Few materials are as well equipped to handle the everyday rigors of a hospital as Eastman Tritan copolyester. Its inherent durability, impact resistance, and chemical resistance help devices like the ViSi Mobile System withstand spills, multiple cleanings, drops, and clanks along bedrails — all with enduring optical clarity. The ViSi Mobile System wirelessly transmits a patient’s vital signs to a caregiver 24/7, from the scene of the first treatment, en route to the hospital, and even as the patient moves about the hospital. Development of the ViSi Mobile System was a highly collaborative effort between Eastman, Sotera, DDSTUDIO, Phillips-Medisize and Poly-One. ViSi Mobile’s lens, housing and connectors are all made with Eastman Tritan.
ViSi Mobile enhances patient safety by connecting clinicians with their patients anywhere, anytime.
“The ongoing interaction with the experts at Eastman helped ensure that our monitoring system is using a material that is not only durable but also can be treated with chemicals used in hospital-grade disinfectants and cleaners without cracking or crazing,” said Gunnar Trommer, vice president, marketing and customer service, Sotera Wireless.
