Product catalog summary
Introduction:
The document introduces the boso ABI-system 100, a medical device designed for early detection of arteriosclerosis, which is crucial in preventing heart attacks and strokes. It emphasizes the system's reliability, economic efficiency, and the option for pulse wave velocity measurement.

Specifications:
The boso ABI-system 100 measures the ankle-brachial index (ABI) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) to assess cardiovascular health. It uses oscillometric blood pressure measurement in all four limbs simultaneously, improving accuracy and saving time compared to the traditional Doppler ultrasound method.

Procedures:
The system allows for routine checks without the need for a doctor, as it is simple enough for other healthcare staff to operate. The measurement process is quick, taking only a minute, and does not require special preparation.

Software and Data Management:
The system includes software that automatically assesses and records patient data, integrating with the doctor's DTP system via a GDT interface. It measures additional cardiovascular parameters, providing a comprehensive health status overview.

Clinical Validation:
The boso ABI-system has been clinically validated and shown to be superior to Doppler-assisted ABI measurement. A study published in Swiss Medical Weekly supports its efficacy.

Technical Data:
The device operates on the principle of oscillometry, with a measurement range of 40 to 240 mmHg and cuff pressure up to 300 mmHg. It requires a Windows XP or higher operating system and includes necessary accessories like arm and leg cuffs, a power pack, and software.

Conclusion:
The boso ABI-system 100 is a valuable tool for early detection and management of cardiovascular diseases, offering significant advantages in terms of accuracy, efficiency, and ease of use.

boso ABI-system 100 The boso ABI-system 100 Outstanding: The boso ABI-system. The boso ABI-system offers many benefits for doctors and patients compared to the previous Doppler ultrasound method. Early detection and routine check In the past, tests were only carried out in cases of suspected disease, because the test was time-consuming and expensive. In addition, PAOD often was not detected early enough as it does not cause any symptoms for a long time. The boso ABI-system is an innovative and rapid way of measuring the ankle-brachial index (ABI). This allows to carry out this test on a large...

The sophisticated software accurately calculates the ABI both on the left and on the right side. Other important cardiovascular parameters are also measured, such as individual blood pressure readings in arms and legs, differences in blood pressure on different sides of the body (subclavian artery stenosis), pulse, pulse pressure, oscillation profile and pointers to possible cardiac dysrhythmia disorders. This information is easily identifiable as all critical values are highlighted in a different colours. Difference between sides (subclavian artery stenosis) Pulse pressure Blood pressure Oscillation...

Arterial stiffness readings provide useful information about the existence of functional arterial more accurate than classical risk parameters such as blood pressure and age. Pulse wave velocity. For a better management of patients with hypertension, tests for arterial stiffness provide additional information about the cardiovascular risk. The recent guidelines published by the Pulse wave velocity is an additional tool to diagnose PAOD and to measure arterial stiffness. European Society of Hypertension (ESH) and the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) recommend the investigation of arterial...
