Intended Use

The Sono TT Ultrasonic Flowcomputer in combination with an ultrasonic clamp-on Transducer is indicated for the contact less volumetric measurement of liquid flowing through tubing systems. The measurement principle is the ultrasound transit-time method. The medical use of the device is appropriate in the following extracorporeal procedures: - Cardio-pulmonary bypass, membrane-oxygenation, hemodialysis, hemofiltration, plasmapheresis - Perfusion, infusion, transfusion - Several shunt-applications The Flowcomputer can be used in intensive care units and operating rooms. For the patient's safety the device is to be operated only by qualified medically-trained personnel.

Device Story

Sono TT Ultrasonic Flowcomputer uses clamp-on ultrasonic transducers to measure volumetric liquid flow in extracorporeal tubing. Operates via ultrasound transit-time method; processes acoustic signals to calculate flow rates. Used in ICU and OR settings by qualified medical personnel. Output provides real-time flow monitoring for equipment like oxygenators or blood pumps. Device serves as a monitoring tool; values require confirmation by other approved medical procedures before influencing clinical decisions. Benefits include non-invasive flow monitoring during critical extracorporeal procedures.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Ultrasonic clamp-on transducer; transit-time measurement principle; volumetric flow computation; intended for extracorporeal tubing systems.

Indications for Use

Indicated for contactless volumetric measurement of liquid flow in tubing systems during extracorporeal procedures including cardio-pulmonary bypass, membrane-oxygenation, hemodialysis, hemofiltration, plasmapheresis, perfusion, infusion, transfusion, and shunt-applications. For use in ICU and OR by qualified medical personnel. Contraindicated for use as the sole basis for patient status evaluation or medical decision-making without confirmation by other approved procedures.

Regulatory Classification

Identification
