T-Stat® is the first medical device to be labeled

by the FDA as "sensitive to ischemia"

 

T-Stat is the first device to be labeled by the FDA as “sensitive to Ischemia” and has been proven in multiple trials as an easy-to-use and reliable tool for assessing the adequacy of oxygen delivery to tissue. 

 

The T-Stat 303 provides a continuous, non-invasive and localized measurement, sensitive to regional and global ischemia. T-Stat reports a capillary-weighted oxygen saturation which is closely related to a local venous saturation measure (see "Contribution Of Capillary Venous And Arterial Blood for T-Stat˜).

 

T-Stat® system overview


The complete Spectros monitoring systems consists
of the T-Stat 303 monitor and any of 5 single use probes designed for specific applications and measurement sites.

In addition to these standard probe configurations, custom probes are available for research applications.

Each probe contains a visible white light source for illuminating the tissue and a fiber optic bundle that transmits directly back to the monitor for real-time results.

5mm catheter
surface probe

Buccal probe
The buccal probe (available in two sizes for neonatal and adult applications), is designed to fit in the mouth to monitor the saturation of the buccal mucosa as a surrogate for GI perfusion.

Endoscopic catheter
The 1.5mm (Endoscopic) catheter is designed to be used in the (5 Fr) instrument channel of an endoscope for assessing local perfusion in the large and small bowel.


5mm catheter
The 5mm catheter is designed to be placed in the esophagus or rectum for continuous GI saturation monitoring. This probe can also be used through a trocar for spot organ measurements during laproscopic surgery.


Surface probe
The Surface probe is a side-looking probe designed for skin monitoring applications.
