Proactive patient insights for smart recovery

Haemodynamic and tissue oximetry insights provided by HemoSphere advanced monitoring platform can help guide you with proactive decision support throughout the continuum of care so you can maintain optimal patient perfusion.

Cerebral desaturations icon

Cerebral and tissue desaturations

Cerebral and tissue desaturations are serious and may lead to complications such as post-operative cognitive dysfunction and increased incidence of stroke. Having a comprehensive picture of oxygen delivery and consumption may allow you to reduce the clinical implications of prolonged desaturations.

Sepsis management icon

Sepsis and shock

Severe sepsis and septic shock are among the most common causes of morbidity and mortality in patients admitted to the intensive care unit. Access to cardiac output (CO) and stroke volume (SV) enables early detection and management of sepsis which is critical to improving survival rates and reducing the economic burden of sepsis.

Hypotension icon

Hypotension

Hypotension is common. Studies show strong associations between intraoperative hypotension (IOH) and increased risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) and myocardial injury, which is the leading cause of post-operative mortality within 30 days after surgery. Early detection of hypotension by continuous haemodynamic monitoring can reduce a patient’s risk.7-10

Haemodynamic instability icon

Haemodynamic instability

HemoSphere advanced monitoring platform enables access to continuous pressure and flow parameters, helping to determine patient fluid responsiveness and guide individualised fluid management targets.1,11-14 Proactive monitoring of stroke volume (SV) and stroke volume variation (SVV) have been shown to effectively optimise patient fluid resuscitation and guide proper fluid administration.1,11,12

Advanced parameter capability

Comprehensive data keeps you one step ahead in a rapidly changing environment, enabling you to make decisions proactively, maintaining patient safety.
