Ultrasound Transducer Holder for Vascular Assessments During Hyperemic Blood Flow

摘要

An ultrasound transducer probe holder device comprising a support piece; a base connected to the support piece; a cylindrical orifice within the support piece; a housing extending from the orifice and defining a cavity; a sleeve for insertion within the orifice; and an adjustment screw fitted in the housing for contact with the sleeve. The device supports and maintains the position of an ultrasound transducer probe to provide for a hands-free application of the device during different modalities of exercise required to instigate hyperemic conditions while providing x, y, z, positional adjustments of the probe relative to the patient.
