What is it indicated for?
The Global Hypoperfusion Index (GHI) algorithm provides the clinician with physiological insight into a patient's likelihood of future hemodynamic instability. The GHI algorithm provides the risk of a global hypoperfusion event (defined as SvO2 < 60% for at least 1 minute) occurring in the next 10-15 minutes. The GHI algorithm is intended for use in surgical or non-surgical patients receiving advanced hemodynamic monitoring with the Swan-Ganz catheter.…

The Global Hypoperfusion Index (GHI) algorithm provides the clinician with physiological insight into a patient's likelihood of future hemodynamic instability. The GHI algorithm provides the risk of a global hypoperfusion event (defined as SvO2 < 60% for at least 1 minute) occurring in the next 10-15 minutes.
The GHI algorithm is intended for use in surgical or non-surgical patients receiving advanced hemodynamic monitoring with the Swan-Ganz catheter.
The GHI algorithm is considered to provide additional information regarding the patient's predicted future risk for clinical deterioration, as well as identifying patients at low risk for deterioration. The product predictions are for reference only and no therapeutic decisions should be made based solely on the GHI algorithm predictions.
