Features
Easy to use, with a positive impact on patient safety
The edge-to-edge glossy, high-resolution touch screen display shows connectivity status and data from connected devices, making it easy to view and manage at a glance. Contextualizing data with patient ID, device ID, location and time helps to increase accuracy.
Focus on security
The Capsule Neuron offers secure wi-fi connectivity to your existing hospital network. Data-in-motion is encrypted directly at the bedside, protecting sensitive information. The USB ports are compatible with USB locking systems.
Support multiple clinical workflows
Available in three configurations, varying the number and type of medical device connectors (up to nine, including a compact configuration for mobile workflows), the Capsule Neuron is ideal for critical care, non-critical care, transport and mobile workflows. The Capsule Neuron transforms existing spot check monitors into connected solutions to automate vital signs capture and documentation through Chart Xpress. A backup battery allows for up to 7.5 hours of data cache to limit data loss due to network or power loss. The device offers flexible mounting options including wall mount and setting on top of devices, carts and roll stands.
