When patients are transferred from one department to another,
clinicians often struggle with incomplete data records leading to
inefficiency due to multiple systems operating independently. Getting
a complete view into patient data to allow for informed clinical
decision support requires manual steps and can contribute to a higher
potential for error, especially when dealing with critical care
patients. IntelliVue X3 integrates seamlessly into the existing
IntelliVue Patient Monitoring system, including bedside and transport
monitors, the clinical network and Philips family of central
stations. Data from the IntelliVue X3 is also integrated into mobile
applications, the hospital network, and interfaces that connect the
system to other medical devices and to the hospital's electronic
medical record (EMR) system. As part of this larger Patient
Monitoring portfolio, X3 assists clinicians in providing the best
possible care for patients across all levels of acuity and supporting
institution-wide standardization.

"The challenge of delivering care efficiently and effectively within
hospitals' acute environments continues to increase," said Felix
Baader, Business Leader, Patient Care and Monitoring Solutions,
Philips. "Health systems need accurate and transparent information
and processes to help clinical staff make faster, more consistent
decisions based on patient conditions and history. With the
development of the IntelliVue X3, we're aiming to ensure that data
isn't being lost during transitions and that we're able to better
equip clinicians with the information they need, when they need it."

In addition to providing complete data records, IntelliVue X3
provides a comprehensive and scalable set of market-leading clinical
measurements, ranging from basic to advanced monitoring. It allows
for advanced monitoring during stationary and transport situations,
including dual invasive blood pressure, built in mainstream CO2, a
choice between three SpO2 technologies and state-of-the-art
ECG/Arrhythmia.

Through its integration with the IntelliVue Patient Monitoring
system, the IntelliVue X3 expands on Philips' continuing commitment
and leadership in patient monitoring, providing an enterprise-level
solution comprised of high data security IT products. The IntelliVue
X3 has received the CE Mark in Europe. Pending 510(k), not available
for sale in the U.S. For more information on Philips full suite of
