Seeing Clearly for Better Diagnosis and Patient Outcomes

Written by CME Corp Staff | April 19, 2018

In healthcare, even the smallest detail can have a big impact. But, some clinicians may not even be aware that they’re not seeing as clearly as they could be to make the most accurate diagnosis at the point of care.

A new offering from two long standing leaders in the medical industry is helping to change that. At the start of 2018, Midmark and HEINE launched a new partnership to provide customers with three types of high quality diagnostic instruments: otoscopes, ophthalmoscopes, and manual sphygmomanometers. 

“Many non-acute care clinicians in the United States may not even realize there are options available for this type of diagnostic equipment,” said Oliver Heine, CEO, HEINE Optotechnik. “We have an opportunity to educate customers on the benefits of seeing more clearly for exams at the point of care – and provide a solution that ultimately improves diagnosis and treatment for patients.”

Engineered for proper visualization, these otoscopes and ophthalmoscopes provide superior optics and magnification, high-quality illumination and color rendering, and a dust-proof design.

  • Superior Optics and Magnification The BETA®200 LED Ophthalmoscope is the only ophthalmoscope to use glare-free technology called the Aspherical Optical System (AOS). AOS redirects corneal reflections away from the examiner’s path of sight, providing a crisp, clear view of the entire fundus. The BETA®400 LED Otoscope provides 4.2x magnification – the maximum possible to get a clear view and still maintain focus within the ear canal.
  •  LED Superior Color Rendering HEINE was the first company to replicate halogen color rendering (CRI) properties and improve them using LED technology. The CRI indicates how colors are reproduced in comparison with daylight. Midmark and HEINE instruments have exceptionally high CRI values, ensuring that our customers see colors as they truly are – contributing to a more accurate diagnosis and better outcomes.
  • Dust-proof Design Sealed equipment heads in the BETA®200 LED Ophthalmoscopes protect the optical components, ensuring maintenance-free operation.

Great outcomes start with great care powered by great equipment. With products from Midmark and HEINE, clinicians can see clearly, diagnose with confidence and provide patients with the care they deserve.
