This device includes the following models: six curve types (a, b, c, d, e, and f); tip electrode (4mm tip large and grooved); connector type [redel 10-pin connector (temperature sensing version) and nexus plug (non-temperature-sensing version)]; spacing [standard 2-5-2 spacing (center to center measurement of ring electrode spacing)]. This device is indicated for cardiac electrophysiological mapping and for use with a compatible rf generator for: interruption of accessory atrioventricular (av) condution pathways associated with tachycardia; the treatment of av nodal re-entrant tachycardia; and, creation of complete av nodal block in patients with a difficult to control ventricular response to an atrial arrhythmia. |
