Unlocks two predictive algorithms
Access Acumen Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) software and Acumen Assisted Fluid Management (AFM) software.*
Acumen IQ sensor
The Critical Care product group is now part of BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company). Edwards Lifesciences is the manufacturer of the products.
Acumen IQ sensor provides continuous access to predictive decision support for both surgical and nonsurgical cases. This smart sensor unlocks the ability to predict hemodynamic instability and optimize pressure and flow.
Attaches to any arterial line
Automatically calculates key parameters every 20 seconds when attached to any existing arterial line.
Enables individualized patient care
Acumen IQ sensor is part of an advanced hemodynamic family of solutions that help guide individualized treatment decisions.
*Acumen IQ sensor is indicated for surgical and nonsurgical patients when using with Acumen HPI software. It is only indicated for surgical patients when using with Acumen AFM software.
Experience the power of predictive decision support
Stay ahead of hypotension
Acumen IQ sensor unlocks Acumen HPI software, which is designed to help you predict and treat hypotension. A multicenter, prospective, observational study across 5 countries demonstrated patients monitored with Acumen IQ sensor and Acumen HPI software experienced a low incidence, duration and severity of intraoperative hypotension.*1
*Hypotension defined as >1 min below MAP 65 mmHg.
Keep your surgical patients in the optimal fluid range
Acumen IQ sensor also unlocks Acumen AFM software, which predicts a patient’s responsiveness to fluid. Throughout a procedure, Acumen AFM software adapts to each patient, learning from each bolus to optimize and make its future recommendations. With Acumen IQ fluid meter, you can automatically track volume administration and flow rate in real time.
