Klinikum Erding: New ultrasound device saves life on the patient bed!

In the Erding Clinic, there is reason to be happy: The department for vascular surgery was recently equipped with a modern portable ultrasound device. The acquisition was supported by the clinic's support association with a generous sum of 5,300 euros, such as Merkur. The new device enables the doctor: to carry out the inside, diagnoses directly on the patient bed and thus significantly complements the existing diagnosis in the clinic.

The mobile ultrasound device offers the functionalities of a stationary system, but can be used particularly flexibly due to its compact and light construction (with only 260 g). In time -critical situations, such as the fast detection of arterial closures, this device is invaluable. In addition, it can be used in minimally invasive interventions to the ultrasound -based vascular puncture, which can significantly reduce the complication rate.

high efficiency in patient care

One of the great advantages of the new ultrasound device is the possibility of monitoring vascular access directly after operational measures. This helps to rule out postoperative bleeding at an early stage, and thus contributes to the safety of the patient: inside in the Erding Clinic.

The portable ultrasound device that is now used in the clinic is the Viatom Dual Head Wireless, manufactured by Sonostar. Its wireless connection via WiFi and the platform -independent use via app (compatible with iOS, Android and Windows) offer the doctor: inside a high level of comfort. An intuitive touchscreen and pre-configured presets enable the need to use unnecessary patient movements, as [TrendMedic] (https://www.trendmedic.de/de/portable-ules-ultraschallgeraet- dual-head-wireless) emphasizes.
