HP Viridia 26/24 Series



Specifications

The HP Viridia 26/24 Series and its family of Viridia products are powerful, flexible patient monitoring
systems that provide a wide range of data acquisition and processing functions for all types of patients, in
both critical care and routine care settings. Although the Viridia 26/24 Series is highly reliable and easy to
use, its high degree of flexibility and functionality may seem daunting to users and technicians who do not
work with it on a regular basis.
Concepts The HP Viridia 26/24 Series is a flexible, bedside monitor for critical and acute care units, and
for patient transport between units (Viridia Model 24CT). It contains a user interface similar to the
Standard Control Panel of Viridia CMS/ACMS, and supports a subset of the functionality of the Viridia
CMS/ACMS. The Viridia 26/24 Series utilizes an outer housing that resembles the OmniCare CTS, but it
contains a simplified hardware architecture, resulting in fewer replaceable parts.
Clinical Uses The Viridia 26/24 Series is designed to monitor patients in most critical and acute patient
care areas of the hospital as well as in transport situations (Viridia Model 24CT). As a bedside monitor, the
Viridia 26/24 Series is most commonly seen mounted to a wall channel with a six- or eight-slot Plug-in
Satellite Rack mounted below it. It can also be mounted on a table mount and a roll stand. As a transport
monitor (Viridia Model 24CT) a six-slot rack can be docked directly to the mainframe. The Viridia 26/24
Series supports a network connection to the Viridia monitoring network (SDN). The Viridia Model 24 and
24Cs source of power is a local AC power connection. The Viridia Model 24CT is powered by either
internal rechargeable batteries or from an AC power connection.

Parameter Modules: predefined combinations of ECG/Resp, NIBP, SPO2, InvPRESS, CO2, VueLink, and
Recorder
Features The Viridia 26/24 Series has the following general features:
Mainframe with monochrome display (Viridia Model 24); mainframe with color display (Viridia Model
24C/24CT/26C/26CT) for display of up to four waveforms
Eight-slot or optional six-slot Plug-in Satellite Rack to hold plug-in modules
Optional battery operation (Viridia Model 24CT/26CT)
All parameter modules supported by HP Viridia CMS
and the HP OmniCare Component Transport System (except FiO2, SvO2, and EEG)
Network Compatible through the HP Viridia patient care system interface
Patient Data Management software which provides 24 hour storage of patient related parameter
information
ST Segment analysis software
oxyCRG display software
Extended arrhythmia detection when networked to one of HPs Arrhythmia Systems
Allows transfer of patient related settings and transfer of patient cables and lines without recabling or
recalibration
Mainframe The mainframe contains the display unit and the processing capabilities for the Viridia
26/24 Series. A computer subsystem is responsible for parameter processing, display control, and
interfacing. The display section consists of a 9.5 (diagonally measured) monochrome display (Viridia
Model 24); mainframe with 10.4 color display (Viridia Model 26C/26CT/24C/24CT).
Rack Features There are two rack options for the Viridia 26/24 Series; either the eight-slot or sixslot
rack can be used. The standard eight-slot rack attaches to the monitor by a front end cable. It houses up to
eight standard single-width Viridia CMS modules. The sixslot rack comes equipped with a standard front-
end link connector for attachment to the Viridia 26/24 Series or to other Viridia CMS models. The Viridia
Model 26CT/24CT supports docking the six-slot rack directly to the monitor mainframe.
