Sensation Plus – Fiber optic IABP and catheter system

SENSATION PLUS® is a technological first in improved hemodynamic support, offering all the benefits of Maquet’s easy-to-use IAB fiber-optic technology with the increased clinical effectiveness that larger volume IABs offer. Faster set-up and easier patient management come standard.

Description

Unique automatic in vivo calibration 

Maquet offers a fiber-optic IABP and catheter system that automatically calibrates in the patient after insertion and automatically recalibrates in vivo every 2 hours or sooner should patient or environmental conditions change.

The result

  • Faster time to therapy
  • Ongoing consistency and accuracy of the arterial blood pressure waveform
  • Ιmproved ease-of-use.

Why are the NEW sizes better for my patient?
Larger volume balloons like SENSATION PLUS displace more blood in the aorta during diastole, resulting in improved augmentation and unloading.  With these new sizing guidelines, a larger patient population can benefit from greater hemodynamic support than ever before.
Thus, why not consider using a higher efficacy IAB as your FIRST choice when hemodynamic support  is needed?
