Brief History of SwRI
|
| |
 |
| |
SwRI developed the first
commercially available continuous arterial blood gas
monitor. This medical device uses an indwelling
radial artery catheter with fiber optics to measure
pH, pCO2, and pO2. |
Experience in a broad range of laser and electro-optics
applications allows Southwest Research Institute (SwRI)
engineers to provide clients with laboratory and
commercial product design and evaluation.

SwRI's technical and support staff of over
3,000 offers clients a broad range of bio-optical and
multidisciplinary expertise to perform testing, conduct
experiments and develop electro-optical products. |
