GE Aisys CS2
The GE Aisys CS2 is a state-of-the-art digital anesthesia Carestation designed to integrate precision ventilation, digital gas management, and intelligent automation in a single platform.
The GE Aisys CS2 is a state-of-the-art digital anesthesia Carestation designed to integrate precision ventilation, digital gas management, and intelligent automation in a single platform. With a 15-inch movable touchscreen monitor and CARESCAPE-inspired interface, it delivers a modern, intuitive user experience for anesthesia delivery and patient monitoring. At its core, the Aisys CS2 features digitally controlled vaporizers, ventilators, and gas delivery systems, allowing millisecond-level responsiveness to patient changes. The compact Advanced Breathing System (ABS) supports low-flow anesthesia with fast gas kinetics—offering rapid wash-in and wash-out to minimize anesthetic agent waste and enhance patient safety. Engineered for integration and performance, the Aisys CS2 offers electronic agent control, automatic data recording, and real-time gas consumption calculations. It seamlessly connects with GE’s monitoring ecosystem through standard interfaces (Ethernet, RS-232, USB, and VGA), ensuring streamlined data exchange and networked OR functionality.
