SS31L NONINVASIVE CARDIAC OUTPUT SENSOR 

 

The SS31L records the parameters associated with Cardiac Output 
measurements. The SS31L incorporates a precision high-frequency 
current source, which injects a very small (400µA rms) current 
through the measurement tissue volume defined by the placement of a 
set of current source electrodes. A separate set of monitoring 
electrodes then measures the voltage developed across the tissue 
volume. Because the current is constant, the voltage measured is 
proportional to the characteristics of the biological impedance of the 
tissue volume. 

 

Use the SS31L to measure changes in Cardiac Output under a variety of conditions: laying down, sitting 
up, standing up, and post-exercise. 

 

Use on stationary subjects; the SS31L is sensitive to motion artifact.
