Product catalog summary
Introduction
Transonic Systems Inc. is a global leader in biomedical measurement equipment, specializing in transit-time ultrasound flowmeters and monitors for various medical applications, including vascular surgery.

Vascular Flowprobes
The OptiMax® family of Flowprobes is designed for intraoperative volume flow measurement in vessels ranging from 0.5 mm to 20 mm. These probes help detect blood flow obstructions, allowing surgeons to address potential issues before completing surgery. The Flowprobes come in two reflector shapes, J and L, and sizes from 4 mm to 12 mm, accommodating different surgical needs and patient anatomies.

Flowprobe Designs
- Handle Flowprobes (FMV-Series and FME-Series): Available in sizes from 1.5 mm to 14 mm, these probes feature a J-style reflector for ultrasound flow sensing and a flexible neck for optimal positioning. The FME series is specifically designed for carotid endarterectomy with an L-style reflector.
- Non-Handle (Basic) Flowprobes: These are available in sizes from 2 mm to 14 mm and feature a sliding cover for extended measurements.

Optima Flow-QC® Flowmeter
The Optima Flow-QC® Flowmeter offers high-resolution transit-time ultrasound flow measurement, enhancing accuracy for low flows. It supports the use of Vascular Flowprobes in various surgeries, with sizes ranging from 1.5 mm to 14 mm.

AureFlo® System
This system continuously measures, displays, records, and documents absolute volume flow and other parameters. It is compatible with the HT363 dual-channel Optima Flowmeter, allowing simultaneous measurements with two Flowprobes.

Vascular Flowprobes-1

Vascular Surgery Vascular Flowprobes Transonic’s Vascular Flowprobes measure volume flows intraoperatively in vessels from 0.5 mm to 20 mm to detect blood flow obstructions before leaving the operating room. This ability to correct otherwise undetectable flow restrictions provides the surgeon with a unique opportunity to improve the outcome for his or her patient. Fig. 1: Handle Flowprobes: FMV-Series and FME-Series sizes from 1.5 mm to 14 mm. The FMV-Series simple J-style-style reflector defines the ultrasound flow sensing window, holds ultrasound couplant gel in place, and maintains the vessel in alignment with the probe. A flexible neck allows positioning of the probe head to conform to vessel orientation. On vessels where there is concern that compression may loosen calcified plaque, -FME carotid endarterectomy Flowprobes with an L-style reflector can be used. Non-constrictive reflectors: Ultrasonic sensing window OptiMax Flowprobes also offer two reflector shapes and five sizes to accommodate different surgical preferences and patient anatomies. The skin tabs secure the Flowprobe so that continuous measurements can guide vascular constructions, banding or revisions. After the target flow is attained and the procedure is completed, the Probe can then be quickly removed. The “L”-reflector Flowprobe design allows the probe to be slipped on and off a carotid artery easily, facilitating quick preand post-procedure measurements. Non-handle (Basic) Flowprobes Non-Handle Flowprobes (FSB-Series) feature an ultrasonic flowsensing window defined by a L-bracket with a sliding closure. When the L-bracket is closed, the Flowprobe can remain positioned around the vessel for extended measurements.

Sliding cover Fig. 3: The OptiMax® family with J reflectors (shown) and L reflectors (not shown) are available in 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 mm.
