IAB Catheter, 8 Fr dia., Polyurethane/Nylon, 40 cc Balloon, Cardiothane II Balloon Membrane, 27.3 in. Insertable Length, 6 in. Sheath Length, 15 mm Inflated Diameter
Captures and transmits the high-fidelity AP signal at the speed of light, overcoming the delays seen with traditional fluid-filled AP signal systems. The Arrow FiberOptix technology, the world’s first fiber-optic IAB catheter, has been proven in thousands of patients. It is also the only one that works with the unique components of the AutoCAT2 Wave IABP to deliver ProActive CounterPulsation. Arterial pressure signals will go with the speed of light to the pump giving a clean and fast AP signal that will benefit IABP support to the patient.
