Given Workstation
The PC-based workstation is pre-installed with RAPID software. It offers physicians a user-friendly, HIPAA-compliant interface for viewing and interpreting images captured by the PillCam video capsules.
DataRecorder
The data recorder is a small portable recording device that receives signals via a sensor array that are transmitted by the PillCam video capsule as it passes through the GI tract. The data recorder is attached to a belt worn by the patient during the entire examination. In January 2006, the Company launched DR2.0C its most advanced data recorder with added storage capacity.
SensorBelt
In 2009, Given Imaging received FDA clearance for the SensorBelt. This comfortable belt is worn around the patient’s waist and can replace the 8-lead SensorArray for PillCam SB studies. The SensorBelt is fitted over a single layer of natural fiber clothing worn by the patient and employs easy-fasten straps for quick adjustments and removal. The sensors are incorporated within the belt and eliminate the need for a nurse to adhere sensors or prepare a patient’s abdomen for the procedure.
RAPID Real-Time
This handheld device enables physicians to conduct real-time viewing during the PillCam capsule endoscopy procedure. It also allows physicians to remotely initialize a data recorder to administer the PillCam video capsule to patients at satellite locations. RAPID Real-Time was cleared for marketing by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in June 2006.
