Heightened Safety

High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC)

HFNC can extend the safe apnoeic oxygenation time to 30 minutes during induction. It offers clinicians easier intubation, especially for patients with poor oxygen saturation or difficult airways such as bariatric, paediatric, or critically ill.

Safe low flow by clinical assist toolkit

Plug-and-play multi-gas modules provide comprehensive breath-by-breath analysis of FiO₂, EtO₂, CO₂, N₂O, and auto-detection of five anaesthetic agents, as well as BIS and NMT.
The prediction feature helps clinicians predict the status of FiAA and EtAA for the next 20 minutes, as well as trace the status in the past 10 minutes. A full time trend of AA is available with MAC value.

Less is More

Automatic system check
- Various parts are checked automatically to ensure they functioning properly. Error corrections are graphically displayed.
- All checks are completed in 3.5 minutes. Scheduled system checks can save preparation time.
Customised profiles

Configuration profiles can be customised and loaded easily for different clinical scenarios or use requirements, including default values, screen layout and system configuration.
A clearer and brighter workspace
- Clear system status indicators provide clear prompts for certain scenarios to allow easy viewing of the current working mode, and help address malfunctions quickly.
- Intuitive user interface on rotatable 18.5” touchscreen monitor with illuminated APL valve in manual mode.

Greener Operating Rooms

The A8 employs an anaesthesia gas reduction strategy during surgery to create a better working environment for surgical staff and save anaesthetic agent costs.

Optimiser

Clinical decision-support tools including Optimiser, AA Prediction and ACA (Automatic Controlled Anaesthesia), can advise clinicians on the lower fresh gas flow

e-AGSS system

e-AGSS monitors the scavenging flow rate and indicates abnormalities; it automatically switches off when in standby to reduce energy consumption.

Integration and connectivity

Flexible integration between Mindray's clinical solutions and hospital information systems helps make workflows simpler and safer, and protect patients and healthcare technology investments.
