Samba Preclin 420/360 MR Miniature optical pressure transducers for research in vitro and in vivo. Extra long for use in MRI facilities. Low and high pressure ranges. 10m long. Samba Preclin 360 HP Miniature optical pressure transducers for research in vitro and in vivo. Three high pressure ranges (-0.1 to 5 bar, - 0.1 to 10 bar, -0.1 to 17 bar). Also with radiopaque coating. 4m long. Protective sensor covers are available for special applications 10
Samba Preclin Transducer Pressure can be measured in very small cavities or directly in the tissue of small (or large) animals. The ultra-miniature size minimizes insertion trauma. Insensitive to EM radiation and RF fields (MRI scanner, microwaves etc). Direct measurements with very high precision are made at the sensor location. The transducer does not affect the measuring environment itself. Low risk no electricity or bio-hazardous material. Long transducer possible (up to 10m). 11

Fast and Simple Start-Up Procedure 1. Insert the Samba transducer The transducer is factory calibrated - No further calibration is needed! 2. Turn on your Samba 200 Control Unit Allow internal circuitry temperature to stabilize (1-2 minutes) 3. Set the zero baseline against ambient air pressure The transducer is factory calibrated - No further calibration is needed! Simply follow instructions on the screen ( ZERO or PREVIOUS ) 4. If needed set measurement rate, Absolute/Relative mode, pressure unit etc. or load pre-defined Profile 5. Connect to PC or Data Acquisition System (DAS) When connected calibrate DAS by pressing ANALOG CALIB. 6. Remove protective cover, apply sensor in object and start measuring! 14
Samba vs. Competition The Samba system 1. has a simple and fast start-up procedure (~3 min) just Plug n Play! 2. is factory calibrated and doesn t need further calibration, only an automatic zero baseline set against the atmospheric pressure. 3. is extremely fast (up to 40 khz data sampling rate) and can record high-speed trauma events, for example ICP events caused by collisions. 4. is fully MRI compatible and completely insensitive to any electromagnetic waves radio waves or electrical noise. Real-time measurements and simultaneous recording of both visual and physiological effects of for example a drug is possible. Gating (MRI scanner triggering) for improved MR image quality and movie sequences is also feasible. 5. can measure pressure both in gas and liquid, which allows a very broad use. 15

Pulse Wave Analysis (PWA) PWA, i.e. the analysis of the pulse pressure wave, is a method for studying vascular stiffness PWA provides valuable information for the characterization of cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis and endothelial function The analysis is preferably made on a number of pulse wave cycles selected from a specific time period 22
Parameters in Samba PWA Software Pdiast = end-diastolic pressure Psyst = inflection point in systole Paug = max pressure during entire cycle RRint = heart cycle length Tsyst = time between pdiast and psyst PP = paug pdiast Taix = time from pdiast to paug Aug = Paug Psyst AIx (augmentation index) = Aug/(Paug-Pdiast) Further parameters related to the Dicrotic Notch will be available in future software version 23
