GE HealthCare Launches Tablet-Based Venue Sprint POC Ultrasound

GE HealthCare has launched Venue Sprint, a new ultrasound device that the company designed for maximum portability.
 
Venue Sprint combines the company’s Venue software and artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled tools. It also has wireless probe capability with the Vscan Air handheld ultrasound systems.
 
The portable system in a tablet form with wireless Vscan Air dual-probes helps clinicians offer care in environments like critical care, emergency medicine, and medical transport. Its AI-enabled resources and documentation tools aim to simplify processes and drive consistency, GE HealthCare said.
 
Other Venue family ultrasound systems will also now offer wireless probe connectivity, supplementary advanced clinical tools and the latest ViewPoint 6 updates. All Venue family ultrasound systems have access to Caption Guidance, which provides turn-by-turn, on-screen guidance to help capture diagnostic-quality cardiac ultrasound images.
 
“The Venue Sprint—and new enhancements to the Venue family—are designed to empower clinicians to deliver care wherever it is needed with the simplicity, flexibility and support they require to make confident clinical decisions,” said Karley Yoder, General Manager, Point of Care Ultrasound and Chief Digital Officer, Ultrasound at GE HealthCare. “We are excited to expand and enhance our point of care portfolio with unique solutions that build on our strengths in digital and handheld ultrasound to help clinicians navigate the evolving healthcare landscape.”
 
Venue family ultrasound systems feature a bladder volume tool and an auto measurement tool to calculate arterial flow. The Venue family, including the Venue Sprint, are available in the U.S. and will launch in key countries around the globe this year.
