Our brand spanking new monitors have arrived! After much deliberation we decided to replace the Likepak 12s that we had been using since they came out. Our decision was to switch to the Phillips MRX monitor. I'm actually quite excited.
The new monitors will have NBP and ETCO2 which is an upgrade from the Lifepaks. All things aside Phillips can provide a better level of service compared to Lifepak. Which was the driving force behind us giving them a chance. Plus you can't beat the on screen 12 lead view.
After taking the mandatory training and some online stuff, they are here for our enjoyment. Through the weekend they are sitting in our lounges for us to play with and become slightly proficient with. I'm sure the first full arrest will be interesting, but the machine just seems so easy to use. Granted as an EMT my over zealous attitude might not be shared by many medics who've been glued to Lifepak for years.
I look forward to getting home after a long day at work and spending a little quality time with my new "partner." And as the night is going I'll get in late enough so I'll be alone, left to my own devices, insert sinister laugh.
