The Mikro-Tip® sensor measures blood pressure, airway pressure, or compartment pressure at the source, providing a true representation of the pressure data and eliminating many of the common shortfalls of fluid-filled catheters, including signal variances from the patient position or timing delays. There is minimal noise and no air bubbles or motion artifacts to interfere with the signal.
Pressure Sensors for Catheters When small is not small enough, look to NovaSensor’s line of MEMS pressure sensor die for the perfect fit in your medical catheter application. With products ranging in size, pressure range, and ease of integration, we have the sensor solution you are looking for.
The IntraSense is an extremely small in-vivo pressure sensor for integration in catheters with only 1 French diameter. A highly flexible, fully protected cable is already connected to the sensor with dimensions of only 750 μm × 220 μm × 75 μm in order to make the use by the customer as easy as possible. The absolute pressure sensor provides accurate and stable values in the range of -300 ...
Using data from the temperature sensor in the tip of the catheter and the known starting temperature of the solution can determine the CO. However, due to the nature of these methods the CO result is intermittent. Other methods use the systolic portion of the arterial pressure and aortic impedance that offers a continuous display of CO. Whichever method is used, one driver remains constant ...
Pressure Diaphragm for Your Medical Applications. Every pressure measurement in the body is based on the diaphragm (or membrane), for short or long-term intravascular, intracardiac or neurovascular blood pressure measurements. Its minimum size and material consistency mainly determine the actual benefit and application possibilities, as diagnostic implants or catheters in the ...
· MEMS pressure sensors have a long history in medical applications, and have been used in non-invasive medical equipment, such as respiratory gear and blood pressure cuffs, since the 1980s. More recently, MEMS pressure sensors have been used for invasive applications as well, including as catheter tip sensors, or as an implant reporting on blood pressure (systolic and …

Industrial applications. Submersible pressure sensors can be used to measure liquid pressures (up to 30 PSI) with either a voltage or current (4-20mA) output in liquid tanks. By positioning these sensors at the bottom of a tank, you can get an accurate reading of the contents in order to alert workers or the process control system when levels in the tank fall below safe limits. Learn more ...
The sky is probably the limit when it comes to what applications pressure transducers can be used give you an idea, you can purchase a barometric pressure transducer to measure atmospheric pressures, hydraulic pressure transducers to measure pressure in your line, compound pressure transducers to measure positive and negative pressures, submersible transducers for level or depth ...
· In this application, the pressure sensor monitors the pressure applied that inflates/deflates the balloon and needs to withstand more than 200psi. If too much pressure …

Patent Application Publications 2007/0100332, 2009/0093806 and 2009/0138007, whose disclosures are incorporated herein by reference, describe methods of sensing contact pressure between the distal tip of a catheter and tissue in a body cavity using a force sensor embedded in the catheter. The distal tip of the catheter is coupled to the distal end of the catheter insertion tube by a ...
Users looking for the smallest possible MEMS pressure sensor die for their medical catheter application can opt for NovaSensor’s range for the perfect fit. With products ranging in size, pressure range, and ease of integration, NovaSensor is sure to have the sensor solution you are looking for.
Pressure Catheter (5F, Dual, Straight, 5cm, 120cm, PU/WD) SPR-956S. PRICE ON REQUEST. The SPR-956S is a Polyurethane - Woven Dacron pressure catheter designed for measuring LV, RV and systemic blood pressures in cow, horse and other large animals. It has two pressure sensors (5F), with 5 cm spacing between the sensors.
Medical companies that design and manufacture IAB catheters need to test the pressure sensor, which is a key element of the catheter and in turn the entire IABP system. The pressure sensor usually needs to be tested as part of the complete assembly or tray, which is typically the package used to transit the IABP to the medical facility. In order to perform this test, the entire tray assembly ...
Miniaturised sensors can provide this information about location, diagnostics and the treatment. This application severely limits the size of the device, with some catheters being less than 1 mm in...
