Validated, connected and patented hemodynamic solutions

Neurology
For over 30 years Finapres systems have been used by neurologists and researchers to understand better autonomic failure, syncope and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS). Many studies using Finapres systems have been performed to show subjects’ neurological reactions, such as autonomic failure. The Finometer® and Portapres® systems are proven tools for diagnosing syncope in patients and for documenting progress due to treatment.

Head-up tilt table (HUT) testing is one of the most common ways to diagnose vasovagal syncope (fainting) especially when earlier diagnoses have been uncertain. Patients suffer generally from a combination of two reactions: a drop in heart rate followed by a drop in blood pressure (cardioinhibitory response) and/or a drop in blood pressure due to arterial dilatation (vasodepressor response). Both reactions can be monitored and analyzed using our Finometer® or Portapres® systems.

Insight in your patients’ baroreflex sensitivity
Insight in your patients’ baroreflex sensitivity

Baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) is an important parameter in for example essential hypertension, obesity, pregnancy and symptomatic carotid artery disease. The Finometer® and Portapres® systems are easily and accurately used to assess a patient’s BRS. The hemodynamic parameters are obtained by non-invasive beat-to-beat blood pressure measurements in combination with powerful algorithms within our BeatScope® software.
