Read the full statement (126 words)

The Medi-Stim VeriQ System is an intraoperative diagnostic system that utilizes ultrasonography to guide surgeons to successfully plan and accomplish surgical interventions. The clinical indications for the device are:

1. Accurate transit time blood volume and Doppler velocity flow measurements during cardiovascular-, vascular-, transplantation- and neuro-surgery.

2. Simultaneous measurements of blood pressure, vascular resistance, interfaced physiological signals and other derived parameters during these procedures.

3. Detection of normal and abnormal blood volume and Doppler velocity flow patterns during these procedures.

4. Provides guidance to prepare surgical plans at the initiation of surgery and to support the successful accomplishment of surgery including detection and location of vessels during surgical procedures.

5. Detection and quantification of the degree of stenosis in arteries by using the Doppler velocity profile.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
