Tissue Saturation Index (TSI) - Absolute oxygenation measure in local tissues
Tissue Saturation Index (TSI) is an absolute measure for the local tissue oxygenation in tissue beneath the sensor. To obtain TSI, a technique called Spatial Resolved Spectroscopy (SRS) is used. TSI can be measured in both brain and muscle. Some of our devices provide the possibility to acquire absolute TSI, next to relative concentration changes in oxy- and deoxygenated hemoglobin. Learn more about the TSI and how to correctly use it in this blogpost.
Non-invasive evaluation of the endothelial and microvascular dysfunction induced by COVID-19
To provide professional intensive care specifically fit to cure COVID-19, hospitals need the appropriate space and equipment. Health care professionals have been working with limited resources in extreme environments but knowledge and experience is rapidly expanding. Several institutes have been implementing NIRS to study the endothelial and microvascular dysfunction to support the development of targeted and individualized therapies.
