- Description
- THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION ANNOUNCEMENT. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ONLY. This Request for Information (RFI) is intended for information and planning purposes only at this time; and shall not be construed as a solicitation or as an obligation on the part of the Department of Veterans Affairs. Because this is a Request for Information announcement, no evaluation letters and/or results will be issued to the respondents. No solicitation exists. Therefore, do not request a copy of a solicitation. ZEISS OS/CIRRUS HD-OCT Model 6000 Version 9.5 Statement of Need Background: The Butler VA Medical Center Health Care Center (HCC) has a requirement for one (1) ZEISS OS/CIRRUS HD-OCT (Ocular Coherence Tomographer), Model 6000 with AngioPlex OCT Angiography, to be purchased for the Butler Health Care Center. The OCT scans the layers of the back of the eye, showing normal and abnormal structures at the microscopic level. It gives baseline information as to effectiveness of treatment on the structural changes in common diseases such as clinically significant macular edema, cystoid macular edema and glaucoma. In many cases it has replaced the invasive procedure intravenous fluorescein angiograms (IVFAs). It has become the standard of care for monitoring these conditions and is becoming the standard of care for patients on the medication hydroxychloroquine (plaquenil). Scope of Work: The current model (OCT 5000) is unable to be upgraded to Windows 10. The VA Medical Centers are in the process of upgrading to Windows 10 which will include medical equipment. The purchase of an OCT machine in this outpatient clinic, ensures patients will be cared for in a more patient centric fashion, will lend to continuity of care and lack of delay in care. The upgrade to the York unit will assure all patients are receiving the same standard of care at all facilities. Salient Characteristics of the OCT machine: Ability to integrate the Cirrus Model HD OCT 4000 or Model Cirrus 5000 HD OCT data into and with the current Cirrus HD-OCT 6000 data. Raw Data must be interchangeable between the Cirrus 4000, Cirrus 5000, and Cirrus 6000. This can only be done using a Zeiss Cirrus 6000 (or new unit being procured). Ability to enable Raw Data to be sent to FORUM, and allows FORUM to manipulate, process, and analyze with historical/archived data. Must be able to scan at 100,000 Scans per second OCT/OCTA. Must have the ability to scan the Retinal Nerve Fiber, and Optic Nerve Head Analysis information using a 200-line x 200-line scan. Each line has 1024 data points. Meaning the 200 slices vertically acquired and the 200 slices horizontally acquired provide a cumulative value of over 40 million data points for RNFL and ONH Analysis. Must have the ability to scan Retina Nerve Fiber Layer and the Optic Nerve Disc, and Neuro Retina Rim Thickness, and 3-D Cube capabilities at the same time in one Scan that takes 1.5 seconds. Must deliver an image that is over sampled 100 times. Must provide a 12 radial line scan for the Macula/Retina region. Must provide an automated Glaucoma Scan report on the same page with the HFA 750lii Visual Field Instrument Called a Combined Report via Forum. Must have ability to scan and acquire the Ganglion Cell Analysis info in a scan that does NOT include the Inner Limiting Membrane or Retinal Nerve Fiber. Must have the ability to provide a report called Advanced RPE Analysis . This report maps out the area of Geographic Atrophy as well as automatically provides a mathematical assessment that measures closest distance of the geographic Atrophy to the fovea. Report must show volume of drusen area and provide automatic mathematical evaluation and that provides serial analysis with percentage of change auto listed in a 3mm circle and 5mm circle. Must have the ability to produce a report that is called Guided Progression Analysis (GPA). This is different than a Trend Analysis report. The GPA report provides a comprehensive view analysis of both the short term and long-term RNFL and Optic Nerve Head Analysis including Neuro Retina Rim Tissue. GPA Furthermore provides a plotted graph that forecasts what the patient measurements of each of these areas will be in the future. This is done on a linear graph and displayed on the print out. Must have the ability to default to a print out of the Glaucoma Scan to display where the Circle was placed around the Optic Disc. The circle provides the quantitative analysis of the patient compared to the FDA cleared Normative Database. Must have Auto-Center trade Marked software for the Glaucoma scan. Must have the ability to provide a PanoMap wide analysis: The 1 page printout must include all of the following info related to the Posterior Pole: Optic Nerve Head Analysis, Ganglion Cell Analysis, and Macular Thickness Analysis. Must have the ability to use Magnetic Anterior Segment Lens that provides a 15.5 mm by 5.8mm view of the entire anterior chamber. Must have the ability to select pre-determined En Face views of the retina. The list of the predetermined views would include: En Face VRI View En Face Mid Retina View En Face IS/OS Ellipsoid View En Face Mid Retina View En Face Choroid View TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: Angiography version 9.5 2048 Pixel OCT Camera Windows 10 Operating System Deviation Map demonstrating outside normative of Ganglion Cell Layer and Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Fast Track Retinal Tracking Automatic Fovea Finder Dimensions: Device: (L x W x H) 24.4 x 16.7 x 11.4 in Table: 22 x 36 in Weight: 80 lbs. Internal Fixation Focus Adjustment: 20D to +20D (diopters) Electrical Rating (115V) Single Phase, 100-120V systems: 50/60Hz, 5A Internal Computer: Windows 10/ Intel Processor Memory Hard Drive/Internal storage: > 750GB, > 80,000 scans. Display Integrated 19 color flat panel display USB Ports = 6 ports Additional Information: The Zeiss, OCT Machine is the only machine that will integrate with currently used Zeiss OCT machines in the facility, as well as integrate and function with the Zeiss Forum Data System purchased for use in technologically connecting all OCT machines, Visual Field Machines, Microscopes, etc. within the facility. Installation: Contractor shall provide installation services for this procurement. Contractor shall install all applicable software and configure all network connections on the equipment. Contractor shall perform a full functionality test on the equipment to ensure that the equipment is properly sending data either directly to the Zeiss Forum or to its client PC and then to the Zeiss Forum. Contractor shall ensure any bi-directional communication is tested fully, allowing for sending and retrieval of data. Contractor shall provide Biomedical Engineering with all back up discs, licensure, software keys and passwords necessary to fully maintain the equipment. Warranty: All equipment, software and hardware shall have a minimum of one year warranty. Remote and on-site support will be provided at no charge to the Butler VA Medical Center during the warranty period. Delivery: The Zeiss OCT Machine and accessories shall be delivered to the Butler VA Medical Center Health Care Center (HCC). BioMedical Engineering will need to perform a safety check and enter the equipment in to the system for annual Preventive Maintenance (PM) checks. Placement in the Health Care Center shall be coordinated through the Bio-Med Department, Chief, Optometry Service, and the Contracting Officer Representative.
