DSI PhysioTel Large Animal Telemetry Implant, 56.0 g, 120 days, model L11R is manufactured by Data Sciences Internatinal, Inc.
The DSI PhysioTel Large Animal Telemetry Implant can monitor physiological signal parameters in awake, freely moving large animals, such as dogs, monkeys, pigs, sheep, horses, or cattle. Researchers can choose from a variety of implant models to monitor pressure, bioelectricity, temperature, activity, etc. according to their needs. The pressure includes: arterial pressure, intraocular pressure, uterine pressure, penile pressure, bladder pressure, pleural pressure, left ventricular pressure, etc. Other parameters include heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean blood pressure, etc., and bioelectrical signals include ECG, EEG, EMG as well as temperature and activity. This implant is capable of recording one pressure, one biopotential, temperature, and activity. In addition, the implant can measure respiratory rate and volume via impedance. The L11R is most commonly used in safety pharmacology and biodefense studies.
