After several years of research and development on its proprietary noninvasive HemoView™ technology, HEMONIX has demonstrated a prototype unit called the PeriVasc, that provides a non-invasive peripheral vascular profile.

The PeriVasc™ instrument measures the entire pressure profile of the patient including arterial pressures, microvascular pressures, and venous pressures down to and including Central Venous Pressure.

Furthermore, the PeriVasc™ is able to determine the blood volume profile of the patient and determine vessel compliance for all seven types of anatomic vessels.

The ability to measure venous and microvascular pressures, noninvasively, is unique and has the potential to offer dramatic improvement in diagnosis and management of hypertension, heart failure, and emergency patient care.

Initial testing in the clinical environment has demonstrated a very encouraging correlation between the PeriVasc™ CVP measurement and CVP readings taken by invasive catheters.

Hemonix is continuing to conduct clinical validation testing in the hospital critical care setting.
