SoKINOX™:
iNO delivery & monitoring system
Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO or KINOX™) delivery and monitoring system to protect vulnerable lives.
or more information
SoKINOX™ is our user-friendly iNO delivery & monitoring device specifically developed to bring easy-to-use inhaled nitric oxide (iNO or KINOX™) to the next level and help your patients inspire breath into life.
KINOX™ is a precise nitric oxide blend for the treatment of term and near-term (>=34 weeks) neonates with a hypoxic respiratory failure, associated with clinical or echocardiographic evidence of pulmonary hypertension. It improves the oxygenation and reduces the need for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
KINOX™ is a selective pulmonary vasodilator for the treatment of neonates developed by Air Liquide Healthcare and characterized by:
- A rapid and reversible action1
- A selective vasodilator which redistributes pulmonary blood flow1
- Reduces the oxygenation index (OI) and increases PaO21
- Absence of systemic effect2
- Reduction in the shunt effect (V/Q) by acting only on ventilated alveoli2
