Caresono HD3 Bladder Scanner
The HD3 Bladder Scanner is equipped with real-time high-resolution 3D ultrasound images that measures the urinary bladder volume quickly, safely and automatically. The HD3 bladder scanner is non-invasive and easy to use for healthcare professionals. A bladder scanner is a non-invasive, portable ultrasound device that provides a virtual 3D image of the bladder and the volume of urine retained within the bladder. Retained urine is a reservoir for bacteria and pathogens, which can cause urinary tract infections, leading to damage of the renal structures, pain, and sepsis. Bladder scans are commonly utilized in acute care, long-term care, and rehabilitation environments, as well as in physicians' offices. Without the use of a bladder scanner, urinary retention is assessed by performing an invasive "in and out" urinary catheterization, which can be uncomfortable and pose a direct risk of introducing more pathogens into the bladder, increasing a patient's risk of infection.
