T-Stat for Reconstructive Free Flap Monitoring
T-Stat is the first device to be labeled as “sensitive to Ischemia” and has been proven in multiple trials as an easy-to-use and reliable tool for assessing the adequacy of oxygen delivery to tissue.
​
The T-Stat VLS Tissue Oximeter provides a continuous, non-invasive and localized measurement, sensitive to regional and global ischemia. T-Stat reports a capillary-weighted oxygen saturation which is closely related to a local venous saturation measure.
​
The T-Stat Tissue Oximeter is a unique patient monitor that measures tissue perfusion with Visible Light Spectroscopy. VLS technology provides a reproducible value via broad band analysis. When you need reliability, you can trust T-Stat.

The technology driven sensitivity of T-stat can detect the slightest of changes, giving you the earliest indicator of tissue saturation compromises - hours before other monitoring tools.
The T-stat continuously monitors tissue saturation (St02%) at a micro-vascular level within the capillary bed, providing a better understanding of tissue health based on real-time oxygen delivery and consumption.
​
Real time tissue saturation and hemoglobin readings provide valuable data differentiating between venous and arterial compromise.
Features
T-Stat is the most advanced oximeter on the market. No other device uses broad band white light technology, coupled with fiber optic spectroscopy, producing data to +/-2 standard deviations. This near absolute value provides an accurate representation of flap perfusion at the microvascular level. T-stat readings represent immediate oxygen consumption in the skin island, directly correlating to arterial and venous flow.
Don't guess what the values mean, know what they mean so you can accurately manage your patients.
NON-INVASIVE
Skin surface sensors avalible in two sizes non-invasively monitor even the smallest of skin islands.
REMOTE ACCESS
T-stat readings are always accessible/using our web-based OnCall system. The data is safe, HIPAA compliant and is readily available to you within your own private account.
View immediate St02% and Hemoglobin readings in one easy location- quicker and easier than calling bedside staff.
"T-Stat's ability to also monitor concentration has helped me identify venous outflow issues way before any visible clinical changes, greatly speeding up return to the OR and maximizing the opportunity for flap salvage. Our flap success rate is almost 100%"

The T-Stat Monitoring System
The complete monitoring system consists of the T-Stat VLS Tissue Oximeter and a sensor that is specifically designed for three unique applications. Each sensor contains a white LED light to illuminate the tissue in the capillary bed. The signal is then returned through a fiberoptic bundle for real-time spectrographic analysis.
