Draeger Medical Receives FDA Approval for MRI Anesthesia Machine

TELFORD, Pa. — Draeger Medical Inc. received Food and Drug Administration approval for the Draeger Fabius MRI anesthesia machine. This machine is designed specifically to meet the requirements for the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environment.

The Fabius MRI is designed for use with 1.5T and 3.0T MRI systems. An integrated Teslameter provides an acoustic alarm if the Fabius MRI is positioned within a field strength greater than 40mTesla (400 Gauss). The MRI employs the same user interface as Draeger’s Fabius GS, Fabius Tiro and Apollo machines to create a consistent interface for the anesthesia provider wherever anesthesia is required.
