The Contec TS18 Patient Monitor is an advanced modular clinical vital signs monitoring system designed for adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients in high-acuity healthcare environments. It is suitable for operating rooms (OR), intensive care units (ICU), coronary care units (CCU), emergency rooms (ER), and other critical-care settings.
Featuring a 17.3-inch HD color touchscreen, modular hot-plug architecture, comprehensive ECG analysis, optional invasive blood pressure and CO₂ monitoring, and wired/Wi-Fi central monitoring connectivity, the TS18 provides flexible patient monitoring in a single clinical platform.
Its fanless processor design supports quiet operation, while the detachable high-capacity rechargeable lithium battery provides continued monitoring during power interruptions with automatic data saving.

17.3-Inch HD Touchscreen Display
The Contec TS18 features a large 17.3-inch high-definition color touchscreen designed to provide a clear view of patient parameters and waveforms.
The display supports simultaneous presentation of monitored waveforms and numerical parameters, allowing clinical staff to review multiple vital signs from a single screen.
Comprehensive Patient Monitoring
The TS18 supports monitoring of a broad range of physiological parameters.
ECG
The ECG module provides:
- ECG waveform monitoring
- ST-segment measurement
- Pacing analysis
- 23 types of arrhythmia analysis
These functions support continuous cardiac monitoring in high-acuity clinical environments.
RESP
The monitor provides respiration rate monitoring, allowing respiratory activity to be observed alongside other vital parameters.
SpO₂ & PR
The TS18 monitors:
-
SpO₂: Blood oxygen saturation
-
PR: Pulse rate
Both parameters can be viewed alongside the other patient waveforms and numerical measurements.
NIBP
Non-invasive blood pressure monitoring allows routine blood pressure assessment without invasive pressure lines.
TEMP
The monitor supports body temperature monitoring as part of its core vital-sign monitoring capabilities.
Optional IBP
Invasive blood pressure (IBP) can be supported through the modular architecture as an optional parameter.
Optional CO₂
The TS18 can also be configured with CO₂ monitoring/capnography for environments where carbon dioxide monitoring is required.
Modular Hot-Plug Architecture
One of the major features of the Contec TS18 is its modular hot-plug design.
Parameter modules can be plugged in, removed, or changed without requiring the monitor to be restarted. This allows the monitoring configuration to be adapted to different patients and clinical requirements.
This modular approach is particularly useful in environments where monitoring requirements vary between ICU, CCU, OR, and emergency-care patients.
Advanced Alarm System
The Contec TS18 incorporates independent physiological and technical alarm indicators.
This helps distinguish between patient-related physiological alarms and technical/device-related conditions, supporting faster recognition by medical staff.
Wired & Wi-Fi Central Monitoring
The TS18 supports connection to a central monitoring system through wired or Wi-Fi connectivity.
This enables monitored patient information to be transmitted to a central monitoring environment for broader clinical observation.
Fanless & Quiet Operation
The monitor uses a quiet, fanless processor design, helping reduce operating noise.
This is particularly useful in environments such as ICUs and other patient-care areas where minimizing unnecessary equipment noise can be beneficial.
The monitor also features a luminous physical power button, making operation easier in low-light or nighttime conditions.
Rechargeable Battery & Power Protection
The Contec TS18 features a detachable, large-capacity rechargeable lithium battery.
During a power interruption, the system supports continued monitoring and automatic data saving, helping protect patient monitoring information during unexpected power failures.
Patient-Type Quick Switching
The monitor allows quick selection between:
This provides a convenient way to configure the monitor for different patient populations.
ICU Standby Mode
A standby mode is available for situations where the patient needs a temporary monitoring pause, such as during periods of rest in an ICU environment.
Optional 3-Channel Thermal Recorder
The Contec TS18 can be configured with an optional 3-channel built-in thermal recorder for printed monitoring information and records.
