Product Description

The Alaris® System integrates drug infusion with patient monitoring and clinical best practice guidelines into a single, modular platform. With multiple configuration options, you can add or remove modules as you need them, keeping the number of devices at the bedside to a minimum while managing the unique needs of each patient.

While the Alaris® System offers maximum flexibility, it also incorporates a common user interface and alert system across multiple bedside devices, enabling you to standardize your infusion and monitoring systems across all areas of the hospital. We offer you a systems approach for all your care areas, rather than simply applying a new technology to "pockets” of your facility. The modularity of this medication safety system also assists in effective asset utilization throughout the hospital.

The Alaris® System works with you to standardize best practices for medication safety– from individual care areas to each specific patient.
