Portable ABI Kit
The ABI is an easy, noninvasive exam for peripheral arterial disease (PAD) screening. This exam is recommended by the American Diabetes Association, the American Heart Association, the American College of Cardiology and the American College of Physicians as a basic screening examination for PAD.
Arterial Inflow System
The AI6 is the ideal arterial inflow system for researchers who want a completely automated system with everything needed to perform the most advanced strain gauge plethysmography testing available today. Using built in protocols you control the variables and can easily replicate the test with multiple patients. You can create your own standard protocols easily and save them for future use. The AI6 is the solution for simplifying and automating bilateral limb bloodflow studies. Once the protocols are set to your specifications and the patient prepared the AI6 does the rest for you. An ECG input is used to synchronize the venous occlusion cuff with the patient’s heart beat to improve the consistency of the measurements. An invasive arterial line can be used to calculate arterial resistance. All testing is bilateral and some researchers use one limb as the control for the experiment. There is a wide range of test protocol options, all in the researcher’s control.
MD6 Doppler with Detachable Transducer
This “twin” to the MD6 Doppler has a detachable cable that is 6 feet (1.8 meters) long. The controls and re-chargeable battery are identical to the MD6 Doppler. It can also be used with the MD6VR chart recorder for printing waveforms. Handheld or pocket Dopplers: the MD6 and the MD6 with Detachable Transducer Dopplers are ideal for locating difficult to find pulses or checking post operative pulses on vascular stents or revascularized sites.
Rapid Cuff Inflation System
Improve your duplex scanning for Venous Reflux or Venous Insufficiency with the Rapid Cuff Inflation System. Get reproducible results and catch the reflux missed when using either Valsalva or hand augmentation. The Hokanson E20 eliminates squatting to squeeze the patient’s leg, compressing all of the soft tissue, holding it for precisely the correct amount of time and rapidly releasing the pressure while you scan the leg for venous reflux. There is no need for a second person to do the compression, reducing the expense of performing this test. The E20 inflates any cuff in 0.3 sec, holds the pressure indefinitely or for whatever time your protocol needs and then instantaneously deflates the cuff. It works every time no matter the size of the cuff or limb. Simply dial in the pressure needed and push the button for inflation and then push the button to deflate.
Toe Pressure Kit with Photo Plethysmography
Toe Pressures are an excellent peripheral arterial check for diabetic patients, especially those with wounds or ulcers on their legs or feet. This easy to use kit is completely portable and you can document the associated waveform for comparison over time. Great for evaluating patients with calcified vessels, non-healing wounds, diabetic feet or people who need toe pressures.
