Tissue Vitality – Perfusion Flow

A worldwide audience

Our latest OxyFlo™ laser Doppler flowmetry tissue perfusion monitors are employed the world over for the continuous assessment of tissue blood flow in ischaemia-related research focussed on acute experimental models of peripheral vascular disorders, stroke and cerebral ischaemia, angiogenesis, vital organ vitality, transplantation, and more.

Versatility

A range of probe types supports a host of specialist disciplines and applications requiring both invasive or non-invasive tissue blood flow assessment.

Motion artifact rejection

Our multi-channel OxyFlo™ Pro monitors incorporate a proprietary artefact rejection technology, effectively filtering out the presence of motion artefacts in the blood flow signal. It substantially reduces, and in most cases eliminates motion artefacts or ‘spikes’ in the blood flow data arising from sensor cable movement and/or regular tissue movement (e.g. generated by breathing motion).

Performance and ease-of-use

Our third-generation laser Doppler flowmetry opto-electronics ensure industry-leading sensitivity, stability, and accuracy, while one-time probe calibration and automatic probe identification mostly eliminate calibration procedures. Probes supplied at the time of monitor shipment are supplied fully factor pre-calibrated.

Multi-channel productivity

The OxyFlo™ Pro is available as a 2-channel or as a 4-channel device for the simultaneous measurement from up to 4 probes. This provides the flexibility to monitor blood flow from multiple tissue regions (e.g. in the comparison of pathological versus control tissue). Furthermore the Pro models feature a touch-sensitive, high-contrast, high viewing-angle display, providing real-time data in both digital and graphical (trace) formats, and access to additional instrument settings.

OxyLite™ ready

OxyFlo™ monitors are configured for use in a stack arrangement alongside our OxyLite™ dissolved oxygen monitors, supporting the simultaneous measurement of tissue oxygen and blood flow using unique multi-parameter sensors
 

Single or multi-channel monitors can be arranged into stacks for multi-parameter monitoring

Data logging and acquisition

Our blood flow monitors offer a choice of analogue data outputs (compatible with most third-party acquisition platforms), or two digital (serial) data outputs.

The USB serial interface supports direct streaming to the popular and powerful LabChart® Procharting software by ADInstruments. LabChart will automatically identify the OxyFlo monitor connected and launch with pre-configured settings, for full ‘plug and play’ convenience.

LabChart Pro software

For those merely seeking to record trace data to a PC without the powerful analysis features offered by LabChart® Pro, our oxygen monitors feature a further serial interface, compatible with our in-house OxyData™ software platform.

2-year product warranty

Our monitors are provided with a comprehensive 2-year manufacturer’s warranty, covering defects in material or in workmanship. Optional extended warranty packages including preventative maintenance servicing are also available for additional peace of mind.
