When additional blood flow data is needed during an extracorporeal procedure, the SonoTT™ aQuila provides a flexible, stand-alone method for measuring it.

The system combines a monitor with up to two SonoTT™ Clamp-On flow sensors, allowing blood flow to be measured and analyzed simultaneously at additional points within the extracorporeal circuit. This provides greater visibility into flow at locations such as distal leg perfusion, that the host device does feature. Other applications include apheresis, hemodialysis, ECMO with more than two access cannulas and heart-lung machine procedures.

SonoTT™ aQuila

The SonoTT™ aQuila is a stand-alone MDR Class I medical device designed to provide additional blood flow measurement during extracorporeal procedures. Compatible SonoTT™ Clamp-On flow sensors attach around the outside of the tubing, providing non-invasive measurement without direct contact with the fluid.
