Noninvasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) & Digital Pulse Oximeter

The Avant® 2120 is a multi-purpose device offering both noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) and proven SpO2 monitoring - all in one compact, lightweight and easy-to-use portable unit. Offering maximum versatility in patient monitoring, the Avant® 2120 is designed for effortless mobility - by easily attaching the unit to a rolling stand or simply carrying it with its integrated handle. 

Ideal for pediatrics through adults, the 2120 offers an assortment of Nonin sensors and blood pressure cuff sizes to adapt to each patient application.

The NIBP module features an oscillometric blood pressure method providing fast, motion-tolerant readings Oscillation pulsations in the arterial wall are filtered and amplified to create an oscillometric waveform. These readings are not as influenced by ambient noise or conversation like auscultatory devices.

The Avant® 2120 also incorporates Nonin's proven digital pulse oximetry trusted by clinicians worldwide. The SpO2 module provides an accurate assessment of the patient's blood oxygen saturation and pulse rate. You can rely on a dependable, quality reading even with the most challenging of patients.

SphygmoCor

Aortic Blood Pressure Waveform Analysis

The SphygmoCor Aortic BP Profile system is a non-invasive, doctor’s office device for obtaining important clinical cardiovascular data. The system does this by analyzing the blood pressure profile where it really matters – at the heart. The key to the information the system provides lies in the shape of the aortic pressure wave. This waveform imparts important information about the clinical impact of arterial stiffness on key cardiovascular parameters. The SphygmoCor system has transformed cardiovascular evaluation, enhancing patient assessment and management by providing the following information:

Evaluation of systemic arterial stiffness (Aortic Augmentation Index) and its clinical impact on the heart in increasing patient risk of heart failure, stroke and myocardial ischaemia.

Augmentation pressure, which drives left ventricular load (afterload) - a key parameter affecting risk of LV hypertrophy.

Central Pulse pressure in the ascending aorta (driving cerebral blood flow) giving the true pressure, and hence the risk of stroke.

Central systolic pressure, often markedly different from the cuff value.

Ejection duration – a parameter for distinguishing primarily systolic from primarily diastolic dysfunction, and for managing the efficacy of heart failure therapy.

Diastolic pressure-time index (DPTI), a key determinant of coronary blood supply.

Systolic pressure-time index (SPTI), a measure of myocardial oxygen demand.

Subendocardial Viability Ratio – the relationship of DPTI and SPTI, providing a powerful index for risk stratification for myocardial ischaemia.

Clinical Applications

Evaluation of arterial stiffness and its impact on the heart, giving clinicians an increased ability to assess disease progression and patient risk.

Hypertension: Improved patient evaluation in hypertension by providing a more comprehensive cardiovascular assessment allowing more effective treatment and patient management decisions.

Diabetes: Improved patient treatment in diabetes through early identification of 'at risk' diabetes patients.

Heart failure: Differentiation between primarily systolic and primarily diastolic heart failure, and management of the progression of diastolic heart failure.

Titrating Therapy: Monitoring drug interventions by assessing their effects at the heart and titrating therapy accordingly.

Renal: Measures of arterial stiffness have been shown to be powerful independent predictors of mortality in end-stage renal disease.

Research Applications

As a quick, reproducible and non-invasive test, the SphygmoCor system provides a tool that can be easily incorporated into clinical trials.

The versatile nature of the product has lead to its inclusion in clinical trials such as pipeline drug development, discovering early markers for CAD and for ascertaining independent predictors of morbidity and mortality.

With the addition of pulse wave velocity, provides a complete system to assess arterial stiffness and its effects.

The various research areas SphygmoCor has been used in include:

Diabetes – Type 1, Type 2, Insulin resistance, endothelial function

Renal – chronic and end-stage renal disease, transplantation, haemodialysis

Hypertension – ISH, pseudohypertension, etc

Rheumatology

Pregnancy and pre-eclampsia

Preventative and alternative medicine

Heart failure and heart transplantation

Pearl There is growing demand among patients and practitioners for a more aggressive treatment to address wrinkles and uneven texture while minimizing the recovery time experienced from other ablative technologies. With a 2790 nm wavelength, the Pearl laser provides a technology to meet these market demands; maximizing the ratio of cosmetic benefit to patient downtime. Mechanism of action These treatment goals can be achieved with the appropriate technology, wavelength, and settings. Ablation: The safe removal of a portion of the epidermis is achieved with a controlled amount of vaporization. 10-30 microns of epidermis are vaporized in this process. Coagulation: Simultaneously, sufficient heat to produce coagulation is generated in the remaining epidermis. Depending upon selected energy, the coagulation region can vary from partial to full epidermal damage. This coagulation region creates a natural protective dressing on the skin that remains intact during the restorative process. Collagen Remodeling: Finally, residual heat in the dermis generates new collagen growth.
