Biomonitor: This compact device measures life
signs—heart rate, blood pressure, temperature, and so
on. The biomonitor can also analyse blood, sweat, and
skin samples. Used by medical services and patients
who need to monitor their own health, biomonitors can
be worn as an armband or wristband or integrated into
clothing or commlinks.
Wireless: The biomonitor shares information with other
wireless devices you designate and can auto-alert
DocWagon or another ambulance service if your life
signs reach certain thresholds.
Disposable syringe: Made of plastic with a metal needle, syringes are intended for a single use. Syringes can be used to apply injection-vector toxins. An uncooperative victim might need to be immobilised or at least grappled first.
Medkit: The medkit includes drug supplies, bandages,
tools, and a (talkative) doctor expert system that can advise
the user on techniques to handle most typical medical
emergencies (including fractures, gunshot wounds, chemical
wounds, and poisoning, as well as offering advice for
the treating of shock, handling blood loss, and of course
performing resuscitations). Add the medkit’s rating to your
limit on First Aid tests. A medkit of Rating 3 or lower fits
in a pocket; at Rating 4+ it’s a handheld case. The medkit
needs to be restocked after every (Rating) uses.
Wireless: The Medkit provides a dice pool bonus
equal to its rating to First Aid + Logic tests, or can operate
itself with a dice pool of Medkit Rating x 2 and a limit
equal to its Rating.
Vasotech Autoinjection Gun: The Vasotech Multidose Autoinjector System is a favourite among military and civilian combat medics. These compact handheld devices resemble a pistol. When pressed against a subject’s skin, the autoinjector rapidly sterilizes a small field and administers an injection from a multidose drug reservoir. The MD-9 model features a single larger reservoir that stores up to nine doses, whereas the newer MD-3X model features three smaller reservoirs, each of which holds up to three doses. In game terms, an autoinjector allows a medic to administer an injectable drug with a Simple Action. Changing reservoirs with the MD-3X requires a Simple Action, unless the device is controlled with a direct neural interface, in which case it’s a Free Action.
Vasotech Rapid Infuser: The Vasotech Rapid Infuser is a small, portable device that uses miniaturized rotary pumps to rapidly infuse drugs or fluids through an IV line. A Rapid Infuser is necessary for administration of certain infusion drugs such as HemoSynth and cryo. In addition, any drug or toxin administered with a Rapid Infuser has its Speed set to Instant.
Docwagon HemostatiX Dressing: Developed by DocWagon in partnership with Apex Pharmaceuticals, the HemoStatiX dressing treats bleeding in the field effectively and promptly through a combination of mechanisms. The dressing is impregnated with hemostatic drugs, which activate on contact with blood. This also triggers a contraction of the dressing that applies pressure to the wound. In game terms, application of the HemoStatiX dressing requires a First Aid + Logic (2) Test to apply (in SR5, the Mental limit applies). If successful, the interval for accumulation of Progressive or Overflow Damage is increased to (Body + 2) Combat Turns.
GE Statscan: The STATscan is a handheld medical imaging device that uses multimodal imaging technology, predictive simulation, and advanced computer tomography to generate a realistic AR overlay of a patient’s internal anatomy. The device emits a visible light, which can be seen by observers. When used for Diagnosis Tests, the STATscan adds +2 to the medic’s dice pool. The system can also be built into a cyberhand, which requires 2 open capacity slots.
