CARESCAPE B850 Monitor

Highly configurable for extreme performance

The clinically advanced and highly configurable CARESCAPE™ B850 monitor helps you stay a step ahead with clinical tools that meet the needs of the most critical patients.

 

Description

Make your investment work for the long-term

The CARESCAPE B850 monitor makes integration seamless because it’s flexible. With additional expansion and support for up to seven parameter modules, clinicians can easily flex the monitoring capabilities to meet changing patient acuity. Because technology is evolving, the modular design of the CARESCAPE B850 monitor allows new parameters to easily be added and shared with other CARESCAPE monitors across your ecosystem.

Personalize your view

Anesthesiologists and surgeons will appreciate the support for two 19-inch, non-glare, independent displays, allowing each to prioritize their unique information on a dedicated display. With an option for two mirrored displays, NICUs, ICUs, and isolation rooms can benefit from having one display in the patient room and a second display where caregivers can interact with the monitor without disturbing the patient.

 

Highly configurable to meet your needs

Software tailored to your care areas

Designed to work seamlessly across the patient care ecosystem, the CARESCAPE B850 monitor features dedicated software packages for operating room, post anesthesia, intensive care, neonatal, and emergency department care area.

Enterprise connectivity made effortless

The CARESCAPE monitoring platform is built on open architecture and industry standards to integrate fully and easily within your hospital infrastructure and preserve your legacy investments.

Clinical intelligence from multiple sources, like the telemetry system, lab results, medications, the MUSE™ cardiology information system, and more, can be brought directly to the bedside.

Because no two hospitals are the same

The CARESCAPE monitors are some of the most configurable of any monitor on the market—allowing you to customize the default configuration to match your workflows and patient populations. Using eight unique profiles, caregivers can quickly select the appropriate profile, such as pediatrics, and know the monitor defaults are configured for a pediatric patient—whether in the ICU, ED, or Neuro ICU. By customizing arrhythmia priority, alarm limits, tone and escalation, as well as a host of other settings, the CARESCAPE software offers alarm committees and hospital administrators a powerful tool to drive standardization.

Because you depend on accuracy

Offering consistent algorithms throughout the CARESCAPE monitoring platform, the CARESCAPE B850 incorporates advanced features such as smart lead fail and four simultaneous lead arrhythmia analysis enabled through GE Healthcare’s trusted EK-Pro algorithm. Workflows are streamlined by performing a diagnostic quality 12 lead EKG at the bedside using 12SL; further clinical context is provided directly at the bedside through a serial comparison powered by GE Healthcare’s MUSE cardiology information system. An additional benefit of the 12SL algorithm is consistent QT and QTc measurements to help identify patients at risk for sudden cardiac arrest. These technologies and more, provide clinical accuracy clinicians depend on.

Support clinical decision making

Clinicians need tools to help them quickly identify changes in patient status to determine the appropriate clinical care. The CARESCAPE portfolio includes tools that assist with clinical decision support, such as customizable page views for neurology, respiratory, cardiac, or other specialty views to quickly assess a patient’s condition at a glance.

  • SPV and PPV parameter measurements may quickly assess a patient’s responsiveness to fluids
  • GE Healthcare’s metabolics package can quickly help assess energy expenditure vs. caloric intake to help wean patients
  • Reference templates provide easy identification of ST segment changes to quickly identify an ST elevation or depression, providing faster response to a myocardial infarction (MI)

Whether using histograms, mini-trends, or supplementing the CARESCAPE software with additional GE Healthcare tools such as serial comparison from the MUSE cardiology information system, CARESCAPE patient monitors help support clinicians make informed clinical decisions.
