Five New Clinical Studies Show Value of Masimo PVI & PI

Data to be presented at American Society of Anesthesiologists Annual

Meeting as Masimo showcases world's first-and-only noninvasive and continuous hemoglobin (SpHb) and Oxygen Content (SpOC) monitor with live

booth demonstrations

IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Masimo, the inventor of Pulse CO-Oximetry(TM) and Measure-Through-Motion-and-Low-Perfusion pulse oximetry, announced today that five new independent and objective studies demonstrating Masimo PVI to be highly predictive of patient fluid status will be presented at the American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) Annual Meeting in Orlando, Fla., October 19-21, 2008.

Fluid administration is critical to optimizing patient status and enabling end organ preservation, but traditional methods to guide fluid administration are invasive and often fail to predict fluid responsiveness. PVI has been shown to predict fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients under general anesthesia during surgery, and may help clinicians optimize fluid administration and improve patient outcomes.(2-4)

Also at ASA for the first time, Masimo will be showcasing live demonstrations of the first-ever noninvasive and continuous hemoglobin (SpHb) and Oxygen Content (SpOC) monitor. SpHb provides instantaneous hemoglobin measurements that may facilitate faster, easier, safer, and better clinical decisions by allowing clinicians to more quickly detect chronic or acute anemia, identify occult bleeding earlier, and more effectively manage blood transfusions. While oxygen saturation (SpO2) and hemoglobin are considered critical parameters for patient management, neither parameter by itself can indicate the actual amount of oxygen in the blood. However, now with Masimo Rainbow SET Pulse CO-Oximetry, SpHb and SpO2 can be used together to provide clinicians with the first-and-only technology for real-time and noninvasive oxygen content (SpOC(TM)) monitoring,
