Vetted Performance Status

In Carestation 620 Brochure GE Healthcare reports 19,000+ hours of reliability and endurance testing, equal to over 450,000 simulated cases. This includes 17,000,000+ software actions stress test, -60 to +120 C extreme temperature testing, interference and shock testing, stability and tip testing under harsh conditions, 120,000,000+ flow sensor tests, 1,000,000,000+ flow valve cycles, and 250,000+ hardware and software reboot cycles.

Safety

Surgery and anaesthesia can be inherently dangerous. GE states that they are committed to building innovative anaesthesia solutions that balance user interface design with intelligent tools to help clinicians prevent misuse and medical errors. GE also states that Carestation 650 offers smart tools to simplify daily work and help ensure effective reactions to non-ordinary events. When seconds count, active mechanisms can help clinicians better manage non-ordinary events.
