Holter MonitorsTypes of Holter Recorders

Holter Monitors record the heart's electrical activity over an extended period of time. Doctor’s give them to patients to diagnose and monitor treatment of heart arrhythmias (irregular heartbeat). These devices function similarly to an EKG (electrocardiogram); however, they provide longer monitoring than a standard EKG, which only records the heartbeat for a few seconds.

Small and portable, Holter Monitors are worn during normal daily activity. This allows for the detection of heart rhythm problems that may not occur all the time. Wires connect the device to sensors (called electrodes) that are stuck to the patient’s chest using sticky patches. These sensors pick up the heart's electrical signals, and the monitor records heart rhythm.

Types of Holter Monitors

Wireless Holter Monitors

  • Used to detect heart rhythm problems that don't occur often.
  • Longer recording time than standard Holter monitors.
  • Records your heart's electrical activity for a preset amount of time.
  • Uses a cell phone to wirelessly transmit data to the doctor's office. This happens automatically at certain times.
  • Wires are still used to connect the device to the sensors stuck to the patient’s chest.
  • Patient must remember to write down the time of symptoms, so the doctor can match it to the heart rhythm recording.
  • Battery must be changed every few days.

Event Monitors

  • Only records when symptoms occur. Many event monitors need to be started when symptoms are felt.
  • Usually smaller than holter monitors since they store less data.

Postevent Recorders

  • The smallest recorder: wear like a wristwatch or carry in pocket.
  • Does not attach to chest with wires.
  • Start recorder when symptoms occur; however, it may miss heart rhythm problems during the symptoms.

Presymptom Memory Loop Recorders

  • The size of a cell phone, these recorders connect to the chest with wires.
  • Constantly recording and erasing data. Erasing stops when symptoms begin, and show a few minutes of data before, during, and after the symptom occurs.
  • Allows doctors to see very brief changes in heart rhythm.

Autodetect Recorders

  • The size of the palm of your hand, these recorders connect to the chest with wires.
  • Automatically detects and records abnormal heart rhythms and sends the data to the doctor’s office.

Implantable Loop Recorders

  • Used when other event monitors cannot provide enough data.
  • Inserted under the skin on patient’s chest. No wires or sensors are used.
  • Can be activated manually or automatically.

Dopplers Make it Easy to Hear Baby's Heartbeat

As an obstetrician you know that your patients want to be able to hear their baby's heartbeat as soon as possible. Dopplers were made to do just this; they are designed to detect the slightest possible heartbeat so that not only are your patients happy, you will be too. These devices have been in use for many decades and while the concept has not changed very much over the years, the technology has continued to improve.

Where once Dopplers were only able to detect the heartbeat of a well – defined heart, today's models can detect the smallest heartbeat: to help you keep track of the health of every new baby during its development. Not only will your patients appreciate the fact that you can tell them about the health of their baby, your job of tracking its development will be much easier, a fact that makes owning several of them for your office very important.

You will find a wide selection of Dopplers available at the Medical Device Depot at the lowest possible prices.

Medical Device Depot – Autoclave

Why You need and Autoclave in your Office

One of the biggest problems faced by any medical facility whether it is a small family doctor's office or a full operating theater in a major hospital is infection control. During the course of the average day, you use a variety of different types of medical equipment on your patients. If you do not have a way to sterilize this equipment properly, you put your patients at risk by spreading infectious germs from one patient to another. An autoclave can stop this risk dead in its tracks by providing you with the means to sterilize all of your small equipment.

You will find that while a hospital might use a very large autoclave capable of holding large quantities of equipment at any one time, you can get a much smaller unit that can be set on a counter in your offices. These units do the exact same job and are just as efficient as the bigger units at eliminating infections; they are just more suited to your needs and are far more affordable.

The Medical Device Depot has the perfect size autoclave for your office; choose from a wide range of models at prices low enough to fit in with most budgets.

Medical Device Depot – Blood Pressure Monitor

One of the first things any medical student is taught is how to use a blood pressure monitor. Every patient that is seen in the doctor's office or the emergency room has their blood pressure taken. This simple reading provides vital information on their overall status. There are many different styles of sphygmomanometer on the market ranging from very simple mechanical cuffs with a pump valve to fully digital versions that can take blood pressure readings as well as the patient's pulse. Many of these new digital models also have a memory to allow you to record the information for entry into the patient's physical records later.

No medical office should be without at least one blood pressure monitor; in fact most facilities require their staff to have their own as well as the ones that belong in the office. As such you will find that these devices are available in a wide variety of styles and price ranges to suit most needs.

At the Medical Device Depot you will find a complete selection ranging from a simple mechanical blood pressure monitor to the latest digital mercury sphygmomanometer, all at very affordable prices.

Medical Device Depot – EKG

EKG Machines Have Grown Smaller

The original EKG machine was big enough to fill an entire room and was only marginally useful. Today's electrocardiograph machine is far more sensitive and often small enough that you can carry it in your hand or on a small cart. These machines are far more accurate than at any time in the past, not only can they record a patient's heart rhythms, these machines can record multiple sets of recordings. Not only can they do this for several patients, but they can organize each patient's information allowing the doctor to compare the results and see if there are any differences.

These new EKG machines can be connected to a printer or to a PC so that you can store more records and comply with the latest government standards regarding computerized medical records storage. If you have not replaced your equipment, the time has never been better. New units are far more affordable than ever.

You will find a wide selection of EKG machines available at the Medical Device Depot ready to ship at the lowest prices possible.
