Transcutaneous CO2 Means Better Data for Clinicians and Better Sleep for Patients

Better Rest at Home

Home initiation of chronic NIV has been shown to be non-inferior, safe, and more cost-effective than the hospital setting.

SpO2 is Only Part of the Picture

Abnormal CO2 values can be more common than abnormal SpO2 values in patients with sleep-disordered breathing.

Accuracy Regardless of Ventilation Strategy

tcPCO2 is not dependent on ventilation method, delivering accurate values for CPAP or NIV.

Efficient Treatment

Transcutaneous CO2 monitoring can facilitate more timely diagnoses and treatment of nocturnal hypoventilation.

TCM IN HOME VENTILATION

The Benefits of Continuous Noninvasive CO2 Monitoring during Home Ventilation

Continuously monitoring CO2 levels is important to assess nocturnal hypoventilation and the efficiency of alveolar ventilation. Transcutaneous monitoring is continuous, noninvasive, and can be done in the comfort of a patient’s home.

Benefits for Patients

Low temperatures and customized adhesion options protect skin integrity and enhance comfort.

Site times up to 12 hours allow patients to get a full night’s sleep without adjustment or interruption.

The monitor screen can be dimmed or completely darkened to ensure optimal sleeping conditions.

Benefits for Caregivers

Compact monitor design, long sensor cables, and 30 minutes of disconnection time allow for intuitive setup and use in the home environment.

Straightforward sensor attachment and simple workflows make the device easy to use and maintain.

Sentec’s suite of product support offerings enable immediate access to tutorials, videos, and contact information to help you get your questions answered quickly.

Benefits for Providers
Continuous, noninvasive CO2 values tightly correlated to PaCO2 regardless of ventilation strategy or V/Q mismatch.

Nocturnal transcutaneous CO2 monitoring assists with initiation of home mechanical ventilation, which is not only safe and effective, but cost-saving.

Source

Accurate titration, baselines, and monitoring enable more robust clinical decision-making.

THE IMPULSATOR

The same technology that saves lives in critical care hospitals can now improve the lives of patients who require Lung Recruitment therapy at home. Proven safe and effective, our home care solutions deliver the same TRUE-IPV® benefits to patients as those devices used in the hospital setting.

When TRUE-IPV® therapy is prescribed for home care patients, the Impulsator® home care devices by Percussionaire® are proven tools for invasive or non-invasive airway clearance and lung recruitment.
Introduced in 1985, The Impulsator® offered an effective means of therapeutic secretion clearance for home care patients and continues to be the leading Pulmonary Therapy System used around the world today. The Impulsator device allows patients of all ages with COPD, ALS, SMA, Bronchitis, Asthma, Bronchiectasis, Cystic Fibrosis, or Pulmonary Emphysema to continue daily TRUE-IPV® therapy as part of their ongoing condition management in the comfort of their own homes.

THE IMPULSATOR

Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation for home use. The same technology that saves lives in critical care hospitals can now improve the lives of patients who require lung recruitment therapy at home. Proven safe and effective, our home care solutions deliver the same IPV benefits to patients as those devices used in the hospital setting.

When intrapulmonary percussive ventilation (IPV) therapy is prescribed for home care patients, the Impulsator home care devices by Sentec are proven tools for invasive or non-invasive airway clearance and lung recruitment.

Sentec IPV Therapy is an efficient, safe, and well-tolerated therapy across diverse patient populations, care settings, and delivery interfaces due to a unique mechanism of action that comprehensively improves gas exchange capacity.

Gas exchange impairment in these patients is caused by three interconnected factors: secretion retention, atelectasis, and hyperinflation/air trapping. Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation Therapy helps relieve all three causes of gas exchange impairment through airflow characteristics provided by proprietary technology.
