TMI Launches Wireless Foot/Hand Switch For Mobile C-Arms And Cardiovascular Systems.

TransAmerican Medical Imaging (TMI) has announced the launch of the Spectre, a wireless foot switch and hand switch system for GE-OEC Series 9800 and 9900 mobile C-Arms, and the Philips Cardiovascular product line. 
Bob Woodward, TMI’s President, explaining the capabilities of Spectre: “The TMI Spectre replaces the hard-wired foot and hand switches found on GE-OEC Series 9800™ and 9900™ systems, and on Philips fixed Cardiovascular systems. The Spectre eliminates the most common problems found with wired controls: dirty and hard-to-clean cables on the floor, broken cables and it allows OR staff to operate a system from any convenient position near the X-Ray source. Since cables on the floor are also a tripping hazard, this new wireless technology is an effective safety improvement.”
The Spectre wireless system will operate within a radius of 50 feet from a connected system. Since it is not infra-red, it does not have to be “line of Sight”. It can also operate for 20 consecutive hours without the need to be charged. Recharging takes only 2-4 hours.
