Delivering faster, safer care for young patients
The need for a Mini C-Arm
Currently, treating a fracture in a child often requires sedation administered by an emergency physician or the pediatric sedation team, who are typically available only during limited hours. A follow-up X-ray is then required, which means transporting the sedated child to radiology with additional staff support.
If the fracture is not properly aligned, the process may need to be repeated — including additional sedation, cast adjustments, and another trip to radiology.
This process can be demanding for the child, their family, and the care team, and may extend the time spent in hospital. A Mini C-Arm would allow care teams to assess and adjust fractures in real time directly in the emergency department, reducing the need for transfers and repeat procedures.
