Issue 5 - January 2008
In the January issue of the StO2 Sensor newsletter, you will find an overview of how the InSpectra StO2 Monitoring System is successful in providing noninvasive, continuous perfusion status to critical care clinicians. Here is a quick preview of other items of interest in this month's edition:
For the fifth consecutive year, Hutchinson Technology sponsored a forum for the discussion of tissue perfusion monitoring at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST), held in Las Vegas, Nevada, September 2007.
The price paid for not recognizing hemorrhagic shock, not treating shock appropriately, or over-resuscitating trauma patients can be significant, both in terms of patient outcomes and associated costs.
In order to help customers better understand
InSpectra StO2 data in context with other measurements, Hutchinson Technology Inc. introduced the new
InSpectra StO2 Case Graphing Software that allows users to easily export
InSpectra StO2 data from the
InSpectra StO2 Monitor and create graphs of patient
InSpectra StO2 tracings.
Included in this edition of StO
2 Sensor is a list of meetings we’ll be attending in the first quarter of 2008. If you’re in the neighborhood, we hope you will stop by and let us give you a hands-on demonstration of the
