Ingen公司的氧气监测设备推向市场

一种新型氧气监测设备，设计用于提高住院患者接受任何来源氧气治疗的安全性、可靠性和精确性。

该设备叫做OxyView，是一种重量很轻的充满气体的量规，附着在颈部的气管之上。该设备可以提醒护理人员氧气气流的速度，同时可以及时提示在氧气输送来源与患者之间，是否存在任何气体泄漏或者错误。

Ingen技术公司的首席执行官兼主席Scott Sand解释说：“该设备十分简单，当前医院中没有任何能与OxyView相竞争的同类产品，当前医院工作人员在确保输入患者体内的气流速度方面缺乏足够的保证。在当今的医疗产业中，玩忽职守和缺乏责任心是一个严重的问题，OxyView则可以提高安全性，减少设备故障所带来的不可靠性。

OxyView的一种同类产品是OxyAlert，可以提供无线、远程见识氧气输送系统。该公司同时还生产Secure Balance并推向市场，这种医疗产品系列为医生和为患者提供服务的医院提供平衡的和全方位的防护方案。

Oxygen-Monitoring Device
 
A new oxygen-monitoring device is designed to enhance the safety, assurance, and accuracy of hospitalized patients being administered oxygen from any source.

Called OxyView, the device is a lightweight pneumatic gauge that is attached to the oxygen tubing just below the neck. It informs the nursing staff of the oxygen flow rate at the site of the patient and can also immediately indicate the presence of any leak or inaccuracy between the delivery source and the patient.

“As simple as it sounds, there is nothing in the hospital industry presently that competes with OxyView,” explained Scott Sand, CEO and chairman of Ingen Technologies, Inc. (Calimesa, CA, USA; www.ingen-tech.com), which developed OxyView. “Currently, the hospital staff assumes that the flow rate near the patient is sufficient without any verification. In today’s medical industry, where malpractice and liability are serious issues, OxyView enhances safety and can reduce liabilities associated with equipment failure.”

A companion product to OxyView is OxyAlert, which provides wireless, remote monitoring of oxygen-delivery systems. The company also makes and markets Secure Balance, a medical product line for doctors and hospitals that provides patient services for balance and fall-prevention programs.
