Digital Video Recording System, Model 9300

Kay’s new Digital Video Recording System (DVRS) sets a new benchmark for image quality and convenience for recording endoscopic, fluoroscopic, endosonographic, and other procedures. Patient exams are recorded directly to computer storage media. Image quality is breathtaking and is superior to previous generation recording technology based on VHS or SVHS videotape recorders. Digitizing the video examination also brings many convenient benefits. For example, any examination can be located and viewed in seconds because there is no need to rewind or fast forward to the start of an examination. Comparing exams is also easy and direct because two exams can be loaded and played side by side.

The Revolutionary DVRS

A Powerful Image-Capturing System

The system includes all of the capabilities needed to capture both full motion video and high-resolution still images. Audio (patient audio or examiner comments) and video are captured together. The image quality is broadcast level with progressive scan display (no flicker). Video is captured at a true 60 fields per second (or 50 fields per second for PAL).

Professional-Quality Video

Medical records require high-quality video images without artifacts. Kay’s DVRS includes a professional-level, video-capture, MJPEG compression board (with audio). It produces very accurate and artifact-free, broadcast-quality video images. This board is currently used for video capture and editing by the major broadcast networks.

Instantaneous Examination Review

Exam playback with the Kay system is immediate. The benefit in saved time is actually minutes per exam when compared to VCR-recorded exams. The user can quickly move to the beginning, or to any frame, of the exam and play the recording.

Playback of Two Examinations Side by Side

Two patient exams can be loaded concurrently and compared side by side. This powerful feature facilitates accurate assessment and in-depth comparison of patient performance over time (e.g., before and after drug therapy).

Features

Superior image quality as compared to analog videotape recording
Immediate recall and playback of recorded examinations
Quick and easy comparison of examinations (e.g., pre- and post-surgery)
Numerous features to help in viewing examinations
Report containing important patient/exam data and images

Sophisticated Patient Database

Kay’s system maintains a sophisticated, searchable database of patient/exam information. This information is easily updated before or after a procedure. The clinician is provided with database fields for documenting each examination. The system provides users with a simple, convenient method to customize database fields suited to the needs of their facility. The software also allows the examiner to include a picture of the patient as part of the data stored with an exam.

Patient Reports

All patient and exam information is stored in industry standard formats with templates for automatic generation of reports (using Microsoft Word supplied with the system). These reports include critical exam assessment information, database fields, still images, and even video clips which can be sent electronically (e.g., by e-mail) to a referring physician or to a colleague for consultation.

Connect DVRS to Existing Systems

DVRS can be connected very easily to your existing endoscopy systems or even your microscopes to allow recording of surgical procedures. Allow us to give you an on-site demonstration of this exciting technology.
