BANDAGES
Starfleet's Medical department has a wide variety of bandage
options.
Simple bandages made of sterile, inert materials that do not bind
with
clotting wounds are common. Dermapatch is available in a spray
applicator, or in larger pre-formed pieces.
BASILAR ARTERIAL SCAN
Medical diagonistic test. A basilar arterial scan evaluates the
arteries
in the brainsteam
BERYLITE SCAN
Medical proceedure used aboard Federation starships.
BICARIDINE TREATMENT
Regenerative therapy for fracture patients. It is used for
patients who
are allergic to Metorapan.
BIOBED
A key element to the medical intensive-care unit is the biobed
sensor
and support unit. An orthopedically designed hospital bed
incorporates
a basic array of biofunction sensors that monitors all bodily
systems,
and can also be tied into a variety of remote medical instruments
including the tricorder. Also incorporated are a number of
medical gas
and fluid connect points for various devices, including the
surgical
support frame. The bed is raised to allow the doctor to
comfortably
examine the patient. It has a graphic display at the head which
gives
the patient's current status. Restraining fields are available on
some
models.
BIOIMPLANT
Artificial organic material that can be surgically implanted into
the
person's body to
replace damaged tissue.
BIOREGENERATIVE FIELD
A Bioregenerative Field is an energy field used to accelerate
cellular
growth. It temporarily confers the advantage of Regeneration on
the
patient. A sterilite unit is typically used during this procedure
to
keep infection from being multiplied by the Bioregenerative
Field.
BLOOD - GAS INFUSER
Medical instrument used to stabilize oxygen levels of a patient
in
respiratory distress
BLOOD SCREENING
Medical test used by Federation personnel to identify shape -
shifters.
BRAIN - CIRCUITRY PATTERN
Medical diagonistic image mapping neural activity in a humaniod
brain
