At the 48th Annual Meeting of the European Society for Paediatric Research in Prague, Czech Republic, Dräger presents its new Infinity® VF7 software, which enables Infinity patient monitors to communicate with Dräger incubators, infant warmers and ventilation devices. The new software enables caregivers to view vital signs, respiration and thermo regulation data from multiple devices together on one screen at the bedside. Today's neonatal staff members face significant challenges: They care for multiple fragile patients, while simultaneously having to assess vital patient information from separate devices. With the new software release, patient information from multiple devices is integrated on one display that can easily be configured for the user's need. Additionally, a special neonatal admit screen automatically updates patient days of life and correct gestational age.
"With this release, Dräger is taking another step toward making comprehensive data about the very special patients in the NICU easily accessible to care givers", says Harald Kneuer, Director Product Management, Business Unit Perinatal Care at Dräger. "As a result, faster recognition of the infants current situation supports improved decision making."
The new software is standard for Infinity Delta, Delta XL and Kappa patient monitors. It is also available as an upgrade kit for existing devices.
