Philips SvO2 module provides continuous measurement of mixed venous oxygen saturation and central venous oxygen saturation* for adult and pediatric patients. The optical module uses a fiber optic catheter inserted in the pulmonary artery to detect venous oxygen saturation levels.
Designed for use in critical care and surgical settings, SvO2 technology is especially applicable for patients with hemodynamic instability, septic shock, high-risk cardiovascular conditions, severe burns, acute hypoxic respiratory failure, multi-system organ dysfunction, and other critical conditions.
The SvO2 module detects clinically significant SvO2 changes, which can be an early indicator of physiologic instability, thus allowing appropriate intervention. The SvO2 module provides an index of the oxygen balance, enabling you to compare oxygen delivery (DO2) and consumption (VO2). When SvO2 is used with SpO2 on the patient monitor, the numerics and graphical trends for both measurements can be configured for side-by-side display for easy comparison and analysis.
Specific features include:
- SvO2 numeric reported as a percentage
- Difference in arterial and venous oxygen saturation (SpO2-SvO2) reported as a percentage
- Light intensity bar to evaluate catheter position
- SpO2 and SvO2 trended data
- SpO2-SvO2 trended data, providing an estimation of the oxygen extraction ratio
