petMAP Information:  Easier and More Accurate Animal Blood Pressure

         
petMAP is a new class of electronic blood pressure measurement device.  It is pocketsize small, and specifically designed for taking blood pressures on cats and dogs, but has been used successfully on many other animals, as well.  New proprietary optimization features enhance animal blood pressure accuracy, and are available only in petMAP . . . species specific (cat or dog) and cuff site optimizations.  You simply select.
 
petMAP provides all vet BP parameters  (systolic, diastolic, MAP) and heart rate utilizing proprietary new oscillometric technology for enhanced sensitivity, accuracy, and performance.  petMAP's optimizations are based on cat and dog intra-arterial measurements.

The best way to learn to use the petMAP is to practice taking readings on your finger. This will allow you to get comfortable with the device prior to using it to measure blood pressure on animals.  Even after practice, it may take 10 - 25 minutes to get the 4-8 good readings (minimal animal motion during the reading and the determination completed in under 45-60 seconds) needed to accurately assess the animal's blood pressure.  The use of petMAP's unique "Nominal Session BP Value" (NSBP) is recommended as the charted BP for the session since it eliminates "outliers" which can distort an ordinary average of the animal's blood pressure values and hence is a more robust measure of the animal's true BP during the session

The palm-sized petMAP animal blood pressure measurement device provides all vet BP parameters and heart rate using the oscillometric method. The accurate, easy-to-use device takes measurements without clipping, gel, a transducer, or speaker box, so pets are less afraid. Seven cuff sizes are included ranging in size from 2.0cm to 5.5cm.

 
   
petMAP is available in two configurations; petMAP classic and petMAP graphic.

Refer to the chart for comparison of each as well as to other veterinary BP devices.
CritterCuffs™ are designed to be used with the petMAP to form a system specifically designed for sensitive and accurate  animal blood pressure measurement .  There are  sizes available ranging from 2.0cm to 8.0cm.  Cuffs are used without clipping, gel, a transducer, or speaker box.

RamseyCuffs are designed to be used with the petMAP to form a system specifically designed for sensitive and accurate animal blood pressure measurement.  There are two sizes available, 10.0 and 13.0cm.  Cuffs are used without clipping, gel, a transducer, or speaker box.
