Acumen IQ cuff Acumen IQ cuff unlocks Acumen Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) software and provides continuous blood pressure and advanced haemodynamic parameters from a noninvasive finger cuff. Acumen IQ cuff gives you noninvasive access to calculated beat-to-beat haemodynamic information for a broad patient population, including patients in whom an arterial line would not typically be placed. Parameters-HPI I Eadyn I dP/dt I CO/CI I SV/SVI I SVV I SVR/SVRI I MAP ClearSight cuff ClearSight cuff provides continuous blood pressure and advanced haemodynamic parameters from a noninvasive finger cuff. Continuous data enables you to proactively optimise perfusion through haemodynamic management. Parameters-CO/CI | SV/SVI | SVV | SVR/SVRI | MAP ForeSight tissue oximetry sensor ForeSight system is a highly accurate, precise, and tailorable tissue oximetry system for continuous monitoring. Reliable, real-time monitoring of surgical patients provides decision support for detecting and managing hypoxic events as soon as they occur. Parameters-StO2 Acumen IQ sensor Acumen IQ sensor unlocks the Acumen Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) software. This first-of-its-kind predictive decision support software detects the likelihood of a patient trending towards a hypotensive event*. It also attaches to any existing radial arterial line and automatically calculates key parameters every 20 seconds, reflecting rapid physiologic changes in surgical and nonsurgical patients. Parameters-HPI | Eadyn | dP/dt | CO/CI | SV/SVI | SVV/PPV | SVR/SVRI | MAP FloTrac sensor Delivers advanced pressure and flow parameters for managing perfusion. Offers continuous insight to determine a patient s haemodynamic status. Seamlessly connects to any existing arterial catheter. Parameters-CO/CI | SV/SVI | SVR/SVRI | SVV/PPV | MAP The Swan-Ganz catheter, with the FastCCO algorithm, enables CO and SV parameters every 20 seconds Swan-Ganz pulmonary artery catheters provide flow, pressure, and oxygen delivery and consumption parameters. With the FastCCO algorithm, CO and SV update every 20 seconds, giving you a faster, continuous view of cardiac function for more proactive decision support in your most complex patients.
