Advantage/TramscopeŽ Interface Module General Information
Marquette's Advantage multiplexed mass spectrometer system and the Tramscope 12 patient
monitor have been interfaced, creating an advancement in systems integration. This
interface creates a pathway for mass spectrometer measured inspired and expired O2,
N2, N2O, Halothane, Enflurane,
Desflurane and Isoflurane measurements to be displayed on the Tramscope 12 or Tramscope
12C monitor. This interface module also includes a CO2 analyzer
which provides a continuous display of the capnogram, breath-by-breath inspired and
expired CO2 measurement and respiratory rate.
Patient vital signs and mass spectrometer data are stored and trended by the Tramscope
monitor, and may be printed for case documentation, or transmitted to the Centralscope 12
central station for remote observation. An added benefit is that this interface is a focal
point for mass spectrometer and vital signs data, eliminating the need for the Advantage
MGApc display monitor, helping you to organize your workstation.
The Advantage/Tramscope interface module will communicate with any Advantage/Lifewatch
Plus System, new or old, and may be used in any combination with the Advantage MGApc or
PDU monitors. The Advantage data, combined with Tramscope data such as multilead ECG with
ST segment analysis, cardiac calculations and automatic PA Wedge measurements, provide a
powerful, patient monitoring system. |
