Doppler Ultrasonic Blood Flow Monitor allows non-invasive blood
pressure monitoring. Hypertension (high blood pressure) is often
over looked during diagnosis, treatment, and routine physical exams
in small animals. In addition, many hypotensive (low blood pressure)
patients, such as those suffering from shock, benefit greatly from
Doppler measurement of blood pressure when knowing the pressure can
mean effective and timely treatment. Combining Doppler with an
appropriate size "cuff" for small animals, provides the veterinarian
with the same, non-invasive method for testing blood pressure as is
available in human medicine. Limited one year warranty. Cuffs are
excepted. A small prove is placed over a peripheral artery (e.g.,
distal or coccygeal). An ultrasonic crystal in the probe transmits
pulse wave sounds back to the amplifier. The pressure cuff is then
placed proximal to the probe. The cuff is inflated until the pulse
sounds are no longer audible. The cuff is slowly deflated, using the
manometer, until pulse sounds are audible once more, at which point
the manometer displays a numeric value of the animal's systolic
pressure. Features: Lightweight, hand-held unit. High quality
veterinary specific sphygmomanometer. Comes with two cuffs (2.5cm
and 5.0 cm). Runs on 9 volt battery (included). Headset included.
