Combines the company’s largest clinical imaging with patented advanced image clarity to provide greater diagnostic and procedural confidence for enhanced collaboration

FUJIFILM Sonosite, Inc.., a global leader in point-of-care ultrasound solutions (POCUS), has expanded its next-generation ultrasound portfolio with the launch of the new Sonosite LX premium system in Europe, featuring the company’s largest ultrasound image and monitors that extend, rotate and tilt to enable enhanced collaboration. between users in real time. The clinical view features touch controls to enable a simplified workflow, allowing the user to keep an eye on the image while making adjustments.

Designed for use with Sonosite LX and Sonosite PX, the company has also launched a new transesophageal transducer T8-3 which, with a new type of cardiac resuscitation examination, aims to make it easier for clinicians to introduce transesophageal ultrasound (TEU) into points of interest.

“Sonosite LX was inspired and designed with medical collaborators, with a focus on evolving pathways where ultrasound can support a quadruple goal at the point of care, under any circumstances,” said Rich Fabian, president and COO of FUJIFILM Sonosite. “We are excited to bring Sonosite LX to Europe, following its success in the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. This launch reflects an ongoing commitment to creating cutting-edge technology for doctors and their patients, technology backed by an ecosystem of solutions, services, support and training around the world”.

The Sonosite LX features a large, adjustable 21.3″ clinical display that extends, rotates, and tilts to accommodate a variety of patient bedside clinical settings. The system’s small footprint and adjustable display encourage collaboration, allowing for instantaneous sharing of images and information. real time with patients, other doctors, residents and other hospital staff.

The system is designed to include primary and secondary controls on clinical touch screens, including quick access to frequently used settings such as depth, gain, and measurement, to provide physicians with an efficient workflow. Sonosite LX is compatible with the newly redesigned range of transducers launched with the Sonosite PX ultrasound system which has dedicated test types to specific image studies and workflow optimization.

“FUJIFILM Sonosite has decades of experience developing and developing POCUS, and the Sonosite LX will be the ideal ultrasound machine designed by doctors themselves,” said Felipe Teran, MD, MSCE, FACEP, MD, MD, emergency room and founder of the TEU Resuscitation Project. , who uses ultrasound machines in his clinical practice. “Sonosite LX combines distinctive durability and thoughtful design with state-of-the-art image quality and adaptive displays that truly enhance our team’s experience.” “The large rotating display makes scanning easy and facilitates collaboration between our doctors at the bedside. Combined with the new T8-3 TEU probe, this system has become the perfect solution for our TEU resuscitation program,” added Dr. Teran.

Death from sudden cardiac arrest, considered a high priority public health problem, affects approximately 250,000 people in the European Union each year.1 Transesophageal echocardiography is very limited. With TEU, patients can benefit from more accurate and efficient chest compressions when evaluated by ultrasound, which can make the response to cardiac emergencies more effective. Doctors must act quickly to ensure images do not interfere with or delay compression, so having the right equipment and a view of the heart can be important. 23

FUJIFILM Sonosite developed a new type of cardiac resuscitation examination to address this need, leveraging the insights of the leading physicians at POCUS and the strength of Sonosite as the company that developed the on-site ultrasound category from the start.

Responding to customer needs, Sonosite developed the T8-3 transducer, which enables clinicians to provide TEUs with:

• Enable repeated cardiac imaging regardless of patient condition or body shape.

• Consists of a lightweight handle and flexible shaft for easy handling and a small tip for easy insertion.

• Requires low power consumption to maintain temperature while scanning.

• Offers the most advanced image clarity from FUJIFILM Sonosite.

The Sonosite LX, T8-3 transducer, and cardiac resuscitation test are currently available in the United States, Europe (United Kingdom, Ireland, Spain, Germany, France, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway), Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, with plans to launch in China and Japan soon.
