NICU point-of-care testing solution
Get support in making well-informed treament decisions with our NICU solution
Careful monitoring of the neonate
Neonates born premature may present a range of critical conditions that caregivers need to diagnose, treat and monitor. The care that neonates receive in the first hours and days can have a significant impact on their quality of life. [1,2]
In the short term, the recognition and treatment of critical symptoms can save the neonate’s life. [3]
In the long term, when caregivers provide correct and timely treatment and avoid life-altering complications, this helps contribute to better quality of life. [3]
The rapidly changing conditions of the neonate and undetected oxygen changes can be challenging in the neonatal intensive care
unit (NICU). The NICU solution supports you in making diagnostic decisions and in caring for neonates.
Our NICU solution supports you in critical decision-making
The possibility to change the course of a preterm neonate's life starts here. By providing you with insight into the neonate's condition, we aim to support you in making well-informed treatment decisions.
The dedicated NICU solution includes:
- blood gas testing on a very small blood sample
- continuous non-invasive transcutaneous monitoring of oxygen and carbon dioxide levels
The combination of advanced technologies and an extensive panel of tests gives you access to accurate and real-time information about the neonate’s condition.
Leading the way in caring for fragile patients
The beginnings of Radiometer were rooted in caring for fragile patients. The polio epidemic that swept Europe in 1954 was a crucial turning point in the formation of the company today. Dr. Poul Astrup approached us to support him in developing special equipment to help diagnose children with polio. [1, 2]
Radiometer continues to lead the way in the development of advanced medical devices for fragile patients with the NICU solution.
The combined blood gas and transcutaneous monitoring solution gives you detailed information on the neonate’s respiratory and metabolic status.
