Swan-Ganz catheters- Indications for Use:

The Swan-Ganz catheters are diagnostic and monitoring tools used for hemodynamic monitoring of adult critically ill patients including but limited to post major surgical recovery, trauma, sepsis, burns, pulmonary disease, pulmonary failure, cardiac disease including heart failure.

Models 096F6, 096F6P, TS105F5, 132F5, 131F7, 131F75P, 831F75, 831F75P, 834F75, and 834F75P are intended for adult and pediatric patients:

The Swan-Ganz catheters are diagnostic and monitoring tools used for hemodynamic monitoring of critically ill adult and pediatric patients ≥12 years of age including but not limited to post major surgical recovery, trauma, sepsis, burns, pulmonary disease, pulmonary failure, cardiac disease including heart failure.

FloTrac sensors- Indications for Use:

The FloTrac sensor is indicated for use in intravascular pressure monitoring. It is also indicated for use with the Edwards arterial pressure based cardiac output monitoring devices or hardware to measure cardiac output. They are intended to be used in adult patients.

Models MHD6, MHD8, MHD65, and MHD85 are intended for adult and pediatric patients:

The FloTrac sensor is indicated for use in intravascular pressure monitoring. It is also indicated for use with the Edwards arterial pressure based cardiac output monitoring devices or hardware to measure cardiac output. The FloTrac sensor is indicated for use in adult and pediatric patients ≥12 years of age.

ClearSight finger cuffs- Indications for Use:

The Acumen IQ are indicated for patients over 18 years of age to non-invasively measure blood pressure and associated hemodynamic parameters when used with EV1000 clinical platform or HemoSphere advanced monitoring platform.

The ClearSight finger cuffs are indicated for adult and pediatric patients ≥12 years of age to noninvasively measure blood pressure and associated hemodynamic parameters when used with EV1000 clinical platform or HemoSphere advanced monitoring platform.

HemoSphere Advanced Monitor with HemoSphere Swan-Ganz Module- Indications for Use:

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 in a hospital environment. 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 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 for a complete list of measured and derived parameters available for each patient population.

HemoSphere Advanced Monitor with HemoSphere Pressure Cable- Indications for Use:

The HemoSphere advanced monitor when used with the HemoSphere pressure cable is indicated for use in adult and pediatric 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 of hemodynamic parameters in conjunction with a perioperative goal directed therapy protocol in a hospital environment. Refer to the Edwards FloTrac sensor, Acumen IQ sensor, and TruWave DPT indications for use statements for information on target patient populations specific to the sensor/transducer being used.

The Edwards 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 Acumen 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.

HemoSphere Advanced Monitor with HemoSphere ClearSight Module - Indications for Use:

The HemoSphere advanced monitor when used with the HemoSphere ClearSight module, pressure controller and a compatible Edwards finger cuff are indicated for adult and pediatric patients 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.

Refer to the ClearSight finger cuff and Acumen IQ finger cuff indications for use statements for information on target patient population specific to the finger cuff being used.

The Edwards Acumen Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) feature provides the clinician with physiological insight into 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 Acumen 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.
