An early warning indicator of tissue hypoxia. Continuous Scv02 monitoring with the PreSep oximetry catheter

Are your vital signs telling you everything? Valuable time may be lost before traditional vital signs or intermittent ScvO2 samplings indicate tissue hypoxia – potentially delaying intervention and putting the patient at greater risk. Continuously monitoring central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2), through the PreSep oximetry catheter, enables the early detection and management of tissue hypoxia. 1-5 ScvO2 = Early Warning and Prevention Hemodynamic Trends 150 ECG 100 50 90 MAP 60 30 10 CVP 5 0 PreSep Oligon oximetry catheter with integrated antimicrobial protection† SpO2 100 75 ScvO2 50 25...

ScvO2 monitoring of at-risk patients. The prognostic value of ScvO22 has been demonstrated in post-op high-risk surgeries,9 trauma,4 sepsis,8,10 cardiac failure in CHF 5,10 and recovery in cardiac arrest.11,12 High-risk surgery Reductions in ScvO2 are common after major surgery and are independently associated with post-operative complications.9 ScvO2 monitoring in high-risk surgery has multiple applications in the intra- and post-op stages, including: • Risk for high blood loss, such as hepatic resections, trauma, vascular cases • High fluid shifts in gastrointestinal cases • Toleration of...

Sepsis Evidence-based protocols, such as Early Goal-Directed Therapy (EGDT), have been shown to be effective at improving patient costs and outcomes, including significant reductions in sepsis-related mortality. EGDT with the PreSep oximetry catheter has been shown to: • Reduce in-hospital mortality by 34% in adult patients with severe sepsis and septic shock when used with Early Goal-Directed Therapy 2,8 • Reduce in-hospital length-of-stay by 3.8 days2,8 • Reduce hospital charges by $12,000 18 Screen Early for At-Risk Patients 2 Signs of the Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) 8...

Balance of oxygen delivery and consumption for high-risk surgical, intensive care and sepsis patients. In the critically ill, traditional vital signs may be late indicators of compromised or inadequate oxygen delivery to the tissues. Continuous ScvO2 monitoring is key to assessing the adequacy of the balance of oxygen delivery and consumption. The goal of continuous ScvO2 monitoring with the PreSep oximetry catheter is to bring into balance the relationship between oxygen consumption and oxygen delivery to improve the care of high-acuity patients.13 ScvO2 Oxygen Delivery Cardiac Output...

;16cm length available in the U.S. only. **PreSep catheters are designed for use with Edwards Lifesciences oximetry monitors and 0M2 Optics Modules to continuously monitor Scv02. PreSep catheters are available with AMC Thromboshield, an antibacterial heparin coating that decreases viable microbe count on the surface of product during handling and placement. + PreSep Oligon oximetry catheters contain an integrated Oligon antimicrobial material. The activity of the antimicrobial material is localized at the catheter surfaces and is not intended for treatment of systemic infections. In vitro...
