Philips SureSigns VSi: Simplicity and reliability for vital signs

The Philips SureSigns VSi is a vital signs monitor designed to provide a portable and reliable solution for spot-check vital signs monitoring. This device is ideal for medical environments where accuracy and efficiency are crucial. With its barcode scanning technology and direct communication with electronic medical records (EMR), the VSi eliminates transcription errors and reduces data entry time, allowing medical staff to focus on patient care.

The SureSigns VSi is equipped with a 4.3-inch colour LED display that clearly shows blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation (SpO2), temperature and respiratory rate measurements. The screen is backlit, making it easy to read even in low light conditions. The monitor also features an oversized NBP ( Non-Invasive Blood Pressure) button, allowing for easy activation and deactivation with a single press.

One of the most notable features of the SureSigns VSi is its ability to measure oral temperature in just four seconds. This feature is particularly useful in medical environments where time is of the essence. The monitor can also store up to 50 patient records, making it easy to track the vital signs of multiple patients without having to transfer data immediately.

The SureSigns VSi is compatible with a wide range of adult, paediatric and neonatal sensors, making it versatile for use in various medical departments. It is also equipped with a lithium-ion battery, providing over 4.5 hours of battery life, which is sufficient to perform 20 blood pressure and oxygen saturation measurements every 4 hours.

In terms of connectivity, the SureSigns VSi offers data export via an Ethernet port or a serial connection in HL7 format. It also has a USB port for software updates and data export. The monitor is equipped with a synchronised network clock, ensuring that all measurements are recorded with accurate time stamps.

The SureSigns VSi is designed to be easily portable, with a sturdy handle and a robust casing. It is also equipped with a nurse call output, enabling fast and efficient communication in an emergency. The monitor uses the same supplies as all Philips monitors, making inventory management easier and reducing operational costs.

The Philips SureSigns VSi is a portable and reliable vital signs monitor, offering a cost-effective solution for spot checks of vital signs. With its advanced technology, ease of use and compatibility with electronic medical records, it is an ideal choice for modern medical environments.
