美Medwave公司开发出手镯式生命体征监测系统

 
一种高度精确的非创伤性持续血压检测系统，能够从戴在腕部的手镯样设备读出重要生命体征。

这种Fusion生命体征监测器，是一种完全的基于探测器的血压检测器，是根据拥有所有权的感应器血压检测技术而开发的，具有其他可选择的生命体征监测感应器。核心技术已经经过了许多独立临床验证试验，结果发现精确性大大优于侵入性动脉导管。该监测器海能够整合感应器脉搏血氧定量仪和温度仪，从而建立了一种完整的、非创伤性生命体征检测方案。该系统已经获得了美国食品药品管理局的批准。

该Fusion系统是由Medwave公司(Danvers, MA, USA)研制开发的。备选感应器脉搏血氧定量仪模块是由Nellcor公司(Pleasanton, CA, USA)制造的，温度仪模块是由Kendall公司(Mansfield, MA, USA)制造的，这两家公司都是Tyco医疗保健集团(Mansfield, MA, USA)的合作伙伴。
 
Reading Vital Signs From the Wrist
 
A highly accurate noninvasive continuous blood pressure monitoring system reads vital signs from a bracelet-like device on the wrist.

The Fusion vital signs monitor is a completely sensor-based blood pressure monitor based on proprietary sensor-based blood pressure technology, with other optional vital signs monitoring sensors. The core technology has been the subject of numerous independent clinical validation studies, and results have shown that accuracy is comparable to an invasive arterial catheter. The monitor can also incorporate sensor-based pulse oxymetry and thermometry, creating a complete, non-invasive, vital signs solution. The system has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Adminstration (FDA).

The Fusion system was developed by Medwave (Danvers, MA, USA). The optional, sensor-based pulse oxymetry module is manufactured by Nellcor (Pleasanton, CA, USA)) and the thermometry module is made by Kendall (Mansfield, MA, USA), both operating companies of Tyco Healthcare Group (Mansfield, MA, USA).
