TriOx^™-PAC

Measures both Mixed Venous Oximetry (SvO2) and Continuous Cardiac Output (CCO).

• Catheter utilizes thermal coil technology to provide continuous cardiac output eliminating the need for bolus cardiac output injections. This may reduce the risk of fluid overload and potentially decrease the risk for contamination.
• The only SvO2 catheter that incorporates 3-wavelength technology which has been clinically proven to respond more accurately to changes in oxygenation levels than a 2-wavelength catheter.
• Proper thermal coil placement can be confirmed without X-rays due to the 
  TriOx Catheter’s Distal Thermal Positioning Port (DTPP). This allows for as-needed confirmation of the correct coil position without costly, time consuming X-rays.
• The 15cm long thermal coil is smooth and flush with the catheter body, allowing the system to leverage its optimum detectable signal at the lowest possible power level per length of coil, keeping warming at a safe, gentle level.
• ICU Medical's full line of pulmonary artery catheters are offered with no natural rubber latex components in order to reduce the risk of patient latex allergy or hypersensitivity, without compromising performance.
  • Studies have shown that 6-12% of the United States population may have a latex sensitivity.
• All catheter configurations are also offered with heparin or non-heparin options.

TriOx Catheters

State of the Art 3-Wavelength Oximetry Technology

Accurate
The only SvO2 catheter that incorporates 3-wavelength technology which has been clinically proven to respond more accurately to changes in oxygenation levels than a 2-wavelength catheter.

Sensitive
Filters artifact caused by cell orientation, vessel wall reflections, and changes in pH.

Convenient
Avoid daily in vivo SvO2 calibrations based on hemoglobin changes which are necessary with 2-wavelenth technologies.
