It is a well-known fact that MRI scans can not only bring upon boredom due to long procedure times, but may also cause claustrophobia and stress. These can, in turn, affect the mind of the patient and hinder the recovery process. Now, thanks to CSP Medical, a national distributor of medical devices from London, Ontario, MRI patients can bid their claustrophobia goodbye. Having introduced to the market a series of MRI-compatible entertainment systems, CSP Medical has made a significant contribution towards the transformation of healthcare settings into more relaxed, patient-friendly environment.
Consider the Relax & View entertainment system. Through the ability of this sleek and elegant piece of audiovisual equipment to relieve MRI claustrophobia and stress, doctors have found patients to be more relaxed and co-operative, often without requiring sedation. With a TV screen, quality audio, and a considerable library of videos for patients, this entertainment system has proven to be effective in managing the negative emotions experienced by the patient during this long and tedious procedure.
In addition, the image displayed on the screen can be inverted or reversed. As a result, whatever the orientation of the patient in the scanner or mirror configuration, the orientation of the displayed image on the screen will always be correct.
The Relax & View Entertainment System can be easily installed in existing MRI facilities without having to ramp the magnet down.
In addition to the monitor attached to the MRI equipment, it is also possible to install a corresponding monitor in the patient waiting area. As a result, patients waiting for their scans can also watch the DVD being played.
The audio element of this system can be either connected through the scanner's audio system [if available] or through the CSP PureSound Audio System. Through this state-of-the-art system, a high-quality stereo signal can be delivered into the examination room without interference to the scanner. As a result, the MRI scan can proceed at its regular pace without additional claustrophobia, stress, or boredom for the patient.
It is designed to operate from a stereo signal received from the line or headset output of the included CD player. The Amplifier and Control unit has four phono units at the rear which are made active when the corresponding input switch is selected. In addition, a multi-way socket links to a termination box which is located outside the examination room.
The feeding of signal and supply connections into the examination room is done by a cable via four appropriate electrical filters. This cable is connected to the stereo acoustic converter. This system comes with a termination box which allows for connection to speakers in the examination room, waiting room, or control area.
With entertainment systems such as these, MRI scans don't have to be accompanied by claustrophobia, stress, or boredom. From the point of view of doctors and patients, this is a win-win situation.
