The LEYCOM

 Cardiac Function Lab CFL-512 facilitates the on-line 

measurement and analysis of ventricular pressure and volume signals in clinical 
setting. The pressure and volume signals are obtained using a combined 

conductance and pressure catheter. The CFL-512 acquires and displays these 

signals on-line and continuously. The signals are digitized, stored and can be 

subsequently played back and analyzed the users convenience. 

 

The Leycom

 CFL-512 is a stand-alone device, which can be easily used in 

different clinical environments. The system, including the software for data 

acquisition and analysis, has been developed in close co-operation with a group 

of clinical users of Leycom

 equipment. 

  

The Leycom

 CFL-512 consists of a bedside 'patient module' and a console. 

The bedside 'patient module' is a state of the art, battery powered, data 
acquisition module. The module, to which the conductance catheter is 

connected, contains sophisticated circuitry, which ensures optimal patient safety 

and extended battery life.  

The 'patient module' is communicates with the Leycom

 CFL-512 console via 

a fibre optic cable; this provides complete patient isolation from electrical 
hazard. 

The 

dedicated computer 

is Intel Pentium based, has a 40 Gb harddisk, enough 

for hundreds of hours of data acquisition, at 12 channels and 250 samples per 

second. 

 

With the Leycom

 CFL-512 software, time-varying ventricular volume, 

pressure, ECG, a large number of hemodynamic variables and Pressure-volume 

loops can be displayed. The slope and intercept of the end-systolic pressure-

volume relation (a measure of ventricular performance) are calculated, as well as 

other related variables.
