Life Scope A provides anesthetic gas monitoring and flexible parameters together with high performance features similar to Life Scope P and Life Scope i. This makes Life Scope A ideal for the OR, ICU and CCU.
Five multi-connectors: When you plug a different transducer or sensor, such as IBP, temperature, CO, CO2 or FiO2, into a multi-connector, it automatically detects the type of parameter and starts measuring. No extra setup or different modules when changing the parameter. This feature provides cost savings as well as more efficient monitoring.
Anesthetic gas monitoring: CO2, O2, N2O with automatic identification of Halothane, Enflurane, Isoflurane, Sevoflurane and Desflurane
12.1-inch color TFT LCD display with easy touch screen operation
10 waveform traces including 3 ECG waveforms
Optional interface for connection to external equipment (currently BIS monitor and ventilator)
Large data storage capacity and powerful review for waveforms, alarm history, arrhythmia and ST files, and trend data
Networking
Optional network card allows Ethernet networking with LS-NET Life Scope monitor network to send waveforms and numerical data to the central monitor.
If you attach an optional wireless LAN station and access point or an optional ZS-900P transmitter to the monitor, you can compose a wireless network system.

Revolutionary PWTT technology This monitor incorporates a new parameter, PWTT (pulse wave transit time), which can have correlation with blood pressure. The monitor continuously calculates PWTT from ECG and SpO2. During periodic NIBP measurement, if PWTT exceeds the threshold it triggers NIBP measurement. This increases the chance to detect sudden change in blood pressure between periodic NIBP measurements.
The blood pressure measuring technology in this monitor uses Nihon Kohden's patented PWTT technology (US patent no. 5564427, other patents pending).
