OxyAlert™ NIRSensors Cerebral/Somatic sensors for infants and neonates are used with the INVOS™ 5100C system to provide noninvasive and continuous information of changes in regional oxygen saturation of blood in up to four site-specific areas chosen by the care team.
OxyAlert™ NIRSensors are applied to the skin’s surface, and are user and patient friendly, making monitoring of ischemic threats to the brain and body safe and easy. By reporting venous weighted regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation (rSO2) in tissue directly beneath the sensor, this reflects oxygen remaining after tissue demand has been met.
