The vPad-Report app is available as an upgrade for existing users and will be incorporated into all new vPad products.
In 2022, the vPad platform can integrate with more CMMS systems. The newest integrations added are Nuvolo, Medusa and FSI.
“With all of our CMMS integrations, users can download their asset information, work orders and test procedures directly from the CMMS software onto the tablet using our app,” Liu said. “Once they’re finished doing their tests, all they need to do is select the test reports and upload the data right back on the CMMS. All of this is done right on the vPad tablet itself, so you don't have to go back to your PC and retype all your test results.”
Fluke Biomedical
Fluke Biomedical is planning to update its OneQA cloud-based test and workflow automation software, which automates the test process for electrical safety testing and performance testing of defibrillators and ventilators, from starting the test to capturing and storing results.
Later this year, the software will incorporate Fluke Biomedical’s ProSim 8 patient simulators to accommodate the preventive maintenance of patient monitors.
“That will be big, particularly with children's hospitals, because they are extremely intensive,” said Terry Harris, SaaS software healthcare sales executive for Fluke Biomedical.
OneQA is also expanding its CMMS integrations to be more seamless and work with a wider variety of systems globally.
“The software team has been working hard on the integration side, building software competency as well as building deeper partnerships,” Harris said.
On the hardware side Fluke has expanded the range and accuracy for three anesthetic agents — isoflurane, desflurane and sevoflurane — with its VAPOR Anesthesia Tester.
“We've expanded those ranges and have a stated accuracy to cover a customer request which was to really be able to test all the way up to the highest part of the range,” said Michael Raiche, senior portfolio manager for Fluke Biomedical.
The company has also updated its ULT800 product line to add a TC-ZIF adaptor and a flexible conductivity probe, to keep up with the additional TEE probes that are coming to market.
The company has also added additional intrauterine pressure (IUP) cables that will allow ProSim patient simulators to work with some GE and Philips fetal monitors.
Life Spark Medical
Life Spark Medical Is preparing for the full release of its SmartTank capnometer and anesthesia gas monitor tester.
The released version of the device is slightly smaller than the previous iteration being beta tested by customers, said Darryl Zitting, co-founder of Life Spark Medical.
