The CO₂ Injector: a CO₂ Injector Dedicated to Angiographic Examinations
The CO₂ Injector from Angiodroid is a CE-certified medical device designed for the controlled administration of carbon dioxide into vascular cavities. Used as a contrast agent in angiography, CO₂ is a relevant alternative to iodinated products, particularly in patients with renal insufficiency, diabetes or hypersensitivity to iodinated contrasts. The device allows precise adjustment of the injection volume and pressure, ensuring usable and reliable radiological images. Intended exclusively for professional use, it is suitable for hospital and clinical environments and can be used in three major disciplines: interventional radiology, vascular surgery and interventional cardiology. Its design meets the strict requirements of angiographic procedures, particularly on the abdominal aorta, lower limbs, renal, pelvic and hepatic arteries, and the peripheral venous system.
Digital Precision and Secure Control
Fully automated and digital, The CO₂ Injector ensures stable and reproducible injection. It has a dual microcontroller that guarantees both high performance and a high level of safety. Its control system prevents any contamination by air, which is essential for avoiding complications. The injection parameters can be precisely configured and saved for different anatomical areas, saving time during subsequent examinations. The device recharges automatically between administrations, ensuring a smooth workflow. Triggering can be performed remotely using a remote control, offering optimal control for medical staff. High precision in maintaining the programmed pressure and volume contributes to diagnostic quality and patient safety.
Design Adapted to Clinical Requirements
The ergonomic design of The CO₂ Injector allows direct connection to the catheter and easy handling thanks to a touchscreen console. It is designed to operate in a controlled medical environment, with a temperature range of +5°C to +35°C and relative humidity of 30 to 75%. It is essential to follow the precautions for use: the maximum dose per injection is 100 mL, and a two-minute interval must be observed between each administration. Certain contraindications exist, particularly for supradiaphragmatic arterial studies or in patients with severe pulmonary insufficiency. When used in accordance with the recommendations, The CO₂ Injector is a reliable and accurate tool that optimises angiographic examinations while reducing the risks associated with traditional contrast agents.
