Cath Lab Intercom System | Medical AV

We have done several procedure rooms also known as cath lab intercom systems in the greater Tampa Bay area. All of the systems have been similar yet slightly different. Some systems were just some simple intercoms with communication between the doctor and the lab technicians. Other systems were intercoms integrated with a very good sound system. In most all of our systems the intercom system is handled by using Tech Works line of intercom products. Tech Works has a great reputation in the industry and their products have worked out extremely well for us.

Most Procedure Rooms have observation windows that allow Technicians, Students, or support staff to view the procedure while performing other functions. Because of this, clear , intelligible, quality audio is a critical part of communicating through the clean-room barrier. The Tech Works IC-52-ENH is a complete system solution that is easy to install, easy to adjust, and very flexible to allow the operation to be tailored to the exact communication requirements. The IC-52-ENH's full duplex operation means that all words from all parties are always heard so that no message or critical communication is lost.

Some of the accessory options include; hanging microphones, flush ceiling speakers, and foot operated call switches for the procedure room. This maintains the clean environment staff because the staff does not have to touch anything. On the lab or viewing side of the glass there are options for wireless headsets to keep the lab technicians mobile. By being hands-free they are able to work while maintaining full communication. Also available are permanently mounted microphones, speakers, and control switches for other observers or functional control.

In addition a music control option is included to play owner provided music in the procedure room. This can be either to sooth the patient or entertain the staff. This music can be used at all times with the critical speech communication, because it is user controlled. The IC-52-ENH provides for full control of music program by turning it down during critical intercom communication and slowly restoring it to listening level when communication is complete. By integrating the music into the IC-52-ENH intercom, the hospital stall can control what music they would like to hear while performing a procedure. Some of the music choices could be provided by a CD player, iPod, XM radio or other computer music source such as Pandora, Rhapsody or Spotify. We have done some very nice stereo sound systems as well as some rather basic background music only systems. Either way it's usually appreciated by the staff instead of silence.
