Description

From Edwards Life Sciences

When used with the Vigileo monitor, FloTrac sensor provides continuous cardiac output (CCO), stroke volume (SV), stroke volume variation (SVV), and systemic vascular resistance (SVR)* through an existing arterial line. The FloTrac system provides insight to make critical decisions earlier and more efficiently for patients previously monitored with traditional vital signs alone.

  • Easy to use, accurate and less invasive.
  • Connects to an existing arterial catheter.
  • Performs continuous self-calibration through its automatic vascular tone adjustment.
  • Calculates key flow parameters every 20 seconds.
  • Continuously monitors changes in patient’s vascular tone (compliance and resistance).
  • Validated against the clinical gold-standard Swan-Ganz pulmonary artery catheter.

*Derived with CVP
