***This solicitation is being reposted due to no prospective bids were received.
This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a separate written solicitation will not be issued. All responsible sources may submit a quotation which, if timely received, will be considered by the Agency. All proposals received will be evaluated and awarded to the vendor that provides the "best value" to the government.
NAMRU-D requires a fingertip plethysmograph to measure continuous, beat-to-beat blood pressure, cardiac output, blood flow curve, stroke volume, cardiac contractility, and left ventricular ejection time. Cardiac output must be low in error, less than 10%. It must have fast deflation and is motion tolerant. It must measure respiration rate and produce a respiration waveform with chest impedance technology. It must also have a height-correction unit to ensure that subjects can move their arms freely during measurements. The pressure measurement is highly dependent on the position of the hand (above, below, or at heart level). A height-correction unit accounts for measurement site, and any changes in measurement site to always reflect arterial pressure. The device must not require recalibration every 15-60 min so as not to interfere with longer durations studies. The device must allow for inputs and outputs to allow correlation of recorded data from other systems. Additionally, to save money on future consumables, we do not want disposable cuffs, and instead we require cuffs that last for many years.
This requirement's needs can only be met by the following brand name items from Finapress, using their Nova NC ECG System. The following part numbers are requested by NAMRU-D.
QTY: 1 P/N: FP_N03.283 Finapres® Nova NC ECG
Finapres ® NOVA hardware/software standard configuration with 5 lead ECG selected consisting of:
- Front end unit with 3 cuffs (sizes S, M, L) and height correction system (HCU);
- Computation of the brachial pressure wave form and level from the finger pressure;
- Finapres ® NOVA software license;
- User manual
- Analog Input-Output module, 2 in / 8 out
- Upper arm calibration module for absolute accuracy
- ECG Module with 3 lead cable (AHA) including Respiration module
QTY: 1 P/N: FP_N98.004 Hemodynamics Modelflow Application
Advanced hemodynamics: This software package calculates advanced beat-to-beat hemodynamic parameters: cardiac output (CO & CI), stroke volume (SV & SVI), total peripheral resistance (TPR), cardiac contractility (dP/dt) and left ventricular ejection time (LVET). These values are optimized to show accurate trends over time, and they can be calibrated through a per patient thermo-dilution calibration procedure to allow visualization of absolute values.
QTY: 1 P/N: FP_N98.016 Finapres Nova Scope application
Finapres Nova Scope application: NovaScope software, for reviewing files afterwards on a PC. Not for analysis, reviewing only.
QTY: 1 P/N: FP_N99.C01 Extra finger cuff size S
Extra finger cuff (size S) for Front End Unit
QTY: 1 P/N: FP_N99.C02 Extra finger cuff size M
Extra finger cuff (size M) for Front End Unit
QTY: 1 P/N: FP_N99.C03 Extra finger cuff size L
Extra finger cuff (size L) for Front End Unit
QTY: 1 P/N: FP_N99.H03 Extra height correction system (HCU)
Extra height correction system (HCU) for Front End Unit
