Corpuls 3 Modular Emergency Medical Monitor & Defibrillator

The corpuls3 is a modular emergency medical monitor and defibrillator system designed for demanding pre-hospital and clinical environments, including ambulance services, air rescue, military operations, and hospital emergency care.

Its innovative three-part modular architecture consists of the Monitoring Unit, Patient Box, and Defibrillator/Pacer Unit. These modules communicate wirelessly to create a flexible “Working Triangle”, allowing clinicians to position the individual components according to the emergency situation.

The system is designed to maintain continuous patient monitoring while reducing trailing cables and improving accessibility during patient transport.

• Defibrillator/Pacer Unit with 2–200J biphasic defibrillation
• AED and manual defibrillation modes
• Transcutaneous pacing
• Wireless RF communication between modules
• Approximately 6.3–6.5 kg total weight in slim configuration
• IP55 dust and splash protection
• Operating temperature from –20°C to +55°C
• Up to 7–10 hours battery operation
• Automatic charging through vehicle/stretcher mounts
• Built-in 4G modem, WLAN and LAN
• Bluetooth connectivity
• Support for corpuls.mission LIVE real-time data streaming
• Designed for ambulance, helicopter, military and clinical environments
• EU MDR Class III certification via TÜV SÜD

Modular Working Triangle

The corpuls3 separates the system into three independent but interconnected modules.

1. Monitoring Unit

The Monitoring Unit serves as the primary user interface for monitoring, alarms, documentation and data entry.

Features:

• 8.4-inch display
• Optional touchscreen on corpuls3T
• Up to 6 curves
• Up to 13 vital parameters
• Approximate weight: 2.7–2.9 kg
• Handles alarms and patient data entry
• Supports documentation and clinical information management

The separated design allows the Monitoring Unit to be positioned where it is most convenient for the healthcare professional.

2. Patient Box

The Patient Box is designed to remain close to the patient during transport.

Features:

• Approximate weight: 1.0–1.4 kg
• Attaches to or remains with the patient
• Continuous sensor data collection
• ECG
• SpO₂
• NIBP
• CO₂
• Helps eliminate hazardous trailing cables

This arrangement is particularly useful during ambulance and other patient-transport situations where cable management can be challenging.

3. Defibrillator / Pacer Unit

The Defibrillator/Pacer Unit provides emergency cardiac therapy.

Features:

• Approximate weight: 2.3–2.5 kg
• Biphasic defibrillation
• Energy range: 2–200J
• AED mode
• Manual defibrillation
• Transcutaneous pacing

The unit can be positioned independently from the Monitoring Unit while maintaining communication with the rest of the system.

Defibrillation & Pacing

The corpuls3 combines monitoring with essential emergency cardiac therapies.

Biphasic Defibrillation

The Defibrillator/Pacer Unit delivers biphasic shocks from 2J to 200J.

It supports:

• Automated External Defibrillation (AED)
• Manual defibrillation
• Biphasic waveform therapy

Transcutaneous Pacing

The system also supports transcutaneous pacing, providing an additional emergency therapy option when temporary external cardiac pacing is required.

Patient Monitoring

The corpuls3 Patient Box continuously collects patient sensor information while remaining close to the patient.

The supplied configuration supports:

• ECG
• SpO₂
• NIBP
• CO₂

The Monitoring Unit can display up to 13 vital parameters and 6 curves, depending on the configured monitoring parameters.

Wireless Modular Architecture

One of the defining characteristics of the corpuls3 is its modular wireless architecture.

The three modules communicate through wireless RF communication, allowing them to be physically separated while continuing to function as an integrated emergency system.

This enables clinicians to:

• Position the monitor where it is easiest to view
• Keep the Patient Box near the patient
• Position the defibrillator/pacer for rapid access
• Reduce trailing cables
• Work more effectively inside confined emergency vehicles

The supplied information states that clinicians can operate 95% of the functions while seated and belted inside an ambulance or helicopter.

Connectivity & Telemedicine

The corpuls3 is designed for connected emergency medical workflows.

Connectivity options include:

• Built-in 4G modem
• WLAN
• LAN
• Bluetooth
• Wireless RF communication between modules

Bluetooth connectivity also supports synchronization with the corpuls cpr mechanical chest compression device.

The system supports corpuls.mission LIVE for real-time data streaming, enabling remote access to relevant patient and device information where the supported infrastructure is available.

Battery & Charging

The corpuls3 is designed for extended emergency operation with battery operation of approximately 7–10 hours, according to the supplied specifications.

Additional power-management features include:

• Rechargeable battery system
• Automatic battery charging in vehicle mounts
• Automatic charging in stretcher mounts

This makes the system suitable for extended ambulance and transport operations.

Durability & Environmental Protection

The corpuls3 is designed for demanding emergency environments.

Regulatory Certification

The supplied information states that the corpuls3 is certified under the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745/EU as a Class III medical device, via TÜV SÜD Product Service GmbH.
