Hemodynamic monitoring beyond all expectations

Nihon Kohden’s Hemodynamic Unit AP-170P enables PiCCO and ProAQT parameters to be monitored with one unit, and support your therapeutic decision finding.

PiCCO

The PiCCO technology is a combination of the transpulmonary thermodilution method and arterial pulse contour analysis that provides advanced hemodynamic and volumetric management information. The PiCCO method utilizes the standard central venous line in combination with a special PiCCO catheter that has a thermistor located at its tip.

PiCCO

PiCCO indications

  • Septic shock
  • Cardiogenic shock
  • Traumatic shock
  • ARDS
  • Sever burn injuries
  • Pancreatitis
  • High-risk surgical procedures

ProAQT

The ProAQT technology continuously measures arterial pressure transducer and calculates circulatory dynamics trend parameters such as continuous cardiac output trend.

ProAQT

ProAQT indications

  • Perioperative fluid management for goal-directed therapy (GDT) in
    - high-risk patients
    - high-risk procedures
  • Assessment of therapy effect
  • Early recognition of unstable patients
