Written question asked by Lord Walton of Detchant (Crossbench), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Earl Howe (Conservative) on Thursday, 24 January 2013.
Health: Oesophageal Doppler Monitoring
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they will expedite the availability of oesophageal Doppler monitoring during surgery in the National Health Service, in the light of advice from the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence. [HL4663]
- Answer
-
Oesophageal Doppler monitoring, along with other National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) approved fluid management monitoring technology, has been chosen as a high impact innovation for the National Health Service. It is for individual commissioners, working with their providers, to determine when and where they should be used in line with NICE guidance.
The NHS Technology Adoption Centre has produced a technology adoption pack, generically labelled “Intra-Operative Fluid Management”, which includes clarity on the competing technologies in the marketplace, together with the evidence that supports their use.
