The DMX-R is a handheld vascular Doppler unit from Huntleigh, designed to assist clinicians in diagnosing peripheral vascular disease, diabetic foot assessments, wound care, and other areas where blood flow detection is critical. It extends the functionality of the standard DMX by including rechargeable batteries and charger, reducing running costs and improving portability.
The DMX-R shows real-time flow waveforms (directional), not just sound. This visual feedback helps confirm that detected sounds correspond to real flow, especially in low-flow or calcified vessels. Designed with clear display with wide viewing angles, DMX-R enable clinicians to see waveform detail even from different positions.
Clinical Use
-
Peripheral arterial disease diagnosis — detecting and monitoring blood flow in limbs, especially when obstruction or narrowing is suspected.
-
Diabetic foot and wound clinics — verifying perfusion, particularly in superficial vessels or in patients with compromised circulation.
-
Toe or digit vascular assessments — using higher-frequency probes to pick up small vessel flow.
-
Pre- and post-operative vascular surgery checks — confirming restored flow.
-
Podiatry / chiropody work.
-
Ambulatory/home care, mobile clinics — due to its portability and rechargeable power
Competitive Advantages
-
Visual (waveform) + audio feedback improves confidence over audio-only Dopplers.
-
Rechargeable design reduces running costs and reliance on disposable batteries.
-
Versatile probe options let you adapt to a variety of patient types and vessels.
-
Data storage + connectivity allows better documentation and training / audit.
-
Lightweight and ergonomic — easier to move between rooms or locations.
The DMX-R is a robust, advanced Doppler device offering both waveform visualization and audio feedback. Its rechargeable “R” variant adds convenience and cost savings for frequent use. For clinics concerned with precise vascular assessment, diabetic foot care, small or superficial vessel flow, or needing portable Doppler capabilities, DMX-R offers a strong balance of performance, flexibility, and usability.
