GE Patient Monitor B20/B40 Module with Four Parameter Three Parameter and 90 Days Warranty

The B20 Module serves as the central computing and display platform for GE Healthcare's CARESCAPE series of bedside patient monitors (including B650, B450, B250, and B850 models). This module functions as the core processing unit of the complete patient monitoring system.

• Primary Processing Unit: Executes the monitor's operating system and patient monitoring software
• Display Control: Drives high-resolution touchscreen display interface
• Data Integration Hub: Collects, processes, and displays data from all connected parameter modules
• Network Gateway: Manages connectivity to hospital networks and central stations via CARESCAPE Central
• Alarm Management: Centralizes and prioritizes alarms from all monitoring parameters

The B20 module is designed as a modular, removable component that installs into the monitor's main chassis.

• Expansion Junction Ports: 6-8 dedicated ports for connecting parameter modules (ECG, NIBP, SpO₂, etc.)
• Ethernet Port: Network connectivity interface
• USB Ports: For software updates, data export, and peripheral connections
• Video Out: External display connectivity
• Serial/Communication Ports: Auxiliary device connections (ventilators, infusion pumps)
• Power Input: Receives power from monitor's main supply

GE's B-series monitors utilize a sophisticated "host-based" modular architecture:

• B20 Module: Serves as the host platform
• Parameter Modules: Specialized plug-in units (ECG, NIBP, SpO₂, IBP, Temp, CO/EtCO₂)

The B20 module processes data but does not directly acquire physiological signals. Each parameter module operates as a self-contained measurement system communicating with the B20 via high-speed XJ ports.

Clinical Advantage: Healthcare facilities can customize monitor configurations by selecting appropriate parameter modules based on specific department requirements (ICU, OR, ER, general floor).
