Product Description

Ph MP30/40/50/60 MMS module Module clip M8001-42307

Here is a detailed introduction to the MP30/40/50/60 MMS (Measurement and Monitoring Server) Module, a critical component in patient monitoring systems.

Overview: The "Brain" of the IntelliVue System

The MMS is not just a monitor; it is the central data acquisition, processing, and communication hub for the IntelliVue patient monitoring system (MP Series). It's the module that turns physiological sensors and cables into intelligent patient data.

Think of it this way:

The display (MP30/40/50/60) is the "face" – it shows the information.

The MMS module is the "brain" – it collects, calculates, trends, and manages all the data, and connects the entire system together.

It is a modular, software-driven component that slides into the back of compatible monitors.

Key Features and Functions

1. Multi-Parameter Monitoring: The MMS can acquire and process data from multiple connected devices simultaneously:

ECG & Arrhythmia: The core function, with sophisticated analysis, ST-segment monitoring, and arrhythmia detection.

SpO₂ (Pulse Oximetry): Oxygen saturation and pulse rate.

NIBP (Non-Invasive Blood Pressure): Automatic, manual, or stat measurements.

Temperature: From multiple probe types.

IBP (Invasive Blood Pressure): For up to two pressures (e.g., ART, CVP, PAP).

Respiratory (EtCO₂/Capnography, Respiration via impedance): Optional modules add advanced gas monitoring.

Cardiac Output (e.g., via PICCO or LiDCO): With specific interfaces.

2. Data Management & Trends:

Trending: Stores hours to days of vital sign data for graphical review.

Full Disclosure: A critical feature that stores high-resolution ECG waveforms (typically 72 hours) for retrospective analysis of transient events.

Patient Data Center: Acts as a server for patient lists, admit/discharge/transfer functions, and report generation.

3. Networking & Connectivity:

IntelliVue Network: The MMS enables the monitor to connect to the Clinical Information Center (CIC) or Information Center , allowing for:

Central Monitoring: Remote viewing of patient vitals at a central station.

Data Export: Sending trends, alarms, and waveforms to the Electronic Medical Record (EMR).

Clinical Alarms: Transmitting alarm events to nurse call systems or phones.

4. Alarm Management: The MMS handles complex, multi-parameter Smart Alarms , which can reduce false alarms by considering the context of multiple signals.

5. Modularity and Upgrades: The MMS concept allows for hardware and software upgrades. Newer MMS versions (e.g., from MP30 to MP60) offer more processing power, memory, and advanced features

Differences Between MP30/40/50/60 with MMS

The MP number primarily refers to the display and its intended use case , while the MMS defines the monitoring capabilities. However, they are paired for performance.

| Monitor Model | Typical Use Case | MMS Integration & Capabilities (Typical Pairing) |

| MP30 | Transport, Emergency, Low-acuity | Basic MMS. Core parameters (ECG, SpO₂, NIBP). Often single-channel IBP. Limited networking options. Compact and rugged. |

| MP40 | General Ward, Step-down, ER | Mid-range MMS. More comprehensive. Better networking, full disclosure, support for more parameters like dual IBP. |

| MP50 | ICU, CCU, High-acuity | Advanced MMS (MP5SC or similar). Full-featured. Supports all parameters, including advanced respiration (EtCO₂), cardiac output. Robust networking and data management. |

| MP60 | Central Station, ICU | The most powerful MMS (often MP6SC). Used as a Central Monitor when paired with a large display. Can display data from multiple bedside monitors (typically 4-16 patients) simultaneously. Has the highest processing power for complex multi-patient scenarios. |
