Irvine, Calif.-based Masimo Corporation has earned the CE mark for its Root connectivity and patient monitoring platform with noninvasive blood pressure and temperature capabilities.
Root, with noninvasive blood pressure measurement capabilities from SunTech Medical Inc., is designed to help clinician measure arterial blood pressure for adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients, with three distinct measurement modes: spot-check, automatic interval and stat interval. The platform also features a temperature module from Welch Allyn Inc., which is indicated to measure temperature of adult, pediatric and neonatal patients.
“Root and Patient SafetyNet powered with Masimo SET has changed for the better our patient care and patient safety,” said Caroline Stade, chief nursing officer at University Children’s Hospital Basel (UKBB) in Basel, Switzerland. “With remote alarm notification from Patient SafetyNet, we’ve been able to give proper care to patients in need without the false alarms that made proper care previously untenable. With the addition of blood pressure monitoring, we can provide patients in sub-acute care an integrated solution that will provide more efficient and effective care for our patients. We all, the physicians and nurses, are very happy with this new system and would never ever disclaim or work without the Root monitor.”
Root with noninvasive blood pressure and temperature measurement is currently not available in the United States.
