Potrero AccurynMonitoring System for Foley Catheter

SHARE

The Accuryn Monitoring System transforms the traditional Foley catheter into a next-generation sensor for accurate, real-time measurement of urine output (UO), intra-abdominal pressure (IAP), and core body temperature (Temp) to help guide care.

precision fluid management starts with automated urine output.

Close to 300,000 people die every year  from Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in the U.S.

Critically ill patients need consistent monitoring but without the right tools clinicians don`t know when the kidneys are in danger.

Studies have shown that intensive urine output monitoring helped detect AKI and improved outcomes. Yet, 74% of all patients do not receive intensive urinary output monitoring due to its difficulty.

Airlocks and dependent loops make the situation worse by causing urine to stop and remain motionless in the tubing.

Unlike traditional systems, Accuryn automates urine output using patented active drain line clearance. Accuryn`s system is also designed to prevent backflow.

This allows Accuryn to help prevent retained urine and reduces false oliguria.

intra-abdominal pressure at the push of a button.

Intra-Abdominal Hypertension (IAH) and Abdominal Compartment Syndrome (ACS) are a major cause of multi-organ failure in critically ill patients.

IAH has a prevalence of at least 50% of ICU patients and is an independent risk factor for death, with 5% progressing to Abdominal Compartment Syndrome .*¹ *²  

Each time a patient progresses to ACS, hospitals lost approximately $598,000 for emergent surgery to save a patient from death.*³

Accuryn`s smart sensing Foley has a built-in sensor at the tip of the catheter and can provide realtime IAP measurements all at the simple push of a button.
