Patient monitoring cables
Cables, cable assemblies and systems for patient monitoring
Patient monitoring cables transmit signals from the patient's body to the monitoring instruments by means of electrodes or sensors. In ambulances, helicopters, operating theaters or intensive care stations monitoring systems have to transmit vital parameters reliably and without interruption. They must furthermore be quickly, easily and safely adaptable to different patients and situations.
A hybrid cable that we have developed can handle several monitoring functions at the same time: body temperature, ECG reading, blood pressure and oxygen content of blood (SPO2) are monitored via a robust round cable with small outer diameter, thus providing a space-saving alternative to conventional cables.
Our individual cables for patient monitoring offer these possible properties:
- low noise and outstanding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
- cross pressure stability and tensile strength
- extremely light weight and space saving design
- low attenuation and constant impedance
- high flexibility
- abrasion proofness
- long flex life
- torsion resistance
- wipe disinfectibility or sterizability
- antimicrobial cable surfaces
- skin compatibility and biocompatibility pursuant to USP Class VI and DIN ISO 10993 (Medical Grade Material)
- UL and CSA certification
