Symphony N-3000 Pulse Oximeter – Nellcor: Oxismart™ performance for high-precision care
The SYMPHONY N-3000 pulse oximeter from Nellcor is a monitor designed for continuous, non-invasive monitoring of oxygen saturation and heart rate. Designed for use in a wide range of clinical environments, from intensive care units to outpatient care, it meets the requirements of healthcare professionals looking for a high-performance, reliable and adaptable device.
Its architecture allows for stand-alone use or stacked configuration with the N-3100 (blood pressure) and N-3200 (display and printing) modules. This modularity is ideal for centralising and viewing patient data in real time, in tabular or graphical format.
The SYMPHONY N-3000 features Oxismartâ„¢ technology, which reduces interference caused by movement or low perfusion. When searching for a pulse or in cases of constant movement, the device intelligently adjusts its alert thresholds to avoid inappropriate alarms while ensuring patient safety. Audible alarms are prioritised and can be adjusted to ensure monitoring is tailored to each patient profile.
The device is designed to operate reliably on mains power or an internal rechargeable battery, with a battery life of over 4 hours. In the absence of an external power supply, it continues to provide reliable data, making it a wise choice for intra-hospital transport.
The user interface is simple and intuitive: a digital screen continuously displays SpOâ‚‚and heart rate, accompanied by indicator lights (low battery, audible alarm active, neonatal mode, etc.) and a visual pulse search indicator. A dedicated button allows switching between adult/paediatric and neonatal modes, ensuring appropriate threshold settings from start-up.
The oximeter also allows trend monitoring thanks to its internal memory, which can store data for up to 5 days. Three storage formats are available depending on clinical preferences: average, extreme values or last measurement. In terms of safety, the device complies with international standards IEC 601-1-1 and ISO 10993-1. All sensors used are biocompatible and tested to prevent irritation or cytotoxicity, ensuring maximum tolerance even during prolonged use in newborns.
The Nellcor SYMPHONY N-3000 is therefore a reliable, ergonomic and safe solution for monitoring essential vital signs. It is ideal for facilities seeking high performance and flexibility of use.
