Nihon Kohden has announced the launch of its NK-HealthProtect Pop-up ICU Solution, an all-inclusive 16-bed system for the intensive care unit. Complete with 16 bedside monitors, a central station, networking and installation materials, the NK-HealthProtect Pop-up ICU Solution allows hospitals to add and deploy ICU beds in less than 40 minutes in the event of a disaster or a pandemic, such as COVID-19, when a surge in patients can overwhelm available resources.
NK-HealthProtect is Nihon Kohden’s line of advanced feature and product configurations designed to help health care providers during a public health threat or when care must be provided in non-traditional care areas.
Each NK-HealthProtect Pop-up ICU Solution consists of 16 Life Scope BSM-6300 Series bedside monitors with BSM-1700 transport monitors and a Life Scope Central Station (CNS-6801). Designed based on Nihon Kohden’s premium-as-standard philosophy, each Life Scope bedside monitor is fully appointed with all features – both standard and premium – unlocked and ready to use at a moment’s notice. This ensures the technology can be employed in the broadest range of acuity levels and allows clinicians to stabilize patients in place, which may reduce the need to transfer between departments – and ultimately the potential risk of serious infection.
The Life Scope Central Station is the heart of the Nihon Kohden Patient Monitoring System and provides comprehensive patient monitoring at a central location.
The solution also comes with all the necessary network and installation materials, accessories and starter kit of consumables, and access to Nihon Kohden University’s virtual training and clinical education materials.
Every bedside monitor comes complete with a 5-year standard warranty and the option to add damage protection under Nihon Kohden’s Performance Care Protection Plus service program. Renowned for its high quality, reliable products, Nihon Kohden also includes a two-year standard warranty with every Life Scope Central Station CNS-6801.
