GE/Marquette Solar 8000 Patient Monitor

High-acuity patient monitoring

The Solar® 8000i is a modular, high-acuity patient monitoring system that enhances clinical decision-making with a constant flow of quality information. It provides robust clinical standards including core vital signs, advanced cardiac care and ventilation evaluation for the OR, ICU and NICU care areas.

The Solar 8000i offers an extensive selection of modules – from the new CARESCAPE™ Patient Data Module and the Tram multiparameter module to individual parameter measurement modules – so you can quickly and cost-effectively adapt your monitor to a broad range of care needs. When using the Patient Data Module or TRAM module in conjunction with the Transport Pro display, a stationary monitoring setting is transformed into a portable monitoring solution, allowing critical data to remain with the patient throughout the hospital.

Clinical excellence

• Core vital signs include Marquette® ECG, DINAMAP® NIBP, the gold standard Masimo® SET SpO2 and Nellcor® SpO2.
• Additional parameters can be added as needed for use in specific care areas across the hospital: ER, OR, ICU, NICU and others.
• Additional capabilities when using the Patient Data Module include DINAMAP Super Stat, belly lead respiration detection, latest 12SL version and the new 12RL.

GE Healthcare Flexible viewing options

• Care-unit-specific remote controls provide easy one-button access to commonly used functions, while easy-to-use touch screens and consistent menu structures enhance usability.
• The vertical split-screen capability allows you to view two patients simultaneously without any loss of information on screen.
• Auto View on Alarm (AVOA XM) allows clinicians to remotely view alarms and other patient information on beds through out the care unit without requiring a separate server.

Enhanced connectivity

• The seamless, transport capabilities of the Patient Data Module or Tram multi-parameter module eliminate time spent disconnecting and reconnecting leads or re-zeroing devices.
• To streamline the workflow even more, the Solar 8000i connects to mission-critical networks and Centricity systems; patient data can be charted automatically, creating a more comprehensive patient record.
• Direct connection to the Unity Network® ID (UNID) provides third-party devices the ability to pass waveforms, data and alarm information to the Solar 8000i and on to the Unity Network.
