The Arrow wedge-pressure catheter from Teleflex is designed to offer precise measurements of hemodynamic pressures in the right heart, helping clinicians to evaluate patient cardiac status in order to develop the proper treatment plan. The Arrow balloon wedge-pressure catheter is indicated for use in sampling blood for oxygen levels and measuring pressures in the right heart (including central venous pressure, right ventricular pressure, pulmonary artery pressure and pulmonary artery wedge pressure). In the case of anatomical cardiac defects the catheter may be used in any chamber which can be entered from the right heart. The Arrow balloon wedge-pressure catheter is also indicated for use in balloon occlusion femoral angiography (BOFA) of the contralateral leg for adult patients.
