Helse Bergen HF intends to execute a full replacement and standardisation of defibrillators at Haukeland University Hospital and Voss Hospital. The Contracting Authority wants a quick and smooth replacement process that is carried out during the first quarter of the agreement. Further, the framework agreement should provide the possibility for supplementary purchasing and further standardisation of Helse Bergen HF throughout the entire agreement period. Haukeland University Hospital currently has the following equipment from Physio Control that is to be replaced:

— 11 Defibrillators with monitoring possibilities (Lifepak 12).

— 44 Manual defibrillators (Lifepak 20).

— 105 Completely automatic heart starters (Lifepak CR plus).

The Contracting Authority wants tender offers on three different types of defibrillators for use in hospitals (intra-hospital):

1. Defibrillators with monitoring possibilities.

2. Manual defibrillators.

3. Completely automatic defibrillators.

The equipment offered shall be delivered complete with the necessary accessories/consumables and additional equipment, ready to use.

Fitness equipment, as well as the necessary consumables for the fitness equipment, shall be included in the tender offer.

Intended use.

Through standardisation of defibrillators the Contracting Authority expects more effective and correct use of the equipment so that patient safety is safeguarded in an optimal manner.

The defibrillators shall be used intra-hospital and include monitoring of unstable patients, cardioversion of cardiac arrhythmias and the resuscitation of patients with cardiac arrest.

All monitoring and therapy functions on the requested defibrillator types must be able to be adapted so that they can be used on both children and adults.
