RespirAct^®

Breathing New Life Into Patient Vascular Health

RespirAct^® is a computer-controlled gas blender used to provide accurate, repeatable, non-invasive control of blood gases to stimulate vascular reactivity. It monitors blood flow responses in conjunction with diagnostic imaging techniques to show areas of hemodynamic compromise.

RespirAct^® has been cited in over 150 articles published in peer reviewed journals.

RespirAct^® is used in research being conducted at over 65 of the world’s leading research institutes, adding to the body of knowledge that will change patient care.

Generates Consistent and Standardized Stimulus

RespirAct^® is a computer-controlled gas blender to implement precise control of PCO₂ and PO₂ for a consistent and repeatable stimulus.

Compatible with an MRI Environment

MRI Conditional – A portion of the system remains in the control room and communicates with a unit which is placed next to the MRI bed. RespirAct^® can also be used with Transcranial Doppler (TCD) and other imaging modalities.

Simple and Intuitive User Interface

RespirAct^® is controlled through a user-friendly graphical interface requiring minimum training.

Safety

RespirAct^® is designed with fail safes and there is no potential of inadvertent hypoxic gas administration.
