Acumen intelligent decision support suite

Manage pressure and flow with predictive technology

doctor monitor

The Critical Care product group is now part of BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company). Edwards Lifesciences is the manufacturer of the products.

Harnessing the power of machine learning, Acumen suite offers both predictive decision support and retrospective data analysis. With access to advanced hemodynamic monitoring that provides continuous pressure and flow parameters, you will get valuable insight into the adequacy of perfusion.

Acumen suite of software and sensors enable you to:

hypotension icon

Predict the likelihood of hypotension with Acumen Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) software

fluid icon

Optimize fluid administration with Acumen Assisted Fluid Management (AFM) software

hemosphere icon

Proactively manage hemodynamic instability using machine learning algorithms

Acumen HPI software

relationship view screen

Acumen HPI software is effective in detecting hemodynamic instability and substantially reducing the duration of intraoperative hypotension.

A recent study demonstrated a 57% reduction in the duration of intraoperative hypotension.*1

Sensors and platform

Acumen IQ cuff (noninvasive)

Acumen IQ cuff

Acumen IQ cuff unlocks Acumen HPI software* while delivering continuous blood pressure monitoring and advanced hemodynamic parameters noninvasively.

*Acumen HPI parameter is indicated for surgical patients only when using an Acumen IQ cuff

Acumen IQ sensor (minimally-invasive)

Acumen IQ sensor

Acumen IQ sensor unlocks Acumen HPI and Acumen AFM software. The sensor connects to any existing radial arterial line and offers you continuous insights into your patients’ hemodynamic status.

hemosphere monitor

HemoSphere monitor

HemoSphere monitor helps you detect and respond to hemodynamic instability, support individualized patient management and make proactive decisions that keep you ahead of critical moments. See advanced pressure, flow and tissue oximetry insights – from a single, comprehensive monitor.

Managing pressure and flow is key to hemodynamic stability

tissue perfusion

Maintaining adequate perfusion

Adequate perfusion requires adequate arterial pressure and cardiac output. Advanced hemodynamic monitoring can provide access to continuous pressure and flow parameters, giving you valuable insight into the adequacy of patient perfusion.

Intraoperative hypotension is common and may elevate risk – but it can be reduced1-4

  • A recent study reported at least one hypotensive event* in 88% of noncardiac cases4
  • Risks of end-organ injury increase with prolonged exposure to MAP 65-60 mmHg or for any exposure <55-50 mmHg3
  • Acumen HPI software demonstrated a 57% reduction in duration of intraoperative hypotension from 28 to 12 minutes1**

*A hypotensive event is defined as MAP <65 mmHg for at least 1 minute.

**Prospective, single-arm, multicenter study in noncardiac surgical patients requiring arterial line monitoring compared to a historical control
