Fort St. Building 34 Boise, ID. 83702 To be considered technically acceptable, the products must meet the following minimum salient characteristics: Must meet minimum salient characteristics to be technically acceptable: Salient document for Cheetah Starling TM SV Noninvasive Cardiac Output and Hemodynamic Monitoring System. The noninvasive cardiac output monitor (NICOM) will be used to evaluate quickly a patient s fluid volume status in a noninvasive manner. It eliminates risk of infection and vascular damage associated with invasive Technology requiring arterial lines or central line placement. These will be used in ER, ICU, and SDU patients. It will help determine between Septic, Cardiogenic or Hypovolemic shock and determine if the patient is a fluid responder. It also guides fluid resuscitation in sepsis without overloading patient. It directly monitors the response of cardiac output changes due to therapeutic intervention in cases of cardiogenic shock. Also determines if low urine output is related to low cardiac output. All of these have very specific treatment decisions needed and if known quickly and early will improve patient outcome while simultaneously containing or avoiding costs. By quickly and noninvasively determine status of patient, we can save lives, shorten length of stay of the patient, and improve patient outcomes while saving large amounts of money. The system needs to be 100% Noninvasive Must monitor Cardiac output within 2 minutes of application of monitor. Must determine Cardiac Output, Cardiac Index, Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP), Cardiac Stroke Volume,(SV1),, Stroke Volume Index, Heart rate, and Peripheral Vascular Resistance. (PVR) All parameters need to measured in real time Must display values in graphics and digital form to trend parameters. Must be portable and easy to take to patient Must show correct and incorrect sensor placement. Values cannot be affected by Vasopressor or Inotrope drugs. Vendor shall be an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) authorized dealer, authorized distributor or authorized reseller for the proposed equipment/system such that OEM warranty and service are provided and maintained by the OEM. All software licensing, warranty, and service associated with the equipment/system shall be in accordance with the OEM terms and conditions.
