76th day of attachment
Today, i went to Drager Medical which is now under drager and siemens company with Mr Sin and my fellow colleague for one-day training for monitoring, Gamma XL and Delta XL patient monitors. They are quite similar to siemens' patients monitor in terms of functions and design. Gamma XL and Delta XL patient monitors are slightly more advanced compared to siemens.
Delta XL only able to display parameters and waveforms after the various accessories are inserted to the ports while Gamma XL will display those automatically. Both of the monitors allow the user to transfer data from monitor to monitor in the central system which means there is a common network throughout the wards. There are 5 Delta XL in Alexandra Hospital and so far i did not get to see one of them. You can have another monitor for displaying trend while another displaying the various waveforms and parameters. It also able to give a very detailed diagnostic waveforms of ECG that some doctors required.
The trainer, Dave Koh from Drager medical who work under drager for more than 3 years. He demostrated the various functions and service mode to us. More of technical area as i can say. He also told us a few common problems for these monitor. We got the chance to see the disassembly of the monitors and the trainees were privileged to assemble the parts back. More hands on involved for the afternoon. Gamma XL seems more difficult to assemble it back as some of the connectors are fragile while Delta XL only have to dissemble when the main board or the accessories port are damaged.
He also demostrated the preventive maintenance procedures in order for our better understanding .
