Validated, connected and patented hemodynamic solutions

Optimal accuracy
The Finometer® PRO is a stand-alone solution for accurate non-invasive beat-to-beat blood pressure monitoring. The Finometer® PRO incorporates the patented Modelflow® technology providing hemodynamic parameters such as stroke volume, total peripheral resistance and cardiac output as well as pulse rate (variability) and baroreflex sensitivity analysis. The Finometer® PRO is widely used in clinical settings and advanced scientific research. The absolute accuracy of the Finometer® PRO can be calibrated with an upper arm cuff measurement using the patented Return To Flow (RTF) technology. Recently the Finometer® passed the AAMI/SP10 and BHS protocols*. Optional software offers online monitoring, storage, analysis and review of acquired data. The Finometer® PRO can be used in combination with the optional ECG module.

Accuracy

The Finometer® PRO is designed for optimal accuracy. The technology behind the Finometer® PRO can calibrate the reconstructed blood pressure on set intervals against brachial measurements using an upper arm cuff. The accuracy of the Finometer® findings are reported in numerous articles comparing the Finometer® results with intra-arterial findings*. Furthermore the Finometer® PRO has been validated using the Rica-Rocci Korotkoff method*. The Modelflow® cardiac output has been validated against thermodilution cardiac output in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery**.
