SMSYNOVIS MICRO COMPANIES ALLIANCE, INC · Model GEM1020M
The FLOW COUPLER Monitor is a pulsed Doppler ultrasound system designed for the detection of blood flow in vessels.
Intended use: A mains electricity (AC-powered) external device, which may include internal rechargeable batteries, intended to be used to indicate (visually and/or sonically) blood flow in a peripheral blood vessel, through connection to a dedicated probe/catheter (not included), using ultrasound/Doppler/transit time technology. It may be intended to locate and assess the extent of vascular flow restriction (e.g., clots, stenosis, mechanical damage) or to monitor blood flow in association with microvascular surgery.
