Healthymagination is GE Healthcares $6 billion commitment to global health.

GE Healthcare provides transformational medical technologies and services that are shaping a new age of patient care. Join us on our global journey as we continue to focus on reducing costs, increasing access and improving quality through innovation.
Our broad expertise across the perioperative care area is the by-product of a century of anesthesia innovation. The breakthrough ideas of a small Ohio company in 1910, the predecessor to the Anesthesia division of GE Healthcare, have evolved into ideas that continue to open new frontiers in anesthesia.

Todays innovative vision for anesthesia delivery extends across three digital dimensions. We call it a Carestation. The foundation of GEs Aisys* Carestation* is the digital platform that integrates therapy, patient monitoring and information management. The Aisys Carestation is the only fully digital anesthesia solution currently offered in the United States.** Clinicians can appreciate the Aisys for what it delivers in the operating room. CFOs enjoy the added peace of mind knowing that their investment can prepare them for future breakthrough technology when available.
With GEs CARESCAPE* Monitor B850 and Centricity* Perioperative Anesthesia, ranked #1 in 2011 for Anesthesia by KLAS,† your Carestation can help provide exceptional clinical decision support and data management throughout the continuum of care. From scheduling to billing to record management, this helps maximize efficiency and return on investment.
Navigator Application Suite* is a smart technology available with your Carestation that analyzes drug therapy information to model and help predict the effect of supported anesthesia-related drugs and drug interactions. Navigator helps clinicians determine effective treatment plans and adjust as needed based on a continuous flow of centralized, relevant information.
From the OR to the surgery center, GEs broad anesthesia portfolio is ready to meet todays clinical demands. The Avance* Carestation is designed to simplify and integrate GEs most advanced technologies in an interactive, knowledge-based system. Aespire* View is a cost-effective solution that integrates a 12 color ventilator display and advanced ventilation modes including PCV-VG and has the capability of capturing fresh gas flow data. The Aestiva,* one of the most widely used anesthesia systems in the world, is available in a number of configurations, including MRI-compatible.
GEs robust lineup of perioperative monitoring solutions targets all levels of patient acuity. GEs most recent addition, the CARESCAPE* Monitor B650, is a flexible and scalable solution providing access to the right clinical information, when and where it is needed. Consult with your GE representative to determine the best anesthesia and patient monitoring solutions for your facility.
GE is an innovator in expanding ultrasounds role in health care and anesthesia delivery. The Venue* 40 and LOGIQ e* ultrasound systems, designed for anesthesia, provide clarity in visualizing the nerve, needle and anesthetic spread for precise placement of regional nerve block procedures.
