Product snapshot
ADInstruments CODA Monitor Device Enabler is a connector tool that links the CODA system to LabChart, allowing continuous capture of physiological signals from small animal models. It leverages Volume Pressure Recording (VPR) sensor technology to gather high-resolution cardiovascular data and delivers those streams directly into the LabChart environment for immediate review and analysis.
Parameters monitored
- Heart rate — continuous beats-per-minute tracking for cardiovascular rhythm analysis.
- Mean arterial pressure — an ongoing measure of average blood pressure across the cardiac cycle.
- Diastolic blood pressure — the lower-pressure reading during heart relaxation phases.
- Tail blood flow — measurements reflecting perfusion through the tail vasculature.
- Systolic blood pressure — peak pressure recorded during cardiac contraction.
- Tail blood volume — volumetric changes in the tail circulation detected by VPR sensors.
Laboratory advantages
Because the enabler feeds live signals into LabChart, researchers gain real-time visibility into multiple blood pressure metrics without manual aggregation. Its streamlined acquisition reduces time spent on data handling and improves measurement consistency across experiments. The tool is distributed under a free license, helping labs lower software costs while maintaining reliable data collection.
Alternate option to consider
Suggested alternative: SHAREit (free). If your primary need is fast file or data transfer between devices rather than direct physiological data streaming, this freely available utility is often recommended as a convenient option.
