Experience the Freedom of a Cordless Vascular Doppler

From phones and computers to drills and saws, cordless devices have simplified our lives and provided freedom that is not unlike the freedom of a cordless Doppler.

However, cordless Dopplers provide an additional layer of reassurance in the medical field by helping to maintain infection control at a time when surgical site infections have experienced a 2% rise.¹

Regardless of what devices we may be using that still have cords, thankfully we typically don’t need to worry about sterile fields. If the cord gets stuck or touches something, it isn’t an infection risk. Traditional corded Dopplers, however, require a heightened sense of awareness and accountability when compared with new cordless Dopplers because corded Dopplers require clinicians to reach across the length of a patient to get an accurate blood flow check to avoid compromising the sterile field.

Using a traditional corded Doppler device also comes with cleaning and disinfection challenges. While the crevices, buttons, and seams typical of traditional Doppler systems make it easy for bacteria to harbor, the VascuChek® wireless Doppler is fully encapsulated in a sterile sheath, preventing contact with bodily fluids.

VascuChek’s design also enables clinicians to easily adjust positioning and volume without assistance, easing overall surgical workflow.

For example, during vascular screenings in a busy outpatient surgical center, vascular surgeons may use the VascuChek Doppler to assess blood flow after catheter placement. In the past, they often had to call in an assistant to help reposition cords and cables or adjust the Doppler’s volume — especially when working around the sterile field. With VascuChek’s cordless design and intuitive controls on the handheld unit, surgeons can now make real time adjustments to both positioning and volume without assistance, allowing the entire surgical team to maintain more focus during crucial moments of surgery.

In these scenarios, a circulating nurse would have to adjust outdated devices outside the sterile field and close to the surgeon’s ear to get accurate readings, risking contamination. Often, the OR staff will hang the equipment from the IV pole to free up their hands for other tasks, bringing more risks of the device falling or losing connection. Now, VascuChek’s cordless portability, ergonomic grip and responsive buttons means surgeons can maintain their workflow without communicating with a circulating nurse or reaching for a separate console.

The result? Streamlined procedures, greater independence, and reduced surgical team stress—all while maintaining sterility and helping to enhance patient safety.

This improved workflow can be especially critical during high-risk surgeries, where the team works under tight time constraints to restore blood flow. Where traditional vascular Dopplers may have required teams to pause to route cables, ensure sterility, or call in an assistant to help manage the device — each step creating a slight delay and potential distraction during a critical moment — VascuChek allows surgeons to assess flow without breaking focus or waiting on anyone else.

Join the industry as it embraces the new, cordless and modern error of vascular healthcare. Compromising the sterile field with a clunky cord or routing cables during critical surgery can have major impacts on health and safety. Embrace newfound Doppler freedom with VascuChek.
