The SureSigns VS3 is a portable patient monitor. The SureSigns VS3 can be used as a bedside monitor used for a variety of hospital uses; general ward use, emergency department triage, out-patient surgery, urged care. The mounting system can be used where ever vital signs are needed. The SureSigns is a monitor that can measure 3-5 lead ECG, NIBP, SpO2, and patient temperatures in patients of all ages, from neonates to adults. The unit comes with a large 8.4-inch color display that is easy to read. It can hold up to 96 hours of trending data and up to 400 patient records.

Because the SureSign VS3 user interface is intuitive and easy to use, you can focus on what matters most - patient safety and comfort. The full-color screen contains large, easy-to-read numerics, a scrollable list of stored patient records, and an optional SpO2 waveform display. The innovative pop-up screens, fixed keys, and Icon-based menu provide quick access to frequently used features.
Available SureSigh VS3 measurements include blood pressure, pulse oximeters, pulse rate, and temperature. Designed for a wide variety of care environments, the SureSign is suitable for the general care ward, emergency department triage, out-patient surgery, urgent care centers, or anywhere else you need basic vital signs monitoring.
SpO2 is a measurement of oxygen saturation in the blood that uses an optical spectrophotometry technique. It is based on the differences in the absorption of red and infrared light by oxygenated and de-oxygenated hemoglobin.
A pulse oximeter passes red and infrared light into an arteriolar bed and measures changes in light absorption during the pulsatile cycle. The light sources are red and infrared light-emitting diodes (LEDs). A photo diode provides detection.
The identify the oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin, the SureSigns VS3 vital signs monitor uses the pulsatile nature of the arterial flow. During systole, a new pulse of arterial blood enters the vacuolar bed, and both blood volume and light absorption increase. During diastole, blood volume and light absorption reach their lowest point. The measurement is based on the difference between the maximum and minimum absorption, focusing on the pulsatile arterial blood. In addition to the oximetry function, the measurement can also provide the heart rate.
The SureTemp temperature module is a fully integrated µProcessor-based thermistor thermometer that takes oral, axillary, and rectal temperatures for all patient populations. The VS3 provides two types of temperature measurements; predictive and monitored.
In Predictive mode, the monitor measures the patient's temperature for approximately 4 seconds for oral measurements and approximately 16 seconds for axillary or rectal measurements. The monitor then displays the final measurement.
If the monitor cannot get a reading after 1 minute, it automatically switches to monitored mode.
In Monitored mode, the monitor measures the patient's temperature continuously and displays the temperature in the numeric pane as long as the probe is in contact with the patient. Use Monitored mode only when a situation prevents accurate predictive measurement.
Note: Temperature measurements taken in Monitored mode are not saved to a patient record.
Pressure data is converted to digital format and conveyed to the processor. The NBP pump uses an oscillometric method that employs stepwise pressure deflation. Pump software eliminates most ambient noise and motion interference. Applications are neonatal, pediatric, and adult patients. The blood pressure range is Systolic, 30-255 mmHg and diastolic, 15-220 mmHg. Accuracy is +/-5 mmHg, which standard deviation no greater than 8 mmHg.
NBP processing uses an oscillometric technique to provide needed measurements at selected intervals. This technique uses an inflatable sphygmomanometer cuff similar to those used by clinicians in routine measurements. A motorized pump inflates the cuff to approximately 160 mmHg (adult mode) initially, at which point the pressure effectively stops the flow of blood. Then, under monitor control, the pressure in the cuff is gradually reduced, while a pressure transducer detects the pressure and transmits the parameter signal to the NBP input circuitry. As the pressure is reduced, blood flows in the previously occluded artery and changes the measurements made by the transducer. The point at which oscillation increases sharply is defined as systolic pressure. As the cuff continues to deflate the oscillation amplitude increases to a maximum, then decreases. The peak oscillation amplitude is defined as the mean arterial pressure. The point at which the system detects a rapid decrease in oscillation is defined as the diastolic pressure.
Soma Tech Intl offers Philips SureSign VS3 Monitor up to 50% below OEM prices with the same service and warranty as new. The Philips SureSign VS3 is not only technically refurbished but also cosmetically refurbished to make it work and look like new. When the refurbishing process starts on the vital signs monitor, it is carefully inspected and tested by our own in-house biomedical engineers that are highly skilled and certified to work on monitors. If necessary, parts are replaced to make sure that all aspects of the Philips SureSign VS3 is functioning properly. Once everything is in working order, the unit is calibrated back to the original engineering manufacturer specifications. This ensures that the unit is working the same way that it originally left the manufacturer. After the Philips SureSign VS3 monitor is working like new it undergoes a special cosmetic restoration process.
