Write a clear, concise statement describing the need(s) addressed by this project. This must
include 1) numeric data, 2) time frame for the data, 3) source of the data, and 4) the ' '
involved target population and geographic area.
In calendar year 1999, Delray Beach Fire Depart,ment medical records indicate there were
8,161 medical calls of these 1,423 patients required intubation. The service are.~ ;or the City of
Delray Beach, Town of Gulf Stream and Town of Highland Beach, is 18.1 square miles, has a
population of 57,780 according to statistics from the University of Florida. Advancements in the
means of proper ventilation has resulted in measuring the end tidal CO2 of intubated patients.
Capnography is a necessary part of monitoring and analysis of these patients. Capnography
provides a means to access not only the alveolar ventilation, but also the integrity of the airway,
cardiopulmonary function, subtleties of rebreathing and other fine points in the respiratory cycle.
These points are especially important in the field where auscultation of the lungs may be limited
or hindered by extraneous noises or conditions. In addition, it can detect esophageal intubation,
circuit disconnection, apnea, total airway obstruction, cardiac arrest or failure to restore
cardiopulmonary function with external chest compressions secondary to either mechanical or
obstructive causes. No other device or technique has proven more effective at the detection of
esophageal intubation or in documenting the failure to restore cardiopulmonary function.
Capnography provides the paramedic with real data, to make diagnostic, and therapeutic,
decisions that were purely guesswork previously.
Currently we

have no means other than auscultation of the lungs to ensure adequate
Project Outcome Statement:
Write a concise quantifiable statement describing the degree to which the need(s) will be
changed by the project. This must contain the same four characteristics as the need
statement and indicate the evaluation methods used to measure the efficiency and/or
effectiveness of the project's outcome.
With the addition of capnography units, we will enhance the level of service by accurately
providing quantitative data regarding the efficacy of ventilation and resuscitation efforts 100% of
the time. Reviewing the medical records from the Delray Beach Fire Department through its Q/A
process will provide evaluation of the effectiveness of this program. "

Write a clear, concise statement describing the need(s) addressed by this project. This must
include 1) numeric data, 2) time frame for the data, 3) source of the data, and 4) the ' '
involved target population and geographic area.
In Calendar Year 1999, Delray Beach F'ire Rescue Medical Records show that there were 8,161 medical
calls, of these 2,668 were cardiac calls requiring 12-Lead EKG's. The service area for the City of Delray
Beach, Town of Gulf Stream and Town of Highland Beach, which is 18.1 square miles, has a population of
57,780 with 46% over the age of 50 according to statistics from the University of Florida and Florida
Atlantic University. Advancements in the medical treatment of ischemic heart disease include precise
delivery of parenteral medications to a patient in acute distress. Intravenous Nitroglycerin delivered by an
infusion pump has been the standard of Care in the Emergency Department and Intensive Care Units.
The benefits of intravenous Nitroglycerin by an infusion pump include the immediate onset of action and
minute by, minute control of the dose so that hypotension does not develop, as is it commonly does when
given sublingually. Hypotension in the patient with myocardial ischemia may cause more damage to
nutrient starved myocardial cells, converting a small area ofischemia into a larger one. The latest edition
of the Advanced Cardiac Life Support book by the American Heart Association states that "with unstable
angina pectoris or myocardial infarction IV administration is preferred." Intravenous infusion pumps will
raise the level of pre-hospital care being delivered.
Currently DBFD does not administer IV Nitroglycerin. Our need is to equip six (6) ALS transport units with
IV pumps to provide immediate onset of action and minute by minute control of Nitroglycerin. This will
reduce the chances of hypotension and the ischemic area enlarging do to hypotension.
l l. Project Outcome Statement:
Write a concise quantifiable statement describing the degree to which the need(s) will be
changed by the project. This must contain the same four characteristics as the need
statement and indicate the evaluation methods used to measure the efficiency and/or
effectiveness of the project's outcome.
With the addition of IV infusion pumps and Intravenous Nitroglycerin capabilities on our
six (6) ALS transport units in our service area, we will be able to provide defir~i'ti~,e
cardiac care to cardiac/heart patients 100% of the time while reducing the area of
myocardial ischemia due to hypotension.
The Quality Management Team and Medical Director, through medical record review,
will monitor the program to ensure correct medication administration is being
accomplished and the "Card~ac Alert" program is being followed.

Hi, Brad!
It was nice talking to you this morning. As we discussed, I will be sending
you literature regarding our MedSystem III Infusion System. While we still
have the version that yo,3 ~robably saw at the trade show last June, we also
have an upgraded version (MedSystem III DLE) which includes software for a
Drug List Editor (DLE). The DLE is a complementary PC-based software
accessory package that allows the creation of customized Dose Rate
Calculator drug list defaults. This includes the ability to add, delete, or
modify these defaults and drug names.
Brad, ! will include information regarding this latest generation of the
MedSystem III in your package for tomorrow. I will be happy to go over it
with you upon receipt.
Therefore, below is pricing for both MedSystem IIIs, based on the purchase
of (6) units. Model 2865 is the version which includes the DLE software.
Model Price/unit Extended
Price
2863 $ 4,450.00 $26,700.00
2865 $ 4,650.00 $27,900.00
Per your request, this is considered my Outright Sale Price. I do have an
EMS Program going on at this time that you would qualify for, which is based
on quantity. This program is effective until May 31, 2000. We can go over
that when you are ready.
Brad, I am waiting on an answer regarding availability in order to send you
a demo unit. Also, I would like to talk with you after you receive the
literature to determine which version you would like to evaluate.
I appreciate your interest in ALARIS Medical System's products and services.
Please feel free to contact me at 800-854-7128 x7849; otherwise, I will be
following up with you shortly.
