SHAPE™ makes in-office patient cardiopulmonary assessment accessible.

  • Validated and reproducible

  • Automatic calibration

  • Non-invasive

It is of paramount importance for perioperative providers to recognize high-risk patients and treat them appropriately.

  • No referring out

  • Testing by nurse or technician

  • Easy-to-interpret reports

Shape II Device

There's a new tool
in pre-surgical assessment

With a simple in-office test, SHAPE™ delivers sensitive and specific data to help the physician make evidence-based decisions to decide the best course of action for optimizing the patient prior to surgery.

A six-minute test for objective assessment and better outcomes.  

Using an exercise test, SHAPE™ provides objective physiologic measurements of patient cardiopulmonary response to exercise.

  • Quantify dyspnea and help identify its physiological basis

  • Measure breathing efficiency, heart/lung coupling, direct correlates of stroke volume and cardiac output

  • Uncover potential issues 

  • Offer objective criteria for patient functional classification

  • Develop strategy for postoperative care

  • Direct measurement of METs and VO2

Intuitive. Easy-to-use.
Clinically validated.

With SHAPE™, testing is user-friendly.

SHAPE™ uses short exercise testing protocols, meaning even high-risk patients can perform the test with minimal discomfort. The SHAPE™ analyzer performs 10 separate system integrity checks prior to each test, and automatically recalibrates daily or more often as needed. Patient test results are easy to interpret and are compared to literature-derived cut off values to assist in assessing patient risk and functional status.

Is this patient optimized for surgery?

The incidence of pulmonary hypertension in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery has risen over the last decade. Patients with known PH have significantly higher perioperative morbidity and mortality, and many may have occult disease.
