Finland – Medical equipments – Blood pressure monitor for toe/ankle and upper arm measurements

The HUS Group requests tenders for a device intended for measuring toe/ankle and upper arm blood pressure. The device will be used at the Vascular Surgery Outpatient Clinic (Arterial Laboratory). The Arterial Laboratory performs approximately 5000 ABI (ankle–brachial index) and finger pressure measurements annually. The ABI examination involves measuring blood pressure simultaneously from both upper arms and both ankles. Toe pressures must likewise be comparable with the upper arm pressure measured at the same time. The measurement protocol also includes recording a pulse volume waveform at ankle level. The same device is also used to measure finger pressures. The purpose of the procurement is to replace equipment reaching the end of its service life; therefore, the measurement results of the new device must be comparable with those produced by the devices currently in use in the Arterial Laboratory (Periflux system 6000 peripherial pressure premium). The procurement includes one (1) device and the consumables specific to the device. The procurement also includes the following options: - a maintenance agreement after the warranty period for each device, and - two (2) additional devices and the consumables spesific to the devices The contracting authority will decide on the use of the options by 31 December 2028. The estimated total value of the procurement (VAT 0%) is approximately EUR 300,000. This estimate includes the device, optional devices, device‑specific consumables, and the post‑warranty maintenance agreement. The contracting authority does not commit to the stated euro amounts or the consumption quantities presented in the request for quotation. Final order quantities may be higher or lower than indicated. This is a single procurement and has not been divided into lots. The equipment package constitutes a technically and functionally coherent whole, and dividing it into several procurements would not be appropriate. Splitting the procurement could...
