CareTaker MRI available from BIOPAC
NIBP-A-MRI data
Part #: NIBP-A-MRI

The NIBP-A-MRI CareTaker4 system measures relative central arterial pressure to provide continuous, noninvasive “Beat-by-Beat” Blood Pressure from at rest humans (≥ 15 kg) in the MRI; measures include Diastolic, Systolic, Mean Arterial Pressure.; heart rate (HR) data is available. The system uses the scientific method of Pulse Decomposition Analysis (“PDA”).

Key features

  • Continuous, noninvasive monitoring of “Beat-by-Beat” Blood Pressure (Diastolic, Systolic, Mean Arterial Pressure) and Heart Rate
  • Wireless transmission of blood pressure data from CareTaker blood pressure processing unit (via Bluetooth) to a PC—tablet included
  • Measurements captured using a single disposable finger cuff inflated to low pressure—can be worn for extended periods with no discomfort or loss of circulation in the finger
  • Designed for use with MRI recordings
    • easily export to AcqKnowledge research software for post-acquisition analysis
  • Compact device with on-board display
  • Automatic and manual calibration modes
  • Integrated PDF report generation and alarms

MRI Use: MR Conditional – Unit remains in control room and tubing passes through the waveguide to subject.
