Verathon BladderScan Prime Features
The BladderScan Prime portable 3D ultrasound instrument redefines accuracy and makes ease-of-use easier than ever. It’s a workhorse device that reduces downtime and raises the quality of care, delivering long-lasting value. It supports evidence-based catheter management, along with a consistent, comfortable assessment of patients. To promote long and uninterrupted service, reliability is built into every Bladderscan Prime system . In the event of a drop, Prime has a built‑in mechanical diagnostic to confirm it’s still working properly. NeuralHarmonics enables more accurate measurements than conventional two-dimensional ultrasound. In bladder volume measurements, a unique second harmonic differentiates the bladder, urine, and hypo-echogenic regions, such as the uterus. This results in a better analysis and a more accurate measurement from the device. With one button press, VMODE® technology acquires multiple scan planes to produce a 3-dimensional quantification of the bladder. Based on this quantification, the instrument automatically calculates and displays urinary bladder volume.
