HemoSphere Advanced Monitoring Platform, HemoSphere ForeSight Oximeter cable

The HemoSphere Advanced Monitor when used with the HemoSphere Swan-Ganz Module and Edwards Swan-Ganz Catheters is indicated for use in adult and pediatric critical care patients requiring monitoring of cardiac output [continuous (CO) and intermittent (iCO)] and derived hemodynamic parameters. Pulmonary artery blood temperature monitoring is used to compute continuous and intermittent CO with thermodilution technologies. It may also be used for monitoring hemodynamic parameters in conjunction with a perioperative goal directed therapy protocol in a hospital environment. Refer to the Edwards Swan-Ganz catheter indications for use statement for information on target patient population specific to the catheter being used.

Refer to the Intended Use statement below for a complete list of measured and derived parameters available for each patient population.

The HemoSphere Advanced Monitor when used with the HemoSphere Oximetry Cable and Edwards oximetry catheters is indicated for use in adult and pediatric critical care patients requiring monitoring of venous oxygen saturation (SvO2 and Scv02) and derived hemodynamic parameters in a hospital environment. Refer to the Edwards oximetry catheter indications for use statement for information on target patient population specific to the catheter being used.

Refer to the Intended Use statement for a complete list of measured and derived parameters available for each patient population.

The HemoSphere Advanced Monitor when used with the HemoSphere Pressure Cable is indicated for use in critical care patients in which the balance between cardiac function, fluid status, vascular resistance and pressure needs continuous assessment. It may be used for monitoring hemodynamic parameters in conjunction with a perioperative goal directed therapy protocol in a hospital environment. Refer to the Edwards FloTrac, Acumen 1Q, and TruWave DPT sensor indications for use statement for information on target patient population specific to the sensor being used.

The Edwards Lifesciences Acumen Hypotension Prediction Index feature provides the clinician with physiological insight into a patient’s likelihood of future hypotensive events (defined as mean arterial pressure < 65 mmHg for at least one minute in duration) and the associated hemodynamics. The Acumen HPI feature is intended for use in surgical or non-surgical patients receiving advanced hemodynamic monitoring. The Acumen HPI feature is considered to be additional quantitative information regarding the patient’s physiological condition for reference only and no therapeutic decisions should be made based solely on the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) parameter.

Refer to the Intended Use statement for a complete list of measured and derived parameters available for each patient population.

The Acumen Assisted Fluid Management (AFM) software feature provides the clinician with physiological insight into a patient's estimated response to fluid therapy and the associated hemodynamics. The Acumen AFM software feature is intended for use in surgical patients >18 years of age, that require advanced hemodynamic monitoring. The Acumen AFM software feature offers suggestions regarding the patient's physiological condition and estimated response to fluid therapy.

Acumen AFM fluid administration suggestions are offered to the clinician; the decision to administer a fluid bolus is made by the clinician, based upon review of the patient's hemodynamics. No therapeutic decisions should be made based solely on the Assisted Fluid Management suggestions.

The noninvasive ForeSight Oximeter Cable is intended for use as an adjunct monitor of absolute regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation of blood under the sensors in individuals at risk for reduced-flow or no-flow ischemic states. The ForeSight Oximeter Cable is also intended to monitor relative changes of total hemoglobin of blood under the sensors. The ForeSight Oximeter Cable is intended to allow for the display of StO2 and relative change in total hemoglobin on the HemoSphere advanced monitor.

» When used with large sensors, the ForeSight Oximeter Cable is indicated for use on adults and transitional adolescents >40 kg.

» When used with medium sensors, the ForeSight Oximeter Cable is indicated for use on pediatric subjects >3 kg.

» When used with small sensors, the ForeSight Oximeter Cable is indicated for cerebral use on pediatric subjects <8 kg and non-cerebral use on pediatric subjects <Skg.

Refer to the Intended Use statement for a complete list of measured and derived parameters available for each patient population.

The HemoSphere Advanced Monitor when used with the HemoSphere ClearSight module, pressure controller and a compatible Edwards finger cuff are indicated for patients over 18 years of age in which the balance between cardiac function, fluid status and vascular resistance needs continuous assessment. It may be used for monitoring hemodynamic parameters in conjunction with a perioperative goal directed therapy protocol in a hospital environment. In addition, the noninvasive system is indicated for use in patients with co-morbidities for which hemodynamic optimization is desired and invasive measurements are difficult. The HemoSphere advanced monitor and compatible Edwards' finger cuffs noninvasively measures blood pressure and associated hemodynamic parameters.

The Edwards Lifesciences Acumen Hypotension Prediction Index feature provides the clinician with physiological insight into a patient’s likelihood of future hypotensive events (defined as mean arterial pressure < 65 mmHg for at least one minute in duration) and the associated hemodynamics. The Acumen HPI feature is intended for use in surgical patients receiving advanced hemodynamic monitoring. The Acumen HPI feature is considered to be additional quantitative information regarding the patient’s physiological condition for reference only and no therapeutic decisions should be made based solely on the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) parameter.
