Transcutaneous patient monitor

tabletopRESPtcpCO2

Supporting less invasive care across the patient journey Accurate, continuous CO2 values regardless of ventilation mean crucial information about patient status is available to inform care at transition points. BENEFITS FOR PATIENTS Less pain Continuous, accurate tcPCO2 information means fewer painful arterial punctures can be performed without sacrificing visibility into patient status. More comfort No cannula is required, and the gently-warming sensor can be left in place for as long as 12 hours at a time. BENEFITS FOR PROVIDERS Continuous information; fewer blood draws Real-time, accurate tcPCO2 data means clinicians can keep a close eye on patient status with fewer painful blood draws. Better accuracy where it matters tcPCO2 has been shown to have better accuracy than end tidal CO2, especially in COPD patients and those on NIV. BENEFITS FOR FACILITIES Cost-savings Fewer blood draws on ventilated patients translates to cost savings on supplies and increased efficiencies in the respiratory care workflow. Support for guideline-based treatment Noninvasive ventilation methods are more important than ever – transcutaneous monitoring lets clinicians choose NIV without settling for CO2 monitoring that is inaccurate or incomplete.
