Description
The Arjo Dopplex PA8XS Adaptor is the electronic adaptor that connects the sterile single-use intraoperative probe to a Dopplex Doppler in theatre. It is supplied as a single unit for professional clinical use.
Main Description
The adaptor is a special electronic design that resists diathermy interference in the operating field. It allows connection to the Dopplex DMX waveform Doppler, and is also used with the SD2 and D900. Simple operation keeps the focus on the vessel rather than the equipment. The adaptor delivers maximum probe sensitivity every time it is connected. It is a durable theatre accessory, reused while the sterile probes are single-use.

Why Choose the Dopplex Intraoperative Probe Adaptor PA8XS?
The case for the Dopplex Intraoperative Probe Adaptor PA8XS rests on documented capability rather than brochure claims. Diathermy interference is the theatre-specific problem this adaptor exists to solve. Standard probe leads do not address it.
- Clean Signal in Theatre – Diathermy resistance keeps flow audio usable around electrosurgery.
- One Adaptor, Many Cases – The durable adaptor pairs with low-cost sterile probes per case.
- Range Compatibility – Works across the DMX, SD2 and D900 units a department already owns.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the PA8XS do?
It connects the sterile single-use intraoperative probe to a Dopplex Doppler so flow can be assessed during surgery.
Which Dopplers does it fit?
The Dopplex DMX, SD2 and D900.
Is the adaptor single-use?
No. The adaptor is reusable. The intraoperative probes are the sterile single-use component.
Why does diathermy resistance matter?
Electrosurgical equipment can swamp a Doppler signal. The adaptor is designed to resist that interference.
Is it included in the starter pack?
Yes. The DISP10XS starter pack includes the PA8XS adaptor with ten probes and an IV pole clamp.
