All-in-One Life Support Solution for Trauma and Transport

Nectar designed and engineered the LSTAT Lite system as an all-in-one life support solution for trauma treatment and transport by incorporating the capabilities of a hospital ICU suite within a portable, mobile system. Critical care capabilities that have been incorporated in the LSTAT Lite system include ventilation, oxygen delivery, fluid/drug infusion, suction, defibrillation, physiological monitoring, blood chemistry analysis, data logging, communications, power, and data management systems. First responders can use the LSTAT Lite system to treat and transport trauma patients.
