The GE HealthCare Venue Go™ Point-of-Care Ultrasound System is a flexible, highly portable POCUS platform designed to adapt to the changing demands of emergency medicine, critical care, anesthesiology, vascular access, and other bedside imaging environments. Part of GE HealthCare’s Venue family, Venue Go combines a compact design with a 15.6-inch touchscreen, three wired probe ports, wireless dual-probe connectivity, up to two hours of active battery scanning, and AI-enabled clinical tools. Its unique design allows the system to transition from cart to tabletop to boom-mounted use, giving clinicians the flexibility to bring advanced ultrasound imaging into crowded or space-constrained care areas.
A defining feature of Venue Go is its ability to adapt physically to the point-of-care environment. The system can transition from a traditional mobile cart to a tabletop configuration or boom-mounted installation using a VESA connection. GE HealthCare's Venue Go cradle is designed to make these transitions quick and straightforward.
When used on its cart, a small footprint and large casters help clinicians maneuver the system between beds, equipment, and other obstacles commonly encountered in emergency departments and intensive care units. For locations where floor space is limited, the tabletop and boom options provide alternatives to a conventional ultrasound cart.
Venue Go incorporates AI-enabled and automated tools from the Venue family to help clinicians obtain measurements, standardize assessments, and reduce repetitive manual tasks. GE HealthCare designed these tools for use by clinicians across a range of ultrasound experience levels.
Real-Time EF continuously calculates ejection fraction during live scanning in the apical four-chamber view without requiring an ECG. An integrated quality indicator helps the user identify an appropriate view for generating the measurement.
This provides clinicians with rapid quantitative information about left ventricular systolic function during focused cardiac ultrasound examinations.
Venue Go provides dedicated tools for point-of-care lung assessment. Auto B-lines supports automated B-line evaluation, while the Lung Diagram provides a single-view representation of anatomical lung segments for streamlined image storage and documentation.
Lung Sweep extends pulmonary assessment by rapidly generating a dynamic, panoramic visualization of the lung, providing clinicians with another method for reviewing lung anatomy and findings at the bedside.
Venue Go supports eFAST examinations for rapid trauma assessment. The integrated eFAST Diagram helps clinicians assess and document findings associated with conditions such as internal bleeding and pneumothorax.
Combined with cardiac, lung, abdominal, and vascular imaging capabilities, these tools make Venue Go well suited to emergency environments where clinicians may need to evaluate several organ systems quickly without moving the patient to a dedicated imaging department.
For vascular access procedures, Catheter-to-Vessel Ratio provides a measurement tool designed to assist clinicians in selecting an appropriately sized catheter based on vessel diameter.
The system's compatible high-frequency transducers can also provide visualization of superficial vessels and surrounding anatomy during line placement and other ultrasound-guided procedures.
Venue Go includes workflow tools for bedside renal and urinary assessment. The Renal Diagram provides simplified documentation and follow-up for patients with suspected hydronephrosis.
Venue-family imaging capabilities also support bladder imaging, allowing clinicians to incorporate urinary assessment into point-of-care workflows without transporting the patient to another department.
Venue Go provides three wired probe ports plus wireless dual-probe connectivity, giving clinicians access to multiple transducers without repeatedly disconnecting and exchanging probes.
Compatible Venue-family probes support imaging across adult and pediatric patient populations and can be selected for applications such as:
This flexibility allows a single Venue Go system to serve multiple departments and point-of-care applications.
Venue Go is designed specifically for clinicians who need ultrasound to move with them. Its compact footprint helps it navigate tight spaces, while the battery provides up to two hours of active scanning away from AC power.
An easy-to-see, color-changing battery indicator provides a visual indication of remaining power, helping clinicians determine when the system needs to be recharged.
GE HealthCare's Ready, Scan, Go™ workflow is designed to streamline the steps surrounding the ultrasound examination. Supported capabilities include Imprivata™ badge scanning, patient wristband barcode scanning, and reporting integration with ViewPoint™ 6. GE HealthCare reports a 79% time savings in an internal study evaluating the Venue-family encounter-based workflow with ViewPoint 6 POC Module.
These capabilities can help departments reduce manual patient-entry and documentation steps while supporting secure point-of-care imaging workflows.
Venue Go's 15.6-inch touchscreen is designed to support thorough cleaning and infection-control efforts. Smart cable management keeps as many as three active probes organized and accessible while helping protect transducers and reduce cable clutter.
The system can also be raised and rotated to improve viewing position and scanning ergonomics. Combined with its cart, tabletop, and boom configurations, this allows departments to adapt the system to both the clinician and available workspace.
The GE HealthCare Venue Go is ideal for:
