CWE Blood Pressure Monitor BP-100
BP-100 Blood Pressure Monitor
The BP-100 Blood Pressure Monitor is an accurate, easy-to-use instrument for measuring direct blood pressure (BP) from small animals. It is designe to operate using standard, widely available clinical-type BP transducers (included with unit). In addition, miniature catheter-tip transducers are available for high-resolution intra-arterial BP measurements. The standard systolic, diastolic and mean pressures are reported, along with heart rate (HR).
The BP-100 features automated operation, including push-button transducer zeroing. High and low-pressure alarms are user-adjustable. A serial data output is provided for remote data collection. Analog voltage outputs for fast (continuous signal), systolic, diastolic, and HR are compatible with data acquisition systems. All computed measurements are updated every 2.5 seconds. A special fast mode can be selected, where the display is rapidly updated. This mode allows the BP-100 to be used as a general-purpose transducer amplifier for recording signals other than arterial BP.
