No two patients are the same, and this extends to the medical probes utilized in their care. Huntleigh recognizes this fact and emphasizes the importance of tailoring probe applications to individual patients and specific medical conditions. The new range of high sensitivity XS probes have been designed, calibrated and fine-tuned to provide excellent performance over the widest gestational age and BMI range in all clinical settings. These include the 4, 5, 8, and 10MHz options and the unique wide-beam EZ8 8MHz probe. Also for intraoperative use the pre-sterilised 8Mhz single use intraoperative probe. This blog post aims to highlight the various Huntleigh Probes Differences in Use.
