AtCor Medical provides a comprehensive range non-invasive technologies and related services for measuring central blood pressure and arterial stiffness. They offer SphygmoCor CP systems that help to record the cardiovascular data.
SphygmoCor CP systems are portable devices, which are widely used by clinicians, patient carers and researchers. They help to measure the pressures of the heart, kidney and brain. Assessments made by the medical devices are simple, fast comfortable and painless. Components included in these devices are SphygmoCor software integrated to users’ computer, Miller pressure tonometer and signal processing electronics module. Prior to doing measurements with these SphygmoCor CP systems the brachial blood pressure should be taken. The tonometer records the radial pulse waveform. Once the tonometer is pressed against the pulse in the radial artery the waveform is recorded.
The cardiovascular data is recorded on the computer and it can be viewed by the operator. This data is immediately captured by the operator to provide automatic results. Thus the analysis done with these portable SphygmoCor provides results about the average aortic waveform, pressure measurements and central key parameters along with the graphical representation. Details regarding quality control are also well displayed in these systems.
