Indications for Use
The Starling with NIBP and SpO2 functionalities is a portable, hemodynamic monitoring non-
invasive Cardiac Output monitoring device that monitors and displays a patient's Cardiac Output
(CO) in Ltr/Min with a Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) function that non-invasively measures
and displays blood pressure (diastolic, systolic and mean arterial pressure) and heart rate and
with a SpO2 function that non-invasively measures and displays blood oxygen saturation (SpO2).
The device displays associated hemodynamic parameters based on measurements or
calculations of measurements already incorporated into the Starling. These parameters are:
Cardiac Index (CI),
Stroke Volume (SV),
Stroke Volume Index (SVI),
Stroke Volume Variation (SVV),
Heart Rate (HR),
Ventricular Ejection Time (VET),
Total Peripheral Resistance (TPR),
Total Peripheral Resistance Index (TPRI),
Cardiac Power (CP),
Cardiac Power Index (CPI),
Blood Oxygenation (SPO2),
Oxygen Delivery Index (DO2I),
Electrical impedance of the chest cavity (Z0),
Thoracic Fluid Content (TFC),
Thoracic Fluid Content change from preset time period (TFCd),
Thoracic Fluid Content from baseline (TFCd0),
Changes in SV, CO and other hemodynamic parameters which are derived by Bioreactance.
