Hemodynamic Monitoring System

The Vigilance CCO/SvO2/CEDV Monitor provides clinicians a complete picture of blood circulation in a patient's heart using a single system. Such hemodynamic monitoring data help clinicians make more rapid decisions when treating patients in hospital emergency rooms, and surgical and critical care settings.

It is the first system to provide automatic, continuous measurement of a patient's end diastolic volume (EDV), cardiac output (CO) and mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2). It allows continuous, hands-free measurements, providing clinicians a more complete picture to guide a therapeutic course and ensure that oxygenated blood is delivered to all vital organs, and that rapid response and course correction is possible, if needed. The system is designed to work in conjunction with the company's CCOmbo catheter technology.
