Mindray Animal Care VetaL 3 Portable Veterinary Monitor
(Essential, Intuitive, and Reliable Monitoring for General Veterinary Practice)
The Mindray Vetal 3 is a compact, entry-level, and highly intuitive multi-parameter patient monitor specifically designed for core vital signs monitoring in veterinary daily practice, including pre-operative, procedure, and post-operative care.
Key Features and Monitoring
The Vetal 3 focuses on providing accurate and stable measurements for the most critical parameters:
- Core Parameters (Standard): ECG (3 or 5-lead, with patented algorithm for stable monitoring), SpO\textsubscript{2} (Pulse Oximetry), NIBP (Non-Invasive Blood Pressure), TEMP (Temperature), and RESP (Respiration Rate).
- Extended Option: The monitor is available in models that include integrated Sidestream Capnography (EtCO\textsubscript{2}) for crucial respiratory monitoring during anesthesia.
- Display: A bright 10.1-inch High-Resolution LED screen features an anti-glare coating for easy readability in various lighting conditions. It is also available with an optional touchscreen.
- Intuitive Interface: The workflow is designed for simplicity. Users can access common functions directly via user-defined quick keys and can access the main menu with a single click, allowing for configuration in just two steps. A “Startup Guide” function is also included to aid new users.
Veterinary-Specific Design and Intelligence
 
The Vetal 3 incorporates features adapted for the unique veterinary environment:
- Animal-Optimized Algorithms: Specialized algorithms for parameters like NIBP and SpO\textsubscript{2} ensure precision, accommodating a wide range of animal sizes and physiological characteristics, and counteracting interference from low perfusion or movement.
- Automated Alarms: After selecting the patient type and inputting body weight, the monitor can automatically match and set the appropriate alarm range, increasing patient safety and speeding up setup.
- “Love-Paw” Alarm Indicator: A unique visual alarm indicator provides a clear and vivid alert status.
- Fan-Free (Eco-Friendly) Design: This crucial design choice prevents animal fur entanglement, improves the monitor’s reliability, and extends its service life by reducing internal dust contamination.
- Durability and Portability: With a lightweight design (approx. ![]() ) and a robust, drop-resistant (up to ) and a robust, drop-resistant (up to![]() ) and moisture-protected casing, the Vetal 3 is ideal for mobile veterinary applications. ) and moisture-protected casing, the Vetal 3 is ideal for mobile veterinary applications.
