Description

Introduction

The PM-9000 Express Patient Monitor, a portable and accessible patient monitor, is supplied by rechargeable batteries or external AC power, which applies to adults, pediatric and neonates. You can select different configurations as required. Besides, the PM-9000 Express can be connected with the central monitoring system whereby a monitoring network will be formed. Parameters that the PM-9000 Express can monitor include: ECG, RESP, SpO2, NIBP, 2-channel TEMP, 2-channel IBP, CO and CO2. It, integrating the functions of parameter measurement, waveform monitoring, freezing and recording, is a compact and lightweight patient monitor. Its color TFT LCD is able to show patient parameters and 8 waveforms clearly. The compact control panel and knob control, and the easy-to-use menu system enable you to freeze, record, or perform other operations conveniently. The PM-9000 Express Patient Monitor measures patient’s ECG, NIBP, SpO2, TEMP, RESP, BP, CO and CO2 physiological signals through the ECG electrode, SpO2 sensor, cuff, temperature sensor and pressure transducer. During the measurement, the patient monitor does not get energy or any substance from the human body, and does not release any substance to the human body. However, it releases sine wave signals to the patient when measuring the respiration rate. The patient monitor converts the measured physiological signals to the digital signals, waveforms and values, and then displays them on the screen. You can control the patient monitor through the control panel. For example, you can set different alarm limits for different patients. Thus, when the patient monitor detects any physiological parameter exceeding the preset alarm limit, it will enable the audio and visual alarm. 

1.2 Application

1.2.1 General

In the treatment processes, it is necessary to monitor important physiological information of

patients. Therefore, the patient monitor has been playing an outstanding role among medical

devices. The development of technology does not only help medical staff get the important

physiological information, but also simplifies the procedures and makes it more effective. For

patients in hospital, the basic and important physiological information is required, including

ECG, SpO2, RESP, IBP, CO, CO2, TEMP, etc. In recent years, the development of science and technology helping measure and get important physiological information of patients has made the patient monitor more comprehensive in performance and better in quality. Today, multi-parameter patient monitors are widely used. 

1.2.2 Usage

Parameters that the PM-9000 Express can monitor include: ECG, RESP, SpO2,  NIBP, TEMP, IBP, CO AGand CO2. PM-9000 Express converts these physiological signals to digital signals, processes them and displays them on the screen. You can set the alarm limit as required. When the monitored parameter exceeds the preset alarm limit, the patient monitor will start the alarm function. In addition, you can control the patient monitor through the control panel. Usually, patient monitors are seen in some clinical areas in hospitals, such as ICU, CCU, intensive care units for heart disease patients, operating rooms, emergency departments and observation wards. They can also be used in clinics. The PM-9000 Express patient monitor should be run under the control of clinical staff.

PM-9000 Express patient monitor has the following functions:
