The EcoMed EPM-50 patient monitor is a multiparameter bedside and portable patient monitoring system designed for monitoring essential vital signs in clinical environments. The 6-parameter configuration listed in Kenya includes ECG, SpO₂, NIBP, respiration (RESP), temperature (TEMP), and pulse rate (PR). The current Kenya listing describes the EPM-50 as suitable for hospitals, clinics, HDU, ICU backup, theatre recovery, maternity, emergency care and ambulance use.
EcoMed officially lists the EPM-50 within its patient-monitor range. The EPM-50 documentation also describes a portable patient monitor suitable for adult, pediatric and neonatal monitoring, with functions including ECG, respiration, SpO₂, NIBP and temperature monitoring.
The EcoMed EPM-50 6-parameter patient monitor combines six routinely monitored physiological parameters in one unit:
ECG – electrocardiographic monitoring and heart rate
SpO₂ – oxygen saturation and pulse rate
NIBP – non-invasive blood pressure
RESP – respiratory rate and waveform
TEMP – temperature monitoring
PR – pulse rate
The current Kenya product listing identifies ECG, SpO₂, NIBP, RESP, TEMP and PR as the six standard parameters for the listed EPM-50 configuration.
The EcoMed EPM-50 monitor is designed to provide real-time visualization of patient parameters and waveforms from a single bedside device.
The documented EPM-50 platform includes ECG waveform monitoring, ST-segment analysis, SpO₂ plethysmography, NIBP measurements, respiration monitoring and temperature measurement. It also provides visual and audible alarms and options for reviewing stored monitoring information.
The exact display size can vary by listed configuration. The current Kenya listing specifies a 12.1-inch or 15-inch high-resolution colour TFT LCD, while EPM-50 documentation describes a large display capable of showing multiple waveforms and patient parameters.
A multi-parameter patient monitor allows healthcare professionals to observe several physiological measurements from one monitoring system.
The EcoMed EPM-50 is designed around this approach, combining ECG, SpO₂, NIBP, respiration, temperature and pulse rate in the six-parameter configuration. Depending on the exact configuration, the EPM-50 platform can also support additional parameters such as IBP and EtCO₂.
This makes the monitor adaptable to different clinical monitoring requirements, provided the required modules and accessories are included in the purchased configuration.
The EPM-50 supports ECG monitoring and heart-rate measurement. Documented EPM-50 specifications include 3- and 5-lead ECG configurations, ECG waveform display, ST-segment analysis and arrhythmia functionality depending on configuration.
ECG monitoring allows clinicians to observe cardiac electrical activity and associated heart-rate information as part of routine patient monitoring.
The SpO₂ function monitors peripheral oxygen saturation and pulse-related information. The documented EPM-50 platform displays an SpO₂ plethysmographic waveform alongside the numerical reading.
The current Kenya listing specifies an SpO₂ measurement range of 0–100% and identifies the supplied SpO₂ sensor as part of the listed accessories.
The EPM-50 provides non-invasive blood pressure monitoring using an oscillometric method.
The current Kenya specification identifies manual, automatic and STAT NIBP modes, with systolic, diastolic and mean pressure measurements.
Appropriate cuff size and patient-category settings should be selected according to the patient and manufacturer's instructions.
The RESP function monitors respiratory activity and displays respiration-related information. The EPM-50 documentation describes thoracic-impedance respiration monitoring and respiration waveform display.
The EPM-50 supports temperature monitoring, with the current Kenya listing specifying dual-channel T1/T2 temperature measurement for the listed configuration.
Temperature monitoring can be used as part of routine vital-sign assessment and continuous patient observation.
Pulse rate is the sixth parameter in the listed six-parameter EPM-50 configuration. The Kenya listing identifies PR as being derived from ECG and/or SpO₂ signals, depending on the monitoring setup.

The EcoMed EPM-50 patient monitor can be considered for several healthcare environments where multiparameter vital-sign monitoring is required.
The EPM-50 can be positioned beside a patient's bed to monitor multiple vital signs from one display.
The six-parameter configuration provides ECG, SpO₂, NIBP, RESP, TEMP and PR monitoring. Facilities requiring invasive blood pressure or EtCO₂ should confirm that the selected unit includes those options.
The monitor can be used for postoperative observation when the required parameters, accessories and clinical protocols are in place.
The portable form factor can be useful where patient monitoring equipment needs to be repositioned within an emergency or acute-care environment.
The current Kenya listing identifies maternity wards and general clinical observation areas among potential applications.
The EPM-50 documentation describes a portable design with a built-in rechargeable battery, supporting use where patient monitoring needs to continue during movement or transport.
The EPM-50 documentation identifies the monitor as suitable for adult, pediatric and neonatal patient monitoring. Appropriate patient-category settings, cuffs, probes and sensors must be selected for the patient being monitored.
The monitor should be operated by trained healthcare professionals according to the manufacturer's instructions and facility procedures.
Position the EPM-50 securely on an appropriate bedside surface or approved mounting system.
Connect the required power supply.
Connect the ECG cable and apply the appropriate electrodes.
Attach the SpO₂ sensor correctly.
Select and apply the appropriate NIBP cuff.
Connect the temperature probe where temperature monitoring is required.
Select the appropriate patient category.
Confirm that waveforms and numerical readings are displayed correctly.
Set alarm limits according to clinical requirements and facility protocol.
Monitor the displayed parameters and respond to alarms appropriately.
Clean the monitor and accessories according to the manufacturer's instructions after use.
The current Maesio Pharmaceuticals Kenya listing shows the EcoMed EPM-50 6-Parameter Patient Monitor at KSh 140,000. The listing is specifically for the desktop/bedside version without a stand.
The price should be treated as a current supplier-specific listing rather than a universal Kenya market price. Confirm the exact configuration, display size, accessories, warranty and available optional parameters before purchase.
The current Kenya listing specifies the following accessories for the EPM-50 configuration:
ECG cable
NIBP cuff
SpO₂ sensor
Temperature probe
Power cable
The listing does not include a stand in this configuration.
If a trolley-mounted setup is required, confirm whether a compatible stand is available separately or whether a different EPM-50 package should be supplied.
Depending on configuration, the EPM-50 platform can support additional monitoring capabilities such as:
IBP – invasive blood pressure
EtCO₂ – end-tidal carbon dioxide
These should not be assumed to be included in every EPM-50 unit. Confirm the exact configuration before ordering.
Specifications can vary by EPM-50 configuration, so the exact supplied model and accessories should be confirmed before purchase.
The EcoMed EPM-50 patient monitor is a multiparameter clinical monitor designed to display several physiological measurements on one device.

Yes. The EPM-50 is designed as a multiparameter patient monitor, combining several vital-sign measurements in one system.
The current Kenya listing referenced here is the EPM-50 without a stand. It is designed for desktop or bedside placement.
