Protection from head to toe
Stryker's T7 helmet can be tailored to each user, keeping them cool
and comfortable without sacrificing barrier protection. It's billed as
the vendor's lightest and quietest helmet to date, with a noise
reduction of 40% compared to its previous model. With EVA foam
that conforms to the wearer's head, a lighter frame and a cooler fit,
the company says T7 addresses both balance and ergonomics.
Through its dual adjustment knob, users can precisely control the
helmet's height and width, while an improved center of gravity is
said to relieve neck strain. Stryker also introduced T7plus, a line of
surgical hoods and togas, which boasts breathable material that
allows users to remain cool while providing AAMI level 4 protection.

Trap Polyps With Ease
The ProTrap Luma polyp specimen col-
lection device from Micro Tech Endoscopy
is designed for safety, efficiency and
value. The system, which allows for the
quick removal of polyps through an endo-
scope's channel, includes a collection
hose, trap body and tray. A one-inch
glowstick and built-in magnifying window
provides easy visualization of the speci-
men. Once polyps are entrapped in the
tray, providers can remove and place it
directly in a collection jar, eliminating
dropping, loss or damage risks associat-
ed with handling. Additional trays can be
used to retrieve multiple polyps without
loss of suction.

Wireless Vital Signs Monitoring
The Caretaker patient monitoring device
features a finger sensor that measures con-
tinuous blood pressure, heart rate, blood
oxygen level, respiration rate, ECG, core
body temperature and end-tidal CO2.
Secure software allows for the transmission
of HIPAA-compliant data to electronic med-
ical records or cloud portals for remote
access to a patient's real-time physiological
status. The device can be readied for use in
minutes and travels with patients, which
reduces staff burden and allows for uninter-
rupted, efficient care.
