Alpha
Wave Inducer
The Alpha Wave Inducer is a device meant
to induce sleep in most humanoids. It is not meant to replace natural sleep,
and cannot be used frequently. Itt is an electronic version of an anesthetic.
Subject enters a deep dreamless sleep during which surgical procedures
can be carried out without causing pain to the subject.
Anabolic
Protoplasers
These devices are used to heal internal
and external body damage without the need of opening the body cavity of
the patient to effect repairs. They use small forcefields, phase-modulated
lasers, and anabolic accelerators to quickly heal injuries without scarring.
They come in a variety of sizes for different repairs. Smaller units are
useful for fine work involving the eyes and ears, while larger units heal
cuts and even broken bones. They temporarily confer the advantage of Instant
Regeneration to the area treated, but cannot replace surgery in serious
injuries. For example, if used on a very deep stab wound, they could seal
the damaged tissues and prevent further blood loss, but a subcutaneous
hole would remain unless closed with surgery. This device will not repair
incidental damage resulting from the original injury. For example, an officer
who has been stabbed may have the wound repaired in sickbay in 15 minutes,
but will still have to deal with the blood loss.
ARA
Scanner

status. Restraining fields are available on some models.
Bioimplant
Artificial organic material that can be
surgically implanted into a person's body to replace damaged tissue.
Bioregenerative
Field

of Instant Regeneration on patients.
Hypospray
The Hypospray is a hand-held device used
for subcutaneous and intravenous administration of carefully-controlled
dosages of medication on a subject. The Hypospray injects the subject by
use of a pinpoint, high-pressure, low-volume, microscopic, aerosuspension
stream. It allows medication to be given through the skin or clothing without
mechanical penetration. It takes one second to remove and one to replace
a medicine vial. The air cartridge is good for 100 injections.
Inhibitor
Field

with an extra external medical probe and scanner attachment. It has the
following capabilities:
Biosampler
Bioscanner
Chemscanner
Datalink
Environmental Analysis
Medscanner
Multiscanner
Radscanner
For its size, the Medical Tricorder can
maintain and store vast amounts of data in its own memory, which it uses
to help evaluate conditions on site.
The Medical Tricorder has an external hand-held
sensing device.
This peripheral contains over 100 sensors,
and the Tricorder contains a specialized medical database that provides
detailed medical diagnostic tools in the field including tomographic and
micrographic imaging. A small diagnosis wand fits into the top of the peripheral
and is occasionally used by the physician to provide close high-resolution
scans.
Together, these sensors allow the Medical
Tricorder to make very detailed diagnosis on known species. On unknown
species, it is limited to telling if the life-form is sick or dying. A
detailed analysis is not possible in such a situation. Effective range
is about three yards.

All doses of any drug type are contained
in vials that must be inserted into the Hypospray. The standard kit may
be altered to suit missions or situations, but must be altered before the
mission begins. For example, if the doctor knows that he is going into
a combat zone, he may replace the 3 vials of Panamyacin with more Hyronalyn
or Analgine.

info on the Medical Tricorder and/or Tricorder for any further info.
Pulmonary
Support Unit
Emergency cardiopulmonary support unit
in use aboard Federation starships.
Scalpels
There are three varieties to choose from:
traditional cutting blades with a monomolecular edge, laser scalpels that
cauterize as they cut, and nanotech scalpels that separate tissues along
cellular lines without damage. Each has different uses.
Laser scalpels help the surgeon because
of bloodlessness, but can dazzle anyone unwary enough to look into the
beam, even though the scalpel can only cut within its focal length.
Monomolecular blades require no power supply
and quickly slice through most matter with minimal effort.
Finally, Nanotech scalpels cause minimal
disruption of tissue but operate slowly.
There is current research in an experimental
scalpel that utilizes Transporter technology.

Field Chamber
Used when Stasis is required for a period
longer than what can be accomplished using the Stasis Field Generator.
Stasis
Field Generator
This device is used in emergencies when
a patient cannot be stabilized and requires treatment that is not immediately
available. It significantly slows all biological activity within the perimeter
of the field, placing the patient in a sort of suspended animation. The
patient will not be aware of any passage of time while under the influence
of a stasis unit, since the biochemical activity of the patient's brain
is effectively halted. Can be used for short periods of time only.
