Enticos 4 pacemakers combine small size with a complete suite of tools for powerful bradycardia therapy and facilitated handling in long-lasting devices.
The AlCath G FullCircle catheter is availble in various curve sizes with FullCircle (> 180°) deflection. This ensures effective and safe ablations of various cardiac arrhythmias.
In a late breaking trial session during EuroPCR 2023 in Paris, on behalf of the HOST-IDEA study investigators, Dr. Hyo-Soo Kim presented the results of a stent level analysis comparing two ultrathin strut drug-eluting stents (DES): Orsiro® and Coroflex ISAR. The post-hoc comparison revealed significant differences in efficacy. HOST-IDEA is a large scale, multicenter, all-comers randomized controlled trial that demonstrated the non-inferiority of 3- to 6-month versus 12-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after implantation of ultrathin strut DES. 2,173 patients in 37 South Korean centers were enrolled and treated either with Coroflex ISAR DES (n=559) or Orsiro DES (n=1,449). The study outcomes were published in Circulation1. In the presented post-hoc analysis out of a propensity score-matched population, results have shown that2: Dr. Kim also shared additional findings from the post-hoc analysis of the clinical performance of the two devices following either 3- or 12
BIOTRONIK is pleased to announce the limited release of its Oscar® (One Solution: Cross. Adjust. Restore) multifunctional peripheral catheter and start of promotional activities at LINC, the Leipzig Interventional Course held June 6-9 in Leipzig, Germany. As indicated per Instructions for Use, the Oscar catheter is intended for dilation of stenotic segments in peripheral vessels. The device is comprised of three fully user-adjustable components (support catheter with integrated Lock Grip, extendable dilator and length-adjustable PTA balloon). It was developed to provide support during access into and to dilate stenoses in femoral, popliteal and infrapopliteal arteries. The multifunctional system will be featured in the first symposium focused on the Oscar catheter at LINC 2023, with presentations from Drs. Koen Deloose, Peter A. Schneider, Ralf Langhoff, and Mariano Palena on Wednesday, June 7 at 12:30 PM in Main Arena 1 during the session “Versatility Without Compromise: The PAD Workflow of the F
The catheters of the MultiCath family are pre-shaped, multipolar diagnostic catheters for intracardiac application. In combination with a stimulator and recording system, they are especially suited for functional diagnostics of the cardiac conduction system. They are used for programmed electrical stimulation (PES) and the acquisition of intracardiac electrograms (IEGM). The catheters provide placement accuracy, stiffness and flexibility.MultiCath multipolar catheters for electrophysiological diagnostics allow fast, stable and constant positioning and good tissue contact, excellent torqueability and longitudinal stability. Their design characteristics ensure the optimum long-term stability of the catheter at body temperature, while the platinum/iridium electrodes deliver superior sensing capabilities and thus an outstanding signal quality.
Designed specifically for treating atrial flutter, this 95cm-long catheter is optimized for ablating the tricuspid isthmus. High-density braiding and the gold tip's lateral stabilization ensure a stable position on the tricuspid isthmus during the whole ablation procedure, leading to fast and effective results.
The Qiona irrigation pump is the perfect addition to the ablation setup. It features adjustable low flow and high flow functions, preventing coagulation and blockage of the catheter opening. This helps enable the catheter tip to cool.Together with the Qubic RF ablation generator, Qiona is the optimal addition for ablating any atrial arrhythmia, with the Qubic RF seamlessly remote controlling and remotely configuring the Qiona. It's easy to use during complex EP procedures.
