The SonoMaxx Story: Take the handheld ultrasound and go anywhere; rush through swiftly, and diagnosis & treatment arrive instantly.
“Ride an electric scooter, take the handheld ultrasound, and embark on an impromptu rapid diagnosis and treatment trip.” What was once an imagined scene is now a reality on the streets of the Philippines.
Jerome Noblessa is a radiologist in the Philippines who works at both public and private hospitals in the country. These hospitals are equipped with a variety of large-scale medical equipment, allowing patients who visit the hospitals to receive comprehensive examinations. Meanwhile, he also owns a portable handheld ultrasound device like the SonoMaxx. For bedside examinations of patients who are unable to move easily within the hospital or for off-site use, large-scale equipment is relatively inconvenient—and that’s when the handheld ultrasound proves to be extremely useful.
“I really like BMV’s SonoMaxx handheld ultrasound. It’s extremely easy to operate and very convenient to maintain. With just one-click connection, you can start scanning immediately. The handheld ultrasound can be used not only for bedside examinations in the hospital but also outside the hospital,” Dr. Jerome Noblessa praised enthusiastically when talking about his experience with the device.
During the pandemic, patients’ access to medical care was greatly affected, and various pre-treatment examinations made it even more difficult for them. With the handheld ultrasound, especially for elderly patients or those with mobility impairments, family doctors can directly bring the device to patients’ homes for diagnosis and treatment, solving the problem of difficult medical access.
The SonoMaxx handheld ultrasound delivers diagnostic-grade images. Compact, portable, and waterproof, it performs exceptionally well in any environment—whether on the battlefield, in remote mountainous areas, or in pandemic quarantine zones. Additionally, equipped with a 5G telemedicine system, the device enables remote consultations between hospitals at different levels, as well as between in-hospital and out-of-hospital settings, significantly shortening patients’ waiting time for medical care.
