The Monitor B40 is not intended for use during MRI.
The Monitor B40 can be a stand-alone monitor or interfaced to other devices via a network.
The Monitor B40 monitors and displays: ECG (including ST segment, arrhythmia detection), invasive blood pressure, heart/pulse rate, osciliometric non-invasive blood pressure (systolic, diastolic and mean arterial pressure), functional oxygen saturation (Sp0O2) and pulse rate via continuous monitoring (including monitoring during conditions of clinical patient motion or low perfusion), temperature with a reusable or disposable electronic thermometer for continual monitoring.
Esophageal/Nasopharyngeal/Tympanic/Rectal/Bladder/Axillary/Skin/Airway/Room/Myocardial/Core/Surface temperature, impedance respiration, respiration rate, airway gases (C0O2, 02, N20, anesthetic agents, anesthetic agent identification and resplratory rate) and Entropy.
