Patient Rooms and Wards
Start with patient handling, bedside care, nursing workflow, and infection-control basics.
- Hospital beds: Manual, semi-electric, ICU, and specialty bed options depend on department and patient acuity.
- Bedside lockers and overbed tables: Often sourced with beds, mattresses, and ward furniture as a package.
- Patient monitors: Useful for high-dependency beds, step-down care, and observation areas.
- Nurse call system: Needs site layout, cabling, room count, and integration planning.
ICU and Critical Care
Plan monitoring, ventilation, emergency response, infusion, oxygen delivery, and backup support together.
- Ventilators: Confirm invasive, non-invasive, transport, and ICU requirements before shortlisting.
- Patient monitors: Compare required parameters such as ECG, SpO2, NIBP, EtCO2, temperature, and IBP.
- BIPAP machines: Useful for respiratory support workflows outside full invasive ventilation.
- Infusion and syringe pumps: Share bed count and expected pump ratio so MedPrax can suggest suitable options.
- Defibrillators: Shortlist manual defibrillators or AEDs based on department workflow.
Diagnostics and Imaging
Match diagnostic equipment to patient volume, reporting workflow, consumables, calibration, and service support.
- ECG machines: Choose channel count, print format, storage, and interpretation features based on OPD and emergency use.
- Ultrasound machines: Shortlist by probe requirement, portability, reporting, and clinical specialty.
- X-ray machines: Room readiness, radiation safety, installation, and documentation matter before purchase.
- Lab analyzers and diagnostic accessories: Often require consumable planning, throughput estimates, and brand compatibility.
Operation Theatre and CSSD
OT procurement should align table, lighting, anesthesia, instruments, sterilization, and installation workflows.
- Surgical instruments: Build procedure-wise sets with sizes, patterns, quantities, and sterilization compatibility.
- OT lights: Compare ceiling, mobile, LED, shadow control, intensity, and installation requirements.
- Anesthesia machines: Confirm vaporizer, ventilator, monitor, gas pipeline, and accessory requirements.
- OT tables and pendants: Room layout, specialty, electrical points, and installation support determine the right option.
- Autoclaves and sterilization equipment: Capacity, cycle type, CSSD workflow, and documentation should be reviewed together.
Emergency and Support Areas
Emergency readiness depends on rapid assessment, resuscitation, transport, and reliable backup equipment.
- Defibrillators: Critical for emergency, ICU, OT, and ambulance readiness.
- Patient monitors: Select portable or bedside monitors based on emergency workflow.
- Stretchers and wheelchairs: Share expected traffic, department, and patient handling needs.
- Oxygen therapy equipment: Flowmeters, regulators, cylinders, concentrators, and pipeline compatibility should be planned together.
