The world's first in-situ ECMO simulator can now be controlled with your iOS Device. EigenFlow for iOS is the simplest way to simulate ECMO emergencies for you and your team. EigenFlow Advanced now features Automatic mode. AUTOMATIC MODE Run EigenFlow's predefined scenarios found in the back of the EigenFlow 2 User Manual autonomously. THROMBUS Generate variable flows and pressures with two variable controlled valves for inlet or outlet obstruction, thrombi, kinking, pump chatter, catheter malposition, and variable pre and post oxygenator pressures. AIR EMBOLUS Inject small (5cc), medium (25cc), or large (50cc) emboli of free air into an ECMO circuit. Train students to stop an air entrainment before it becomes fatal. HYPOVOLEMIA New in EigenFlow 2. Drain up to 850mL of fluid into EigenFlow for hypovolemia scenarios. BLOOD MONITORING Display simulated vital blood parameters PaO2, PaCO2, SaO2, SvO2, Hb, Hct, Arterial Temperature, Venous Temperature, Blood Flow Rate, ACT, TEG, aPTT, pH, P1, P2, Anti-Xa, FiO2, Lactate, Sweep Gas, ABP, PAP, CVP, and PWP (Wedge Pressure)

About

MCSAID

Features
Read full description

MCSAID is an educational application dedicated to the topic of mechanical cardiocirculatory support for patients with cardiogenic shock. A basic section introduces the definitions and classifications of cardiogenic shock as well as some of the common devices used for hemodynamic support in unstable patients. There is an algorithm for helping understand the decision process depending on key clinical variables such as cardiac output and PAPI. There are also several weaning and escalation algorithm. A calculator section is available for some common hemodynamic variables used in MCS decision-making and is available for quick-reference throughout the algorithm. MCSAID is an educational application for medical professionals and is not intended for making medical diagnoses. Medical decisions must be made by licensed professionals with the entire context of a patient’s medical history. If you are seeking a medical diagnosis, contact your physician and if you are experiencing a medical emergency, call your local emergency medical services.
