What special design advantages do TMC products have over competitive products?

There are various design advantages that TMC offers over competition. A few advantages are mentioned product vice, below

 

ESWL

 

Low Maintenance - High availability, short treatment time and easy servicing for distinct savings over other lithotripsy systems.

Shorter Treatment Times - Because of high energy output and a precise focal zone,  our lithotripters have an added advantage of greatly reducing treatment times. With any VULCAN lithotripter, a treatment session of around 3000 shots generally takes only 40 to 50 minutes.

Economical - Long lasting consumables available at really affordable prices and lesser maintenance and running cost. The VegaIII Ultralife shock wave generator is covered under a minimum life warrantee of 4 million shockwaves, which is a very high figure.

No Anaesthesia - Treatments on VULCAN lithotripters are performed without general anaesthesia.

ECG controlled trigger - ECG triggering provides shock wave pulses in synchronization with the QRS-complex. Shock waves are released only on systolic phase of the cardiac cycle.

Unique C-arm Integration - Due to its unique integrated design, the Torro Compact provides reliable targeting of the stone, not seen with separate component systems.

Quick and Safe - Advanced x-ray and optional off-line ultrasound locating system for simple and accurate stone positioning.

 

IECP

It is microcontroller based system with lots of preset auto functions and easy to use graphic controls. It has features like auto treatment mode for automated inflation / deflation timing. Self maintenance features, i.e.  Machine can perform limited self servicing on its own periodically, thereby reducing user intervention.  Working Principle - We use the principle of velocity rather than volume. In the volume technology (that is normally used) the working components are big in size to transfer large volume of air from one area to another and as a result the patient is constantly in a position which we call as “horse riding bumps “ in which the patient is jumping throughout the treatment which largely is not recommended for patients above 55 years of age. There is a requirement of constant monitoring of the time parameter in the diastolic phase and the technician has to keep adjusting the parameters. The auto functions cannot be accurately adjusted as transfer of air from one area to another is sluggish. The machine is bulky with excessive downtime primarily of moving components. On the contrary the machine that is based on the velocity is smaller in size, does not have the so called “ horse riding bumps” treatment position, the diastolic phase is more accurately calculated, auto functions work more precisely and there is less of downtime even of the moving components.
