Scalable, Non-Invasive Tissue Oximetry Monitoring
Never Miss a Moment
Traditional NIRS-based oximeters are often limited to use in critical patients in ICUs, cath labs, and the OR. Envello Core, initially designed for the American warfighter, is engineered to offer non-invasive continuous tissue oximetry monitoring in a miniaturized, scalable and wireless device for patients across any clinical settings – ranging from the ER to the ICU, to the home and beyond. The ability to perform continuous, real-time tissue oxygen monitoring and identify tissue perfusion trends may help detect declining health earlier, including reduced cardiovascular performance, and lead to earlier treatment and disease management.

- IP67 waterproof
- Reusable


Tissue Oximetry is Complimentary to Pulse Oximetry
Not all optical technologies are created equal. Although pulse oximetry (SpO2), a common vital sign, plays an important role in detecting how well lungs are oxygenating blood it provides limited to no information on tissue delivery.
In an induced limb ischemia experiment, we can see that blood oxygen concentration remains consistent as tissue oxygen (StO2) concentration declines. When the occlusion or blockage of the blood vessel is released, tissue oxygenation recovers. A similar effect may be seen in patients with hypovolemic shock, reduced cardiac output, arterial occlusions, and other cardiovascular conditions.

Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS)
Uses infrared light to measure continuous optical absorption of oxygen from hemoglobin (oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells) in capillary, arterial, and venous blood in the area under the sensor.
NIRS may be used to measure:
- Continuous oxy vs deoxy hemoglobin
- Somatic tissue oxygenation (StO2) trends
- Muscle
- Bone
- Cerebral oxygenation (Sc02) trends
Photoplethysmography (PPG)
Uses infrared light to measure alternating absorption changes in arterial blood only.
PPG may be used to measure:
- Arterial blood oxygen saturation (SpO2)
- Pulse rate (PR)
- Respiratory rate (RR)
Envello Core is designed to provide both NIRS and PPG measurements continuously with a single compact sensor.
