Their products are used principally in the treatment of high-risk patients in both critical care units and in the operating theatre. They monitor the amount of blood flowing around the body helping clinicians and nurses to ensure that vital organs are kept adequately perfused with oxygenated blood by the adjustment of supportive fluid and drugs.
Clinical studies show that the optimisation of the hemodynamic status of high-risk patients produces better outcomes. LiDCO’s computer-based technology is proven to significantly reduce mortality, complications, length of stay and the overall costs associated with major surgery. LiDCO now brings you a new multi parameter monitoring solution for fluid and drug management of high-risk surgery patients.
LiDCO company has been producing the LiDCO monitors for 13 years. LiDCO’s monitors are developed at St Thomas’ Hospital in London, UK and are sold in 30 countries all around the world.
