NICCI Technology

Advanced Hemodynamic Monitoring at your fingertips

NICCI is the latest innovation in Advanced Hemodynamic Monitoring, providing continuous and noninvasive hemodynamic insights.

*The availability of NICCI depends on regional regulatory approval status

NICCI is the latest innovation in Advanced Hemodynamic Monitoring, providing continuous and noninvasive hemodynamic insights.
The NICCI Sensor contains two finger cuffs and performs an automatically alternating continuous measurement at the patient’s finger.
Compact design of NICCI and PulsioFlex provides small footprint and continuous noninvasive parameter during surgery.

Re-thinking Hemodynamic Monitoring

NICCI helps guiding individual treatment decisions by reliably providing dynamic parameters, such as mean arterial pressure (MAP), cardiac index (CI), stroke volume variation (SVV) and pulse pressure variation (PPV).

Hemodynamic insights

Based on the pulse contour analysis, NICCI analyses the pressure curve and derives parameters providing valuable information about the blood flow, preload, afterload as well as contractility.

Hypotension - an unknown risk

Hypotension – an unknown risk?

Studies show: intraoperative hypotension is a fact. Even short hypotensive episodes are associated with severe complications. [1],[2]

Learn more about hypotension:

  • Why is intraoperative hypotension so common?
  • What kind of risks does it bear?
  • Is there a way to reduce hypotensive phases?

Never miss a beat

Blood pressure is one of the most important variables evaluated during almost every medical examination. However, recent studies show that fluctuations in blood pressure may be missed due to standard intermittent readings.[3],[4]

Hypotension related complications can be reduced by continuous, noninvasive blood pressure monitoring.[1],[2] NICCI helps to ensure you never miss a beat.

Treatment decisions can be determined faster if they are confirmed by an algorithm and hemodynamic normal values. The Peri-operative Value Card may assist the treatment pathway in your clinical routine.

Peri-operative Value Card

Treatment decisions can be determined faster if they are confirmed by an algorithm and hemodynamic normal values. The Peri-operative Value Card allows to reflect on hemodynamic key questions:

  1. Is this an adequate Cardiac Index (CI) for the individual patient?
  2. Would my patient benefit from fluid loading or inotropic/vasoactive drug treatment?
  3. Is the MAP continuously over 65 mmHg?

Incorporate 20 years of intelligence

The NICCI Technology is based on the CNAP's® continuous noninvasive blood pressure technology. The Vascular Unloading Technique`s accuracy is proven in clinical settings for more than 20 years.

The measurement results are comparable to invasive arterial line measurements in terms of continuity, accuracy and waveform dynamics.[9]

Pulsating blood flow detected by infrared light sensors is kept constant by the counter pressure exerted on the artery by inflating or deflating the integrated cuff. The resulting pressure in the finger sensor corresponds to the real arterial pressure.

Advantages of continuous, individualized hemodynamic management

Continous BP

Why we choose continuity

Continuous blood pressure (BP) measurement allows the detection of rapid BP changes often unidentified by upper arm cuff readings and therefore helps to improve perioperative care.[7]

hemodynamic parameter

More than blood pressure

Derived advanced hemodynamic parameters (CI, SVV, PPV, CPI etc.) allow the user to quickly obtain cardiovascular parameters at baseline.[8]

Fluid balance

Individualized patient monitoring

Enables individualized intraoperative fluid management and enables health care professionals to make confident informed therapy decisions.[8]
