New innovative technology

Our technologies have been specifically designed to bridge the gap between continuous invasive and intermittent noninvasive measurement of cardiovascular parameters like blood pressure, cardiac output and many more. Its innovative approach and usability allow the substitution of the current intermittent blood pressure monitoring with continuous, noninvasive blood pressure measurement in settings where close and timely blood pressure monitoring is required. It provides the clinician with information to diagnose and correct short-term but potentially detrimental episodes without delay.

The CNAP^® (Continuous Noninvasive Arterial Pressure) technology overcomes many of the well-known drawbacks of existing continuous, noninvasive blood pressure measurement devices and introduces features and benefits enabling the use of the technology in standard patient monitoring.

The CNCO^® (Continuous Noninvasive Cardiac Output) technology is a further development of impedance cardiography with a new mathematical and electronic approach.

Like in many other fields of innovation, the application of small but powerful microcomputers and digital signal processors facilitates the development of efficient instruments. These processors enable complex and computationally intensive mathematical functions in small inexpensive devices, which are necessary for this purpose.
