GE DASH 3000 Patient Monitor: Reliable and Versatile Vital Parameter Monitoring for Effective Patient Management.
The GE Dash 3000 patient monitor is a versatile and portable monitoring solution designed to meet the demands of both transport and bedside monitoring scenarios. Its lightweight and durable design make it an ideal choice for healthcare professionals who require flexibility and mobility in their patient monitoring equipment. Whether in a hospital setting or during transport, the Dash 3000 delivers reliable performance to ensure continuous monitoring of patient vital signs.
Equipped with options for both wired and wireless networking, the Dash 3000 seamlessly integrates with facility computer systems, allowing for efficient data transmission and connectivity. This connectivity enables healthcare providers to access patient information remotely, enhancing workflow efficiency and facilitating timely decision-making.
One of the standout features of the Dash 3000 is its ability to monitor multiple parameters simultaneously. From 3 to 5 lead ECG to pulse oximetry, non-invasive blood pressure, temperature, and cardiac output, this patient monitor offers comprehensive monitoring capabilities to support a wide range of clinical needs. With the ability to display 3 or 6 waveforms simultaneously on its 8.4-inch color LCD screen, healthcare providers have access to critical patient data at a glance.
The Dash 3000 is designed with user convenience in mind, featuring two rechargeable batteries that provide up to 5 hours of running time. With a recharge time of 2 to 4 hours, healthcare professionals can quickly replenish the batteries to ensure continuous monitoring without interruption. The monitor's intelligent battery management system allows for individual battery charging, ensuring that functionality is maintained even while one battery is being charged.
In addition to its exceptional portability and monitoring capabilities, the GE Dash 3000 patient monitor offers versatile networking options to facilitate seamless integration with facility computer systems. With both wired and wireless networking capabilities, healthcare providers have the flexibility to connect the monitor to the hospital's network infrastructure according to their specific needs and preferences. This connectivity enables efficient data transmission and real-time monitoring, ensuring that patient information is readily accessible to authorized personnel.
The Dash 3000's advanced display technology allows healthcare professionals to monitor multiple parameters simultaneously, enhancing their ability to assess patient status quickly and accurately. With the capability to display 3 to 6 waveforms and up to 4 pressure readings at once on its 8.4-inch color LCD screen, clinicians can easily visualize vital signs and waveform trends, facilitating informed decision-making and timely intervention as needed.
Furthermore, the GE Dash 3000 is equipped with a robust battery system that provides up to 4-5 hours of continuous running time, ensuring uninterrupted monitoring during critical situations. This extended battery life allows healthcare providers to focus on patient care without the distraction of frequent battery changes or recharging, enhancing workflow efficiency and patient safety.
The monitor's comprehensive monitoring capabilities include multi-lead ECG analysis and DINAMAP NIBP technology, consolidating essential monitoring functions into a single device. With integrated ECG analysis, healthcare professionals can quickly assess cardiac function and identify any abnormalities, while DINAMAP NIBP technology enables accurate and reliable non-invasive blood pressure monitoring.
Finally, the GE Dash 3000 streamlines the process of patient data transfer to facility computer systems, facilitating seamless integration with electronic medical records (EMRs) and other healthcare information systems. By automating the transfer of patient data, the monitor minimizes the risk of transcription errors and ensures that vital information is securely and efficiently transmitted for further analysis and documentation.
The GE Dash 3000 patient monitor offers comprehensive monitoring capabilities, allowing healthcare providers to track both patient status and system status efficiently. With intuitive categorization and priority settings, the monitor enables clinicians to prioritize and respond to critical events promptly.
Patient status and system status are categorized into four priority levels: crisis, warning, advisory, and message. This categorization system ensures that healthcare providers can quickly identify and address urgent patient needs or system malfunctions. In the event of a crisis, warning, advisory, or message, the monitor provides audible and visual notifications to alert healthcare staff, facilitating rapid response and intervention.
The monitor's settings can be customized to suit individual preferences and clinical requirements, allowing users to define default settings or create user-defined configurations tailored to specific patient populations or clinical scenarios. This flexibility ensures that the monitor can adapt to diverse patient care environments and clinician preferences, enhancing usability and efficiency.
To manage alarm fatigue and ensure uninterrupted patient monitoring, the GE Dash 3000 offers options for silencing and pausing alarms. Users can silence alarms for one minute, focusing attention on the current alarm only, or pause alarms for predefined durations. In adult ICU mode, alarms can be paused for up to five minutes, providing brief respite for healthcare providers to address immediate patient needs. In Neonatal ICU mode, the pause duration is three minutes, reflecting the unique monitoring requirements of neonatal patients. Additionally, in OR mode, users can choose to pause alarms for five, 15 minutes, or indefinitely, allowing flexibility to accommodate surgical procedures and minimize unnecessary interruptions.
Overall, the GE Dash 3000 patient monitor prioritizes patient safety and user experience by offering comprehensive alarm management features and customizable settings. By providing clear categorization, audible and visual notifications, and flexible alarm silencing and pausing options, the monitor empowers healthcare providers to deliver optimal care while minimizing alarm fatigue and ensuring timely intervention when needed.
