## Indications for use
PeriFlux 6000 equipped with PF 6010 is intended for measuring micro-vascular perfusion in skin and muscle in humans. It is also intended for measuring micro-vascular perfusion in all tissues in animals for research purposes. The PF 6010 is also intended for evaluating tissue response in skin to local heating and providing temperature stabilization of skin at blood perfusion measurement. PeriFlux 6000 equipped with PF 6050 is intended for measuring the pressure in blood pressure cuffs, to simplify simultaneous measurements of perfusion and pressure when used in conjunction with a laser Doppler perfusion monitor. PeriFlux 6000 equipped with PF 6050 is also intended for Pulse Volume Recording (PVR) on human limbs and digits for diagnosis and evaluation of vascular disease in adults. It is not intended for use on neonates and pregnant women. PeriFlux 6000 equipped with PF 6040 is intended for continuous non-invasive transcutaneous monitoring of the partial pressures of oxygen and/or carbon dioxide. It is intended for use on neonates, pediatrics, and adults not under gas anesthesia.
