Spacelabs Healthcare is introducing the mCare 300 Vital Signs Monitor, for instant access to essential patient data. The portable unit monitors ECG, respiration, pulse oximetry (SpO2), non-invasive blood pressure and temperature, and common functions are available with just a single touch of Spacelabs' innovative touchscreen interface. Invasive pressure and end-tidal CO2 (EtCO2) are optional parameters.

The mCare 300 monitor has a 10.4 (26.4 cm) color touchscreen LCD, displaying four waveforms and up to seven parameters. With one battery, it weighs less than 9 lbs. (4.08 kg) and can operate for at least four hours. For extended transport applications, batteries can be exchanged without loss of power or interruption to monitoring.
