The Edan iM3 is an ultra-slim vital signs monitor built around an 8 inch capacitive touchscreen. It measures SpO2, non-invasive blood pressure, pulse rate and temperature, and switches between three working modes: continuous monitoring at the bedside, spot check for rapid observations, and a rounds mode that carries a patient list through a ward round and records against each name.
This unit is pre-owned and comes with its SpO2 finger sensor, extension lead, adult NIBP cuff and tube. A rolling stand is available with it but is not included in the shipped price, and the arrangements for that are set out below.

Most vital signs monitors are built for one job, and the mismatch shows up as soon as the workflow changes. A continuous bedside monitor asked to do a set of ward observations produces a stream of data nobody wanted and no record against a patient name. A spot check device asked to watch a deteriorating patient has no trending and no alarms worth the name. The iM3 carries three configurations in one unit: monitoring mode with real-time display, alarms and trend, spot check mode for a single set of observations, and rounds mode, which is the one that changes the working day.
In rounds mode the patient list is loaded onto the monitor, from a USB drive or from the record system, and the trolley goes round the bay taking observations against each name in turn, with colour coding showing who has been done and who has not. The measurements come back off the monitor as a report rather than being copied onto paper and typed in later, which removes the transcription step where most observation errors are introduced. For a ward doing four rounds a day that is the difference between the monitor being a device and being part of the documentation process.
Two things are worth checking before buying. Configuration varies considerably on this platform: SpO2 can be the Edan module or Nellcor, blood pressure can be Edan or SunTech, temperature can be an oral module, infrared ear, non-contact or temporal, and Wi-Fi and the barcode scanner are options rather than standard. A pre-owned unit is whatever it was ordered as, so the modules on the individual monitor decide what accessories fit it. And this is a vital signs monitor rather than a full multiparameter monitor: there is no ECG trace, no invasive pressure and no capnography, so anyone needing those is looking at a different class of device.
