This tender was for the replacement of stand alone pulse oximetry equipment located at the Royal Hospital for Sick Children (RHSC) in Edinburgh.

This specification is to cover a replacement programme for the provision of approximately 145 stand alone pulse oximeters for use within the hospital environment primarily for paediatric use but may also be required for adult patients from the Department of Clinical Neurosurgery, the pulse oximeters will also be used for community paediatric patients.

Due to the nature of the new RHSC in which many patient rooms are single cubicles there is an additional requirement for the pulse oximeter to alert and inform clinical staff of alarm triggers and deteriorating patient condition.
