Product Overview
The marriage of two trusted technologies
The COUPLER and a 20 MHz ultrasonic Doppler.
The FLOW COUPLER DEVICE has been specifically designed for use in end-to-end anastomosis for the detection of blood flow in order to confirm vessel patency intra- and postoperatively at the anastomotic site.
• Early Intervention
• Monitoring of the outflow vein of the flap will detect cessation of venous flow almost immediately.
• Interruption of arterial flow will cause a near-immediate loss of the venous Doppler signal
• Auditory Feedback
• Loss of an audible signal alerts staff that a potential problem with perfusion exists
• Safety and Efficiency
• Reduce needless re-explorations
