Results for tag: "Microdialysis"

Microdialysis is a medical device used to measure the concentration of molecules in body fluids. It is a minimally invasive technique that involves the insertion of a small tube into the body, usually through a catheter, to collect samples of interstitial fluid. This fluid is then analyzed to measure the concentration of molecules such as glucose, lactate, and electrolytes. Microdialysis is used in a variety of medical applications, including drug delivery, monitoring of drug levels, and monitoring of metabolic processes. Microdialysis is a rapidly growing market, driven by the increasing demand for minimally invasive medical devices. The technology is being used in a variety of clinical settings, including intensive care units, emergency departments, and operating rooms. It is also being used in research settings to study the effects of drugs on the body. Some of the major companies in the microdialysis market include Medtronic, Fresenius Medical Care, Baxter International, and C.R. Bard. Show Less Read more
