Philips Introduces A First-Of-Its Kind Multi-Measurement Module

Press Release


The Philips IntelliVue MMS X2 is an enhanced multi-measurement module that can be used with any compatible Philips IntelliVue patient monitor.   Once detached from the host monitor, it is an independent, battery-operated transport monitor with its own display, alarm function and the ability to store up to 24 hours of patient information.   As soon as it is reconnected to another IntelliVue host monitor, the MMS X2 behaves like a conventional multi-measurement module, with stored patient monitoring data being automatically uploaded into the new monitor without interruption in monitoring.   If equipped with wireless networking capability, the MMSX2 can also transmit data directly to an IntelliVue Information Center, allowing clinicians to have access to a complete continuous record of patient monitoring data wherever the patient may go ? from emergency room to operating theatre to ICU and recovery.
The MMS X2 is available with up to 12-leads of ECG with multi-lead arrhythmia and ST segment analysis, respiration, SpO2 (choice of advanced technologies) and non-invasive blood pressure, plus a choice between invasive blood pressure and temperature, or mainstream and sidestream EtCO2.
In addition, the new product provides the ability to have a dedicated monitor for every patient that comes into an emergency room or other area of the hospital.   The patient is able to remain connected to the MMS X2 for the duration of care with no gaps in the monitoring record, even when attaching the MMS X2 to a high-end IntelliVue or during transport episodes through to discharge; this provides greater continuity of care and more confident assessment of treatment.   
The MMS X2 meets Philips? rigorous environmental standards in manufacturing and use, making it a sustainable product.
