Spacelabs Healthcare, a subsidiary of OSI Systems, is introducing the qube patient monitor and the Arkon high-performance anesthesia delivery system. Both devices recently received FDA clearance.
The qube is a portable monitor that is very similar to the company’s XPREZZON patient monitor. Essentially it is a small and lightweight version of the XPREZZON, with long battery life and is purposed for emergency, general and post-anesthesia care units. It is mountable in many configurations and can be quickly detached for transport.
The Arkon is a high-performance anesthesia delivery system and that is about as much information as we have. Although the company claims the system is “a game changer” and “an anesthesia workstation enabling anesthesiologists to achieve the perfect balance between practice and patient”, further details are lacking. They do promise to provide leading technology with a user interface that is intuitive and highly customizable according to Deepak Chopra, OSI Systems CEO.
