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.

New Scent Delivery System for Research

Researchers can now easily add an olfactory element to expand general psychophysiology studies, enrich virtual and augmented environments, or examine how scent perception affects a variety of applications. BIOPAC’s new Scent Delivery System (SDS200-SYS), connects to an MP160 Research System with AcqKnowledge, and delivers up to eight scents to participants.

You Will Learn How To:
• Add olfactory stimulation to any experiment
• Optimize setup to get the best results
• Combine different types of stimulation
