Philips Tempus Pro Monitor

The Philips Tempus Pro Monitor focuses on the needs of emergency medical services (EMS) personnel when they are delivering treatment in prehospital settings or other critical healthcare situations. Its rugged, lightweight construction combined with intuitive functionality allow the Philips Tempus Pro Monitor to be on the front lines of almost any medical situation. When the Tempus Pro Monitor is powered up with the Philips Tempus LS manual defibrillator, the units automatically pair up, and the two devices combined form the Philips Tempus ALS system.

Scalable and Expandable

The Philips Tempus Pro Monitor acts as a general purpose device that can be upgraded depending on the situations that emergency healthcare providers typically encounter. Its unique capability as a scalable platform makes the Tempus Pro Monitor unmatched among medical monitoring systems.

Not only can defibrillation capabilities be added with the pairing of the Philips Tempus LS, but the Tempus Pro Monitor can also act as a video laryngoscope imager via USB and vital sign monitor. Medical professionals can customize and add accessories as patient care requirements and budgets dictate.

Tempus Pro Monitor: Trusted Partner

Portability is of the utmost importance since first responders might have to cross long distances or unstable ground. The Philips Tempus Pro Monitor weighs only 7 pounds, making it easily transportable along with the Tempus Pro LS and other necessary lifesaving equipment.

The Philips Tempus Pro Monitor is also highly durable, with an IP66 rating making it ready for use even in the most daunting conditions. IP is an abbreviation for Ingress Protection, which is a measurement of how well a device resists infiltration by foreign material. The first number represents the protection against solid objects. The number 6 is the highest rating, indicating that not even dust can infiltrate the device. The second number denotes the protection against infiltration by water, which for this device is a 6 out of a possible score of 9.

The monitor features a 6.5-inch color display that’s easily readable even in daylight, and all of the Monitor’s functions can be controlled via touch screen menus that can be operated with gloved hands. Patient data can be reviewed in a variety of ways, including 4 waveform color display. Its screen is even night vision compatible with an integrated tactical switch for use in hostile situations, including military applications.

Additional features include a 4.3-inch thermal printer for providing hard copies of patient monitoring data. The integrated 3.2 megapixel camera can record detailed images for addition to the patient’s record of care for later review. The rechargeable lithium ion battery provides over ten hours of battery life with the screen brightness at sixty percent or up to 14 hours of battery life with battery saving mode activated. With this extended battery life, emergency personnel don’t have to be concerned about their equipment failing during a long shift or at the moment when they need it most.

Portable Data Hub

The Tempus Pro Monitor sets a new industry standard for on-site data management. First responders have total control over how much data is collected and how it gets shared. The onboard record of care can be augmented with images taken from the device’s camera, and all data is encrypted and shared using secure methods. Two-way communication and real-time data transfer allow emergency medical attendants to relay information straight to ER personnel.

Patient data can also be exported to USB or integrated into ePCR software.

Philips has partnered with Masimo, a worldwide leader and innovator in the areas of sensor and signal processing solutions, to provide the latest breakthroughs in the field of vital sign monitoring.

Users of the Tempus Pro Monitor can collaborate and share data quickly and effectively with the Philips IntelliSpace Corsium. It’s a web-based software platform that allows for real time data sharing and review. Physicians and hospital-based care providers can make diagnoses and care recommendations that can be relayed directly to the Philips Tempus Monitor before the patient ever gets to a hospital.

Live and historical patient data from multiple Tempus Pro devices can be collected and viewed securely via web browser or on smartphones, tablets, or PCs without any additional software or applications. IntelliSpace Corsium can receive data from the Tempus Pro Monitor using a multitude of transmission methods, such as Wi-Fi, ethernet, and local cellular networks. Users can rest assured that data transmission remains secure and reliable even in situations when communication is not ideal.

The Last Word in Patient Monitoring

With the ability to also provide video laryngoscopy for airway maintenance, ultrasound, and telemedicine, the Philips Tempus Pro Monitor is the best solution for real-time patient monitoring and diagnostics. No other portable field monitor has the vast array of patient monitoring options while simultaneously being able to expand to become the focal point of a single lifesaving system.

The Tempus Pro Monitor is durable, reliable, and ready for the most complex operations. Caregivers have more time to perform their jobs and not be held back or distracted by their equipment’s limitations.
