Echoserve joins patient monitoring market

Echoserve has added physiological patient monitoring to their portfolio of medical product sales, depot repair and field service businesses.

The Golden, Colo.-based company said it now carries inventory, repair and provides field maintenance services for the most popular models of monitoring equipment from GE Healthcare, Philips Healthcare, Welch Allyn, SpaceLabs, Siemens Healthcare and Datascope.

“Each of the major diagnostic imaging manufacturers has restructured their business units to align patient monitoring and diagnostic ultrasound due to the significant cross-over in the sales call pattern, device price points, product technologies and service paradigms. For many of these same reasons, patient monitoring is highly complementary to our ultrasound service business,” said Christopher M. Cone, CEO of Echoserve.
