In the current context of the pandemic, the protection of frontline healthcare professionals fighting the novel coronavirus has become a priority. To this end, GE Healthcare is now offering the possibility to position patients remotely from the scan control room with Remote Control Suite.
Exposure for health care workers is now limited because of the physical distance from the patient.
Remote Control Suite is designed to position patients remotely from the scan control room, allowing the technologist to remain isolated from the patient. This kit solution is suitable for sites with scanners operated by one or two persons:
A single radiographer can manage the entire workflow remotely, from exam start to end.
Where there are two radiographers, one remains at the console without entering the gantry room, and the other manages patient setup and assists with post-scan steps.
Remote Control Suite includes a control panel that is located near the CT console. The operator can perform all tasks, from welcoming the patient until the end of the exam, without entering the CT room. With a three-video monitoring system* installed in the gantry room, you can:
Both of these tools help the patients feel safe and reassured that they will be monitored and not left alone at any time during the process.
* Can be sold as separate option.
