Discover Angiodroid
The Revolutionary CO2 Injector for Peripheral Angiography
Overview
Angiodroid the CO₂ Injector is a patented device revolutionizing the international market for medical CO₂ injections into blood vessels. This innovative technology allows for precise volume and pressure control during injections of medical CO₂, crucially eliminating air contamination risks. As a perfectly biocompatible contrast agent, Carbon Dioxide ensures both high-quality radiological images and enhanced patient safety during angiographic exams.
Angiodroid The CO2 Injector: Where? When? Why? How?
Application fields:
- Interventional Radiology
- Vascular Surgery
- Interventional Cardiology
CO₂ Injection body districts:
- Abdominal Aorta
- Lower Limbs
- Diabetic Foot
- Hemodialysis Fistula
- Renal Arteries
- Pelvic Arteries
- Hepatic Arteries
- Peripheral Venous System
The use of Angiodroid is particularly beneficial for patients undergoing peripheral angiography, especially diabetic patients. It's absolutely essential for patients with iodine allergies or renal conditions, where iodinated contrast might exacerbate issues, potentially causing Contrast-Induced Nephropathy. The CO₂ Injector's automated system ensures safe and efficient contrast delivery in these critical scenarios.
Ease of Use
The Injector's fully automatic operation simplifies the procedure. Operators need only to connect the catheter to the injection line and select from pre-set parameters tailored for each anatomical district. These parameters are customizable to suit specific clinical needs, enhancing the flexibility of the device in various angiographic procedures.

Product Details
Advanced features of the CO2 Injector
Angiodroid offers dual control options: a touchscreen panel and a wireless remote control. The remote functionality allows operators to manage injections from up to 15 meters away, significantly reducing x-ray exposure.
The Injector's built-in pressure sensor continuously monitors performance, ensuring optimal injection conditions.
Additionally, arc-synchronization capability, compatible with Philips, Siemens, and Ziehm Angiosystems, further enhances its versatility in different clinical setups.
Performance and Safety
Data Sheet
Safety
CO₂, being odorless, colorless, and invisible, requires meticulous handling to prevent air contamination and potential embolism. The Angiodroid Injector guarantees the use of pure medical CO₂ through its one-way valve system and automatic catheter washing feature, setting new standards in patient safety for CO₂ angiography.
Rapidity and Efficiency
Angiodroid streamlines the injection process. Once parameters are set, the system automatically loads the precise dose and signals readiness via external LEDs, optimizing workflow efficiency in angiographic procedures.
Simplicity in Design and Operation
The ergonomic design, featuring four wheels with brakes, allows easy mobility between rooms. The Injector's user-friendly interface enables operators to use pre-set parameters, save custom settings, and utilize the Fast Automatic Reload function for rapid, 30-second injection cycles.
This high level of automation minimizes operator dependency, enhancing overall procedural efficiency.
Advanced Software Integration
Angiodroid's Windows-based software offers an intuitive interface with guided operation. It allows for both pre-set and customized parameter settings, ensuring optimal volume and pressure control within safe ranges for each patient.
