Has any hospital recently purchased a significant number of patient monitors from China? My company is now distributing certain aspects of the product range and maybe in a position to offer service support.

Or the Philips Goldway monitors?
In fact what monitors are not made in China these days?

My spelling is not bad. I am typing this on a Medigenic keyboard and I blame that for all my typos.

That first post seems a bit cryptic to me.  However, those monitors do look kind of familiar. But there again, almost everything you see these days appears a bit, shall we say, "generic".
If you don't inspect ... don't expect.

Sorry guys currently on holiday... Actually its not Mindray or Philips Goldway. My company has secured a distribution agreement to sell certain aspects of this range. We have learnt from the manufacturer that a third party pitched its monitors against a tender for 400 units. They won the order, delivered the goods to the unknown site ... got paid and have since moved on.

Philips IntelliVue bedside and IntelliVue spot-check monitors are manufactured in Boeblingen, Germany (at the same building where I work). The IntelliVue wearable monitors are manufactured in Andover, Massachusetts, USA. No device carrying the Philips IntelliVue name is manufactured in China.
