Zenition 30 C-arm offers more autonomy to help alleviate staff shortages
Royal Philips has launched its Zenition 30 image-guided therapy mobile C-arm system, the latest addition to the Zenition mobile C-arm series.
The Zenition 30 is designed to give surgeons a greater level of control, enabling them to work more autonomously. By reducing dependency on support staff, Philips says the system helps alleviate the staff shortages faced by many hospitals.
“Based on our Zenition platform’s proven ease of use and workflow efficiency, the new Zenition 30 offers a unique combination of personalised control and image clarity to enhance the speed and accuracy of decision making for a range of clinical procedures at a price point that meets today’s economic and business goals,” said general manager image-guided therapy systems Mark Stoffels.
Zenition 30 offers versatility for a range of clinical and surgical procedures, including orthopaedics, trauma, spine and pain management. Featuring latest-generation flat panel detector technology, advanced imaging algorithms and personalised user profiles, the system is said to deliver superior image quality, dose efficiency and workflow customisation. From the point at which the surgeon logs on, the system automatically adjusts to the preferred operating settings, contributing to fewer manual adjustments. In addition to rapid set-up and protocol selection, the Zenition 30 offers surgeons greater control over C-arm positioning during surgical procedures.
In independent usability studies involving clinicians who were offered hands-on experience of the system in simulated environments, Philips reports that 95 per cent said they believed its enhanced surgeon control would allow them to work independently. In addition, 84 per cent believed that the Zenition 30’s personalised image quality profiles meant fewer images might be needed during a procedure because the first image already incorporates their preferred settings.
