Whole-body assessment. FAST support. Procedural guidance. Anytime, anywhere.
An integrated imaging solution that supports an array of emergency medicine applications—and never leaves your side.
Perform guided procedures with ease.2
NeedleViz™ technology enables on-screen needle highlighting, for more control during difficult line placements (complicated by obesity, dehydration or IV drug use). The world’s first and only POCUS Biplane Imaging™ allows for simultaneous visualisation of the long and short axis, for ultimate precision. Enable easier line placements and greater clinical confidence.
Perform guided procedures with ease with Biplane Imaging™.2
It is possible to see the short and long axis of your needle simultaneously in real-time. Developed in partnership with clinician leaders in Emergency Medicine, Biplane Imaging has been built to leverage the power of Ultrasound-on-chip™ to fire perpendicular rows of elements at the same time. The result is the ability to see both in-plane and out-of-plane on-screen during peripheral IV access, joint injections and more.
Focused cardiac assessment.
With multiple customised presets dedicated to cardiac imaging, Butterfly iQ+ can give you the confidence to make quick bedside decisions in a large range of patient types. Is there a pericardial effusion? Does this patient have systolic heart failure? Is there organised cardiac activity? In fact, cardiac activity with point-of-care ultrasound has been shown to be the variable most associated with survival after cardiac arrest1.
Lung evaluation.
The assessment of patients with acute shortness of breath has always been a cornerstone of Emergency Medicine, and lung ultrasound can help clinicians rapidly and accurately identify many of the common causes of dyspnea, including lung lesions consistent with COVID-19. With imaging that auto-optimises with depth, the ability to assess A lines, B lines and pleural lining in one sweep is now possible by Butterfly iQ+.
FAST exams.
Focused assessment with sonography in trauma (FAST) is a protocol to guide clinician investigation for internal bleeding. The FAST preset was developed in conjunction with emergency care clinicians to balance the frame rate needed to identify pericardial effusion, and the resolution/penetration needed for rapid evaluation of the peritoneal cavity, all on one probe.
