Olympus this week announced it launched the DVM-B2 Digital Video Monitor for single-use endoscopes.
The DVM-B2 is designed as an all-in-one video processor and monitor for use with single-use endoscopes for bronchoscopy and ENT, including the H-SteriScope Single-use Flexible Bronchoscopes and the E-SteriScope Single-use Flexible Rhinolaryngoscopes.
Vathin is the manufacturer of the monitor, and Olympus is the distributor.
Olympus’ launch expands the company’s single-use portfolio to give healthcare providers more choice in the patient care pathway. The system allows providers to have more flexibility in their endoscopy solutions while patients can benefit from expanded sites of care and availability of on-demand treatment options, according to the company.
“We are very excited to offer our customers new workflow and productivity solutions with the DVM-B2 Digital Video Monitor,” said Swarna Alcorn, Business Unit Vice President for Respiratory at Olympus America. “The launch of another product in our single-use portfolio demonstrates our commitment to the hybrid approach, which helps physicians access the right scope, for the right patient, in the right situation.”
The DVM-B2 Digital Video Monitor features a lightweight and portable 12.1-inch monitor for ease of care in critical or emergent solutions. It can be attached bedside to an IV pole or mounted on a nearby cart.
Other features include portability with more than four hours of battery life; connectivity to external devices through HDMI, USB, WiFi or ethernet cords; and usability through touchscreen controls that are designed for ease of use.
Additionally, the DVM-B2 Digital Video Monitor supports streamlined content management and data sharing platforms, such as the Olympus nCare recorder and VaultStream server, for use with the E-SteriScope Single-use Flexible RhinoLaryngoscopes.
