BodiFLO ResearchBodiFLO Research Develop and test a simple non invasive method to monitor intracranial fluid dynamics.

Develop and test a non invasive means to measure compartmental fluid volumes in the body.

Integrate simultaneous display and analysis of the most important physiological parameters into a single CPU/Monitor for the ICU.

This system and the analysis it performs is based on principles of bioimpedance measurement that have been used for more than half a century. In the IPG scan system the blood flow volume and flow are approximated in real time (Impedance Plethysmography, IPG) and displayed to screen on a convenient laptop platform.

4 Channel REG System The BodiFLO 4-Channel REG is a “Brain Blood Flow Impedance Monitoring”

system. This simple and non-invasive method has been developed to monitor head fluid dynamics. The 4-Channel REG records the constantly changing interaction of pressure and volume inside the cranium occurring with each heartbeat, breath, and fluctuation due to metabolic/hydration readjustment.

The waveform generated by the corresponding volume changes in either hemisphere is recorded by the 4-Channel REG. This is the first system that has been able to display the two hemispheres independently.

BodiFLO Multi-Frequency REGBodiFLO Multi-Frequency REG Under current development is the Multi-Frequency Multi-Channel Impedance system. This System is

a potential ‘Game Changer’. The potential development of EIS for the Head and Body with 4 to 6 Channels and Multi-Frequencies (16, 100 and 200 kHz) will potentially provide a major shift in terms of being able to measure more accurately the dielectric properties of the fluid mediums within the brain and body.

The Multi-frequency REG should be considered to be: 1. MULTI CHANNEL (3 CHANNELS LEFT HEMISPHERE; 3 CHANNELS RIGHT HEMISPHERE) 2. IN THE STEADY STATE TO USE THREE FREQUENCIES (16 kHz, 100 kHz and 200 kHz) FOR EACH

HEMISPHERE 3. ALSO IN THE PULSING STATE USE THE SAME THREE FREQUENCIES AS FOR STEADY STATE

RESISTANCE, BUT MEASURED BY THE APPLICATION OF 6 ELECTRODES ON THE HEAD. 4. 6 ANALOGUE OUTPUT CABLES TO THE POWERLAB FOR EACH CHANNEL (3 PULSING, 3 STEADY

STATE)
