SAFETY INFUSION SYSTEM
FIGURE
The Outlook Safety Infusion System, offered by B. Braun Medical, Inc., is an I.V. administration safety system designed to help guard against medication errors. It uses bar codes to impact multiple points within the drug delivery process: from label generation, to patient-medication matching, to automatic infusion pump programming. This helps hospitals to ensure the "right" patient is receiving the "right" drug in the "right" dose.

ELECTRONIC THERMOMETER
FIGURE
Welch Allyn, Inc., introduced two new electronic thermometers, the SureTemp Plus 690 and 692. Researchers designed both to offer more accurate oral, axillary, and rectal temperature readings on patients of all ages, complete with an easy-to-read LCD display with icons that clearly communicate information to health care workers. An improved user interface and ergonomic shape with rubber grips make taking fast, reliable temperatures more convenient. Interchangeable, self-contained oral/axillary and rectal probe wells and probes reduce the risk of cross-contamination and provide for easy cleaning.
