THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT ANNOUNCEMENT ONLY. This is NOT a solicitation, but market research to determine potential sources for the Philips Core IntraSight Interventional Applications platform series 5 (NNAW510- Intrasight 5) or an equivalent system to be used at Keesler Medical Center (KMC), Keesler Air Force Base (KAFB). This requirement will upgrade a current Philips Volcano CORE IVUS System. IntraSight interventional applications platform. Includes IntraSight CPU, CPU Base, Operator’s Manual, Power Transformer, Cable Pre-Install Kit, Power Supply, Connection Box, Mouse, Keyboard, 19” Monitor Kit, DICOM Network Connection. “If can provide an equivalent replacement, please state how the capabilities of the equivalent product.” Imaging (IVUS) License. Includes IntraSight IVUS Software package: Digital, Rotational, and ChromaFlo IVUS. “If can provide an equivalent replacement, please state how the capabilities of the equivalent product.” Digital PIM. Includes PIM, Cabling, and PIM holder. Physiology (iFR/FFR) License. Includes IntraSight Physiology Software Package: iFR Hyperemia Free Lesion Assessment Modality, FFR Modality, iFR Option Manual FFR 2.5. “If can provide an equivalent replacement, please state how the capabilities of the equivalent product.” M-PIM. Cabling, FM-PIM holder, and FM-PIM to Verrata Wire Adapter. Touch Screen Module (TSM). Tableside touch screen controller, and articulating bedrail mount. “If can provide an equivalent replacement, please state how the capabilities of the equivalent product.” The special feature is the Instantaneous Wave-Free Ration (iFR) capability. This is the pressure differences across the coronary artery stenosis to determine the likelihood the stenosis impedes oxygen delivery to the heart muscle. Unlike Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) capabilities, the iFR allows measurements to be obtained without using the medication adenosine, which can cause cardiac instability and failure during the procedure making iFR safer for patient care use. iFR is the new evidence-based standard for invasive evaluation of intermediate-severity coronary lesions. Any system offered as an equivalent should perform all or more of the functions available with the COR IVUS Intrasight 5 system. “If can provide an equivalent replacement, please state how the capabilities of the equivalent product.” This notice does not constitute a promise to issue a solicitation in the future.
