Four Patient Monitoring Accessories Your Healthcare Facility Needs
If you have invested in patient monitoring equipment for your healthcare facility, you will need to buy a wide range of accessories to help provide the best care for your patients. Here is a list of four essential accessories you should buy for your clinic:
Roll stands – Roll stands are ideal for enhancing the portability of your medical monitors, making it easier to share a single patient monitor among several doctors or rooms within your facility. Be sure to scope out your options when you are buying roll stands, as you may want to invest in one that allows you to hook up IV bags or multiple monitors.
Wall mounts – If your exam room is getting cramped, why not put your patient monitoring equipment on the wall instead? Mounting patient monitoring equipment to the wall not only can increase the floor space in your clinic, but it can also make your medical equipment more visible to your care staff.
SpO2 sensors – There are multiple types of SpO2 sensors available, including finger clips, toe clips, and ear clips, so be sure to buy some of each so you can take care of pediatric patients, adults of all sizes, and patients who have had amputations.
Blood pressure cuffs – Since blood pressure monitoring is common in almost all medical settings, it is important to have a variety of blood pressure cuffs available, as not all of your patients will be able to use the conventional cuff that was originally packaged with your blood pressure machine. Using the wrong size cuff can mean cutting off blood flow to extremities and obtaining inaccurate data
When you buy any patient monitoring accessories, make sure you consult with your product manuals to ensure you buy the right items. Also, ensure that all products are CE certified or ISO approved, so they will meet your State Board of Health’s auditing requirements.
