Extend Protection to the Cath Lab
Though catheterization is a minimally invasive procedure, it still carries ischemic risks. Catheters have to be inserted into blood vessels of patients who are frequently suffering from heart disease. The risk of arrhythmias or reductions in blood flow is common and patients may be sedated or anesthetized. The INVOS® System provides continuous, real time readings of both brain and body, giving you early detection of perfusion/oxygenation abnormalities so you can intervene in time to prevent a downward spiral. What's more:
- It supports optimal patient management. The INVOS® System's site-specific oxygen trends facilitate adjunct management of ventilatory status, airway patency, efficacy of sedation, potential flow disturbances and adequacy of brain perfusion.
- It provides confidence during high-risk procedures. The INVOS® System provides continuous and real time site-specific insights as ischemic risk heightens. For instance, when balloon and occluder devices are deployed to repair atrial septal defects, ventricular septal defect or aortic and pulmonary stenosis.
