Medical equipment provide essential data to allow doctors and nurses across the world to detect and treat the human body for sickness, disease and injury. As technology and medical knowledge advance, so too does the equipment – with single medical devices now capable of performing multiple medical procedures and reducing clutter in the often-limited space of surgeries and hospitals. For example, the Getinge PulsioFlex is a modular platform with intelligent visualisation of advanced haemodynamic patient monitoring and can be adapted to each patient’s individual need at any time.

Getinge are now using REFLEKT ONE to create Augmented Reality appli­ca­tions to support doctors and hospital staff with trai­ning and confi­gu­ra­tion of their medical devices. Compa­tible with iOS , Pulsio­Flex AR guides staff and trai­nees through the setup of multiple Pulsio­Flex proce­dures. Using the smart­phone or tablet’s inbuilt camera, Pulsio­Flex AR projects crisp 3D visua­li­sa­tions of the tubes, plugs and connec­tions onto the real Pulsio­Flex device with step-by-step inst­ruc­tions and infor­ma­tion. Hospital staff can now quickly and effi­ci­ently confi­gure the device to specific patient needs in both static and dynamic scen­a­rios.
