Description

STATEMENT OF NEED Ultrasound Machine (Sonosite Edge II) GENERAL INFORMATION Title: Ultrasound Machine for WVAMC s - Pain Management, Opioid Safety, and Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PMOP) Background: The WVAMC is requesting to purchase one (1) Brand Name Only -Sonosite Edge II Ultrasound System with supporting parts and materials, to monitor and treat specific issues concerning Pain Management. This unit will be used at the Wilmington Veterans Administration Medical Center (WVAMC), Bldg. 1, to support the Pain Management Initiative within the Pain Management, Opioid Safety and Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PMOP). Scope of Work: The contractor shall provide all resources necessary to accomplish the deliverables described in this Statement of Need (SON), except as may otherwise be specified. Ultrasound machines are needed to treat certain pain conditions. The contractor will provide replacement products of equivalent or better condition or loaner products delivered via overnight delivery to be used by the WVAMC s PMOP during warranty service for items covered in warranty. Brand Name Only. Point of Care Visualization Tools Item Quantity Needed SONOSITE'S TECHNOLOGY DRIVEN 5 YEAR STANDARD WARRANTY COVERAGE ON SYSTEMS AND TRANSDUCERS INCLUDED P29241 - COVID-19 Point-of-Care Ultrasound Guide - FDA 510K Cleared 1 L21822 - Sonosite Edge II Ultrasound System SonoSite EdgeII Ultrasound System has been designed around every detail and demand of its users. The SonoSite Edge II ultrasound system is a general-purpose ultrasound system intended for use by qualified physicians and healthcare professionals for evaluation by ultrasound imaging or fluid flow analysis of the human body. The system is used with a transducer attached and is powered either by battery or by AC electrical power. The clinician is positioned beside the patient and places the transducer onto (or into for invasive procedures) the patient s body where needed to obtain the desired ultrasound image. The system transmits ultrasound energy into the patient s body to obtain ultrasound Images. You can assess the liver, kidneys, pancreas, spleen, gallbladder, bile ducts, transplanted organs, abdominal vessels, and surrounding anatomical structures for the presence or absence of pathology transabdominally. With advanced image clarity aided by a new family of transducers and proprietary speckle reduction technology, it gives clinicians an unparalleled level of confidence for diagnostic and procedural applications. The user interface combines touch panel and physical buttons, for most-used functions, to help clinicians improve efficiency, while its adaptable horizontal to vertical work surface positions allow for ideal bedside ergonomics and optimal access to patients. 1 P21609 - Steep Needle Profiling Technology (SNP) The SNP control turns on Steep Needle Profiling technology, a proprietary and patented software algorithm. SNP enhances needle visualization within a selected angle range while maintaining striking image quality of the target and surrounding anatomy. SNP can aid with in-plane needle guidance without additional hardware, equipment, or special needles. For curved array transducers, SNP technology can help identify the direction of the needle, although only segments of the needle shaft may show in the image. Use of movement and fluid injection help verify the needle-tip location. The SNP control is available in 2D full-screen imaging. 1 P21593 - Color Application Package, Sonosite EDGE II Color power Doppler (CPD) is used to visualize the presence of detectable blood flow. Color is used to visualize the presence, velocity, and direction of blood flow in a wide range of flow states 1 P07691 - L25X / 13-6 MHZ Transducer Transverse Biopsy Compatible Arterial, Lung, Musculoskeletal, Nerve, Ophthalmic, Venous This device transforms one form of energy into another form of energy. Ultrasound transducers contain piezoelectric elements, which when excited electrically, emit acoustic energy. When the acoustic energy is transmitted into the body, it travels until it encounters an interface, or change in tissue properties. At the interface, an echo is formed that returns to the transducer, where this acoustic energy is transformed into electrical energy, processed, and displayed as anatomical information. 1 L12830 - Powerpark System Exclusive to Sonosite, PowerPark cordless charging station allows clinicians to dock a Sonosite system in a convenient, central location while the battery charges for cord-free use. Focus on your patients instead of searching for an outlet or worrying about battery life. Benefits: Park your system in a convenient, central location Keep the system fully charged for optimum battery life Cord-free use eliminates power cords dragging on the floor No power cords to clean and disinfect Eliminate the hassle of twisting and bending to find a power outlet Specifications: Width: 8.6 inches (21.8 cm) Length: 15 inches (38.1 cm) Height: 4.8 inches (12.2 cm) Weight: 20 lbs. (9 kg) 1 L15800 - EDGE Stand This small-footprint, lightweight, and sturdy stand is ideal for transporting Sonosite Edge II point-of-care ultrasound systems to the bedside, allowing you to easily maneuver through crowded hospital corridors. Benefits: Four transducer holders provide convenient space for extra transducers not in use Adjustable height for optimal ergonomics Cable hooks ensure the transducer cables are kept off the floor Storage baskets can be placed on the front or back and are easily removed for cleaning AC cord retainer attachment secures the cord firmly in place, preventing an accidental disconnect Specifications: Width: 20.25 inches (51.4 cm) Depth: 22 inches (55.9 cm) Height: Min: 33 inches (83.8 cm) Max: 45 inches (114.3 cm) Pneumatic height range: 12 inches (30.5 cm) Weight: 40 lbs.
