There are some types of medical equipment designed for more general use in a wide range of different medical settings, while other devices are very specific in their application. For a top quality option in an EKG machine that is small enough to be used in a single physician’s practice but durable enough to be used in a major hospital, consider the GE MAC 1200.
There are several benefits of this compact and highly accurate and efficient EKG machine. By considering these benefits and comparing them to other machines at the same price, it is easy to determine why so many hospitals, clinics, urgent care facilities and medical offices make this their go-to option.
Ease of Use
One of the most challenging issues with new technology and having various types of devices in a medical facility is staff competence and confidence in using the equipment accurately and correctly. With the GE MAC 1200, this is a relatively minor concern as it is designed with user ease and efficiency in mind.
Controls are all located on the front bottom of the device below the display screen. Everything operates with simple one-button touch for ease of printing, storing information and even running an analysis on the data input into the system.
This EKG offers four different user-defined parameters or fields, which allows the staff to set up the device for commonly used testing and analysis. This is a simple, time-saving option that makes routine testing faster and more efficient with lower risk of user error.
Gender Specific
Unlike some of the older equipment, the GE MAC 1200 offers a 12SL gender interpretation feature. When the medical professional uses the device, there will be a prompt to enter the patient gender, providing a highly accurate reading with each patient.
Reporting Options
The MAC 1200 offers a display screen for real-time measurements and immediate review by the physician or technician. Additionally, the unit will print standard report formats on full sized paper for immediate results and information. When longer term storage of records is required in hard copy format, archivist paper can also be used to print results.
Security
As with all electronic equipment used in record keeping and data sharing, the MAC 1200 by GE is fully compliant with all Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) requirements. The system comes complete with an optional clinical trial data guard and full protection of all electronic records produced through the device.
Versatile, compact and with the ability to connect with the EMS system, the MAC 1200 is an EKG machine that is a great choice for a medical facility. These systems also can be used on battery power, making them a practical choice for any working conditions.
