ARANX ROBOTICA CORP · Model MO-US-8001
The MotiliCap Data Recorder is used with the MotiliCap GI Monitoring System to receive and store transmitted data from the MotiliCap capsule during the time in the GI tract. The data is then downloaded from the recorder to a computer to be analyzed by the MotiliScan software for physician analysis.
Intended use: An assembly of devices designed to continuously measure and transmit signals for one or more gastrointestinal parameters (i.e., pH, pressure, temperature) or events (e.g., gastrointestinal bleeding) from a patient to a receiving location for viewing. It consists of a battery-powered capsule swallowed by the patient, and a patient-worn or clinician-held unit designed to wirelessly receive data from the capsule to either transmit it (i.e., a transceiver) to a computing device or to display it (e.g., a receiver); various solutions/containers may also be included. It is intended to help diagnose gastric pH disorders and/or measure gastrointestinal transit times to evaluate motility disorders.
