to unit standards and patient populations, increasing flexibility and workflow efficiency. The Auto View on Alarm (AVOA) automatically shares high-priority alarms within the care unit, improving responsiveness and care coordination. Integrated USB ports enable the connection of various peripherals, such as keyboards, mice, and barcode readers, facilitating data entry.

The CARESCAPE Monitor B650 is compatible with many existing Marquette Electronics and Datex-Ohmeda components, reducing upgrade costs. Structured upgrade programs and remote service via InSite ExC keep the monitor up-to-date and perform predictive maintenance, extending its lifespan and protecting long-term investments.

Connectivity with the Aware Gateway enables communication with Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems via the standard HL7 protocol. This integration facilitates clinical data management and improves care continuity. The monitor is also compatible with the CARESCAPE Network, allowing centralized viewing and remote alarm management, with bed-to-bed viewing and AVOA functionality.
