Arcomed AG products

A new propofol pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PKePD) model was developed using bispectral index (BIS) as the targeted endpoint based on previously published data from 30 studies.

The IV infusion pump by arcomed includes a wide range of features that improve the pumps’ handling and operation by healthcare staff. Data transmission between pumps is performed wirelessly and automatically, which optimizes space and time. Also, IV infusion pumps by arcomed come with big screens, really easy to read. Additionally, the pumps include extra features such as standby function or BMI control for overweight patients.

This method involves the administration of nutrients through a tube directly to the stomach or duodenum. This avoids the need for the patient to ingest food via the mouth and esophagus. Artificial feeding is used in instances when oral feeding is not possible. Nevertheless, the patient must have a functional digestive tract in order to absorb the nutrients correctly. There are two types of artificial feeding: enteral feeding and parenteral feeding.

Magnetic resonance imaging is a medical test or technique that uses imaging technology and radio frequency waves to obtain images of human anatomy. The main difference compared to traditional X-ray is that MRI does not use electromagnetic radiation – X-radiation. During one magnetic resonance imaging session the technicians may obtain hundreds of images – these can be stored digitally for assessment by healthcare professionals.

Why not involve the patient while s/he is awake in decisions about bolus drug delivery, based upon his/her pain perception? Consideration of this factor whilst maintaining the highest safety standards has been our priority in the development of our PCA/PCEA/PCS pumps.

An air-activated PCA bolus switch for the provision of analgesia in those patients fully conscious but unable to use their hands or upper limbs. The bolus switch includes an intelligent pressure sensor and disposable tube, with a filter and mouthpiece attached, which is kept close to the patient’s mouth using an articulated arm. To request a bolus, the patient simply has to introduce a continuous amount of air into the mouthpiece. It is used in connection with our infusion devices, enabling both programmed doses and doses requested by patients as well as supporting a variety of configurations.

In line with our All-in-One philosophy, arcomed pumps fully support bolus tocolysis protocols, offering pre-defined programs with varying recurrent bolus levels to be used in labor wards – improving infusion safety and simplicity.
