The ADVantage Pressure-Volume System represents a significant technical advancement in the field of animal cardiac function research. It is the only catheter-based system to accurately quantify true ventricular volume in real time using admittance technology. Automatic calibration of the volume signal eliminates hypertonic saline injection and cuvette calibrations for a tighter data confidence interval. The ADVantage system Phase signal provides real time feedback about Catheter position to ensure quality measurements from every procedure.

• Excellent measurement accuracy

• Absolute volume in real-time with admittance technology

• Automatic calibration of the volume signal eliminates hypertonic saline injection and cuvette calibrations for a tighter data confidence interval

• Phase signal provides real time feedback about Catheter position
