Sutter Health to deploy Flosonics Medical’s Doppler ultrasound device
The FloPatch hands-free device can measure blood flow and heart function in relation to IV fluid volume.
US-based integrated healthcare system Sutter Health is set to implement Flosonics Medical’s wireless, wearable Doppler ultrasound device, FloPatch, to enhance the safety of intensive care unit (ICU) patients. The technology offers a fast, hands-free method for clinicians to assess blood flow, aiding in the management of cardiopulmonary resuscitation and fluid administration in critically ill patients. The FloPatch device has been cleared by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use and will be deployed by Sutter Health across its ICU facilities.
