The Xperius Point-
of-Care Ultrasound,
a joint effort from B.
Braun and Philips,
is a mobile system
that enhances nee-
dle visualization and
guidance during
ultrasound-guided
regional anesthesia.
An articulating arm lets the screen move with the practitioner,
and a touchscreen lets you increase or decrease depth with a
quick swipe.
This tray, from
Safecare Tools, would
be a nice convenience
in a lot of outpatient
centers that don't have
pharmacists, and
where anesthesia
providers come in in
the morning and load
up all their supplies for
the day. Designed by an anesthesiologist to help prevent medical
errors, it uses international color-coding standards and provides
an easy way to organize your workspace. It retails for $11.99, but
can be volume priced.
