March 14, 2008 - SonoSite Inc. received a design award from the International Forum (iF) in the Health Care category for its S-Nerve ultrasound tool, part of SonoSite’s newly introduced S Series product line, designed to support the visualization needs of anesthesiologists performing regional anesthesia and is designed to function for the guidance of regional nerve blocks and central line placement.
Beating out 2,771 entries based on design, functionality, esthetics, innovation, workmanship and choice of materials, the system reportedly offers the option of a “zero” footprint and is mountable on a wall, the ceiling or on a pole by the patient’s bedside.
The S-Nerve ultrasound tool will be on display with other award-winning products at the International Congress Center in Hannover, Germany, until Aug. 31, 2008.
