EU approves cardiac monitor with pulse co-oximetry technology

Bmeye, maker of combined noninvasive blood pressure and cardiac output monitoring, and Masimo, inventor of pulse co-oximetry, have jointly received CE Mark certification and launched the Bmeye ccNexfin—a noninvasive cardiovascular monitor with pulse co-oximetry technology—in Europe.

The combination of two noninvasive technologies—Amsterdam-based Bmeye for cardiovascular monitoring and the Irvine, Calif.-based Masimo for its Rainbow SET hemoglobin and oxygen saturation monitoring—provides beat-to-beat measurements of cardiac, circulatory and pulmonary parameters, according to the companies.

The combined technology utilizes a single sensor finger cuff (Bmeye) and finger sensor (Masimo) to capture and measure beat-to-beat blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, cardiac output, stroke volume, systemic vascular resistance, derivative of pressure, noninvasive hemoglobin, oxygen saturation and perfusion index.
