Equipment

One of the most important things about being a Doctor, Nurse, or medic in the 24th century is knowing the equipment you have at your disposal. Below is a list of some of the medical equipment available of that time frame.

Alpha-Wave Inducer

This is a device for inducing sleep into humanoids. It is for occasional use only. For other sleep inducers, see Somnetic Inducer.

Auto-Suture

Instrument used for closing wounds.

Biobed

Medical device in the form of a bed, used to monitor patients' vital signs. Some advanced models have built in sensors to analyze patients to the molecular level.

Bioregenerative Field

Radiated energy used in biomedical applications to accelerate cellular growth.

Cortical Stimulator

Medical instrument used to revitalize neural activity in a humanoid nervous system.

Dermal Regenerator

Medical Instrument used to repair damaged epidermal tissue.

Drechtal Beams

Surgical device used to sever neural connections.

Exoscalpel

Used by Star-Fleet medical personnel to incise the skin and expose the underlying tissue. Also referred to as a Laser Scalpel

Hypospray

Medical instrument for the subcutaneous and intramuscular administration of medicine for many humanoid patients. It uses an extremely fine high-pressure aerosuspension delivery system, eliminating the need for a needle to penetrate the skin.

Laser Scalpel

See Exoscapel

Medical Tricorder

This device is a more sophisticated device than its sister model. Its is used for medical applications only. It has a removable scanning probe that allows for a freer movement around the subject being scanned and ease of reading whilst scanning.

Med kit

Medical supply modules stored in bulk on Federation ships for emergency relief missions. The kit contains basic medical equipment and drugs.

Microtome

Imaging technique using a series of microscopic narrow beam x-ray's to derive information on a cellular level.

Motor Assist Pads

Four centimeter-wide straps like bands used with neurologically damaged patients. He band provides electrical stimulation to patients' limbs to help with muscle retraining.

Neural Calipers

Medical instrument used in surgical procedures to measure the neural pathway.

Neural Stimulator

Medical device used to increase the activity in the central nervous system of a humanoid brain.

Neural Transducer

Implant able bioelectrical devices that receive nerve impulses from the brain and transmit it to affected voluntary muscle groups. These instruments are used in cases of severed spinal cord damage to give the patient some control over their extremities.

Physiostimulator

Medical instrument used to elevate metabolic functions in an impaired individual.

Plasma Infusion unit

Medical device used to dispense fluids and electrolytes.

Protodynoplaser

Medical device used to stabilize immune systems.

Psychotricorder

Medical instrument used to record past memories.

Pulmonary Support Unit

Emergency Cardiopulmonary support Unit.

Somnetic inducer

A small pad like device used to aid the induction of sleep in humanoids.

Sonic Separator

Medical instrument used by Doctor McCoy when he restored Spocks brain to his body on planet Sigma Draconis VI. ('Spocks Brain' TOS)

Stasis Unit

Emergency medical device used to hold a patient in suspended animation until treatment can be rendered. It can also be used to preserve dead bodies and prevent them from decaying whilst awaiting burial.

T-Cell Stimulator

Medical treatment tool. The device increases the production of T-Cells, a type of lymphocyte that enables the humanoid to fight infection.

Tissue Migrator

Medical instrument used in surgical procedures for the rebuilding of damaged tissue.

Trilaser Connector

Medical instrument used by doctor McCoy when he restored Spocks brain to his body on Sigma Draconis VI.
