Early detection and timely intervention are critical in providing effective critical care. For severely ill patients, secure monitoring is essential to comprehensively assess various patient conditions. Leveraging Nihon Kohden’s unique technology, we transform the invisible into visible data on monitors and seamlessly integrate this data using our advanced transport concept. When combined with Nihon Kohden ventilators and defibrillators, we can provide efficient monitoring and treatment in critical care settings.
The patient data collected through monitoring is distributed and seamlessly integrated across necessary locations and hospital systems, following a common protocol. This streamlined approach ensures efficient management of patient data, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes.
Enhancing Critical Care: Bedside Monitoring with Nihon Kohden Life Scope G5 and G7
The Nihon Kohden Life Scope G5 and G7 are engineered to cater to a wide range of clinical settings. They offer comprehensive patient data records, featuring multiwaveform, multi-parameter full disclosure, and seamless integration with third-party devices. These monitors are equipped with advanced features such as drug and pulmonary calculations, hemodynamic graphing, and advanced ECG analysis.
They are meticulously designed to enhance patient-centered care, significantly reduce false alarms, and decrease workload and time for diagnoses. The Life Scope series is synonymous with high-quality patient-centered care, cutting-edge technologies, and seamless patient transport. These monitors represent Nihon Kohden's commitment to improving patient outcomes and enhancing the efficiency of healthcare providers.
Seamless Patient Monitoring during Transport
Nihon Kohden's Lifescope PT is a versatile transport monitor that ensures high-quality care during patient transport, irrespective of the patient's condition or location. It can function independently or as part of an enterprise monitoring system. When linked to a Nihon Kohden bedside monitor, it serves as an input device and a transport monitor. For transport, the Life Scope is detached from the bedside monitor, providing full monitoring capabilities. Upon reaching the new care setting and reconnecting to a host monitor, patient data, including full disclosure, arrhythmia recall files, trends, and ST data, are automatically uploaded to the enterprise monitoring system, creating a seamless patient record.
The Hemodynamic Solution - Patient Safety at every level
Nihon Kohden's Hemodynamic Unit is a module that combines three innovative technologies for hemodynamic measurements for the first time in one device to provide smart data reviews. A comprehensive solution to provide the full range of hemodynamic monitoring with Nihon Kohden bedside monitors including PiCCO and ProAQT to meet the challenges of each acuity level.
The Synergy of Central Station and NK-HiQ
As the heart of the Nihon Kohden Patient Monitoring System, the Life Scope Central Station provides comprehensive patient monitoring and review of up to 32 patients using two displays. The full-featured system is designed to ensure critical data is always available for each patient throughout a hospital stay. The Central Station also supports a complete patient record by facilitating patient data transfer between multiple departments.
Many of the Life Scope Central Station features can also be accessed using the gateway solution, which allows for the secondary monitoring of up to 16 patients.
Together, Life Scope Central Station and NK-HiQ offer powerful patient monitoring in a smart, safe and secure manner.
SmartLink: An Efficient Alarm Management System
SmartLink, Nihon Kohden's innovative Alarm Management System, transforms critical care environments by enhancing clinical workflow, reducing alarm fatigue, and improving patient safety. Designed for today's fast-paced medical settings, SmartLink delivers precise, critical alerts directly to caregivers' mobile devices, allowing for swift and informed responses. The system's customizable settings help prioritize essential notifications, minimizing the distraction of irrelevant messages. By streamlining processes and filtering out redundant alarms, SmartLink enables doctors and nurses to focus on vital tasks, increasing efficiency and productivity. This leads to significant economic benefits, such as reduced patient stays and lower operational costs.
Comprehensive Ventilation Solutions in Critical Care by Nihon Kohden
Nihon Kohden’s ventilation product line, including the NKV-330, NKV-440, and NKV-550 systems, offers comprehensive solutions for critical care environments. These systems provide seamless transitions between invasive and non-invasive ventilation modes, high-flow oxygen therapy, and offer a range of patient comfort features. They are equipped with advanced monitoring capabilities, ensuring real-time access to vital patient data. The systems also incorporate safety measures such as dual HEPA filter protection and prompt notification of critical ventilator events. With their adaptability, efficiency, and focus on patient safety, Nihon Kohden’s ventilators are valuable tools for healthcare professionals in critical care.
Critical Care Support with the cardiolife TEC-5600
The Nihon Kohden cardiolife TEC-5600 is a monitor/defibrillator designed for critical care. It features a 6.5-inch TFT LCD display for quick data confirmation, and a Smart Cable™ System for easy sensor exchange. Its fast shock delivery and continuous observation capabilities, along with a biphasic waveform for effective defibrillation, enhance patient care. The device also supports noninvasive pacing and offers improved arrhythmia analysis with the ec1 system. Its compact and lightweight design makes it ideal for transport, making it a valuable tool in critical care environments.
The Pulse Oximeter, invented by Dr. Takuo Aoyagi in 1972, non-invasively monitors oxygen levels in the bloodstream. BluPro, a pulse oximetry technology, incorporates the NPi algorithm for unique filtering to eliminate artifacts. This ensures reliable and accurate measurements even in low perfusion or during motion, thereby enhancing patient monitoring.
Nihon Kohden's cap-ONE is a mainstream CO2 sensor designed for both intubated and non-intubated patients. It offers accurate measurements while reducing the burden on patients. This technology overcomes the disadvantages of mainstream sensors, providing optimal capnography. It's particularly beneficial in critical care settings, where continuous and accurate CO2 monitoring is essential.
Adding esCCO to conventional patient monitoring may lead to optimization of fluid management, decreased risk of complications and eventually to better outcomes including reduced length of stay. esCCO provides cardiac output information only using common vital sign parameters of ECG, SpO2 and blood pressure, requiring no additional sensors or special training. Hemodynamic trend monitoring will be available with esCCO for all care levels, not only during major surgeries but also in lower-risk procedures for high-risk patients showing a higher chance of bleeding or any hemodynamic stress.
The synECi18 technology uses standard 12-lead ECG waveforms to mathematically derive additional waveforms, providing more information about the heart's condition. It is particularly useful in detecting right-side and posterior infarctions, enhancing the diagnostic capabilities of ECG machines
Nihon Kohden’s iNIBP (intelligent Non-Invasive Blood Pressure) technology offers continuous and accurate blood pressure monitoring. It is a non-invasive blood pressure measurement technology that uses a linear inflation measurement method to complete the measurement while inflating the cuff. This reduces patient discomfort and provides faster results, improving patient experience and clinical efficiency.
