In addition to StO2 measurements, ForeSight™ Sensor trends the relative change in total tissue hemoglobin (ΔctHb). The ΔctHb parameter gives you greater insights into potential causes of StO2 imbalances so that you can better understand and respond to desaturation events.

The right monitoring makes a difference – for all your patients' differences
The tissue oximetry and advanced hemodynamic insights you need to identify and even reverse cerebral desaturations for a diverse patient population are now available on one monitor.
ForeSight™ Tissue Oximetry Sensor:
- Accounts for patient-to-patient differences, including skin tone, size, age, scalp-to-cortex distance and acuity
- Delivers absolute StO2 values, making a preinduction baseline optional
- Measures relative change in total tissue hemoglobin, providing insights into causes of StO2 changes
- Integrates with HemoSphere platform for an all-in-one view of patient perfusion
With ForeSight™ Sensor, you can have the reliable, actionable tissue oximetry insights you need to intervene when it matters most.

A tissue oximetry sensor designed with patient differences in mind
Due to the limitations in some other tissue oximetry sensor designs, patient differences including melanin or bilirubin concentrations, cranial thickness, etc., can cloud the accuracy – and therefore the reliability – of oxygenation measures.
With a unique sensor design and exclusive fifth wavelength of near infrared light (NIRS), ForeSight sensor can account for these patient differences – enabling reliable StO2 measures from patient to patient.
Figure 1. Preoperative tissue oximetry, Sun et. al.
In conventional two-wavelength tissue oximetry systems, skin pigmentation has been shown to interfere with the clinical measurement of regional cerebral oxygen saturation.1
Figure 2. Foresight sensor readings by race, Stannard et. al.
Tissue oxygenation monitoring using a fifth wavelength of NIRS has been shown to accommodate for the melanin present in a patient’s skin.2
ForeSight™ Sensors is designed to penetrate 25% deeper than other technologies
Research shows that a 2 cm depth of penetration is insufficient for accurate measurement of StO2 in adult cardiac patients with a deeper scalp-to-cortex distance. But ForeSight™ Sensors is designed to penetrate deeper. At 2.5 cm, ForeSight™ Sensors can provide reliable readings for patients with greater than 2 cm scalp-cortex distance.

Absolute values, actionable insights
ForeSight™ Sensor algorithms are calibrated and validated to both cerebral and somatic regions:
- Cerebral oximetry SctO2 calibrated and validated to SjvO2
- Somatic oximetry SmtO2 calibrated and validated to ScvO2
Additionally, you can view regional oxygenation values specific to sensor location via HemoSphere advanced monitoring platform.
Because ForeSight™ Sensor integrates with HemoSphere™ Advanced Monitoring Platform, you get more than numbers—you get comprehensive insights into patient perfusion, as well as the ability to identify the root cause of imbalances.
Cerebral desaturations are:
-
Common
Mean desatuation incidence across studies1-9
-
Critical
Linked to increase risk of cognitive dysfunction, 4 POCD10 and mortality11
-
Treatable
Reversing or avoiding cerebral desaturations has been shown to reduct incidence of cognitive impairment,12 ICU stay1 and hosptial stay1

One monitor, comprehensive insights
Tissue oximetry measures are only one part of a surgical patient’s hemodynamic profile.
That’s why the ForeSight™ System is available as part of the HemoSphere™ Advanced monitoring platform – making it the only system that allows you to see a comprehensive view of patient perfusion (including pressure, flow and tissue oximetry) on the same monitor.
This “all-in-one” view delivers comprehensive insights into patient perfusion that can help you drill down to identify the root cause of imbalances – enabling you to administer interventions with confidence.
