Anesthesia machines play a vital role in medical practices, so deciding which is right for your needs makes an impact. DRE sales people are trained to help answer questions about the roles you need an anesthesia machine to play in your facility. The first factor to take into consideration is determining the role a new anesthesia machine will play in your practice. This will make it easier to make important decisions about the size, portability and anesthesia agent needed for use. Once you’ve defined these parameters, you can begin narrowing your search to the machines your facility could implement. DRE offers price points for both new and refurbished, portable and wall-mounted units from all major name brands and DRE.
