SureSigns VM4

Bedside patient monitor

The SureSigns VM series patient monitors are ideal for monitoring, recording, and alarming multiple physiological parameters of adults, pediatrics, and neonates in healthcare environments, including intra-facility transport.

Features

Wide variety of measurements makes VM4 your go-to monitor

The SureSigns VM4 patient monitor measures ECG, SpO₂, non-invasive blood pressure, heart rate, arrhythmia, pulse rate, temperature (optional) and respiration. The ability to measure a range of physiological parameters makes the VM4 a flexible patient monitor in a variety healthcare situations.

Flexible, easy-to-read display for ease of use

The VM series has an easy-to-read display with large color-coded numerics and waveforms, to give you important information at a glance. Its flexible display formats can be configured to quickly show information you need.

Lithium ion battery for power on the go

This monitor comes standard with a lithium ion battery to support reliable performance on the go.
