BladderScan® BVI 6300

The BladderScan^® BVI 6300 is a handheld, noninvasive ultrasound instrument that is prescribed by a physician or other healthcare provider to enable the patient to monitor his or her own bladder fullness on an ongoing basis. It is easy to use and quickly provides accurate results, so the patient can make informed decisions about when voiding is necessary.

Using ScanPoint^®, Verathon Medical's innovative online service, the healthcare provider programs the BladderScan® BVI 6300 with information about the patient's target bladder volume. Measurements are displayed as a percentage of this target volume.

The easy-to-use BladderScan® BVI 6300:

Displays measurements as a percentage of bladder fullness
Is customized with the patient's individual target bladder volume
Features pre-void and post-void settings
Prevents urinary retention
Helps avoid incontinent episodes
Eliminates unnecessary catheterization (where applicable), decreasing the chance of upper urinary tract damage and infection (UTI)
Restores freedom and improves patient's quality of life

When the patient comes for a follow-up appointment, the healthcare provider can view a record of all the patient's exams using ScanPoint^®, as all exam data is saved on the instrument. To facilitate the monitoring of bladder function, the BladderScan® BVI 6300 has pre-void and post-void settings that are selected prior to every exam. ScanPoint^® displays exam results, including pre- and post-void exams, on a printable scatter plot.

The BladderScan® BVI 6300 is particularly beneficial for patients on intermittent catheterization schedules and patients with neurogenic bladders. For patients, the BladderScan^® restores personal freedom and improves quality of life. For the healthcare provider, it offers a new and improved method for monitoring patient bladder function on an ongoing basis.
