FAQs of Abbott PACEL BIPOLAR PACING CATHETERS VENTRICULAR PACING WITH RIGHT HEART CURVE Torque Control:
Q: How is the Abbott PACEL Bipolar Pacing Catheter used during procedures?
A: The catheter is introduced into the venous system and navigated to the right ventricle using the specialized right heart curve and torque control, allowing precise placement under fluoroscopic guidance for temporary endocardial ventricular pacing.
Q: What benefits does the torque control design offer?
A: The torque control technology allows clinicians to maneuver the catheter with high accuracy, reducing the risk of misplacement and providing better control during navigation within the heart.
Q: When should this pacing catheter be used?
A: The PACEL Bipolar Pacing Catheter is intended for temporary transvenous ventricular pacing in both adult and pediatric patients, typically during situations such as arrhythmia management, post-cardiac surgery monitoring, or emergencies requiring immediate pacing.
Q: Where is the Abbott PACEL Bipolar Pacing Catheter indicated for use?
A: This catheter is designed for use in hospitals, surgical centers, and emergency care settings requiring temporary ventricular pacing support. It is suitable for procedures performed under fluoroscopy for accurate placement.
Q: What is the step-by-step process for using this catheter?
A: After sterile preparation, the catheter is inserted through a suitable vein and advanced to the right ventricle. The operator uses torque control and the right heart curve for precise intracardiac navigation, confirmed by fluoroscopic visualization of the radiopaque tip.
Q: What are the main advantages of this catheter for clinical practice?
A: Key advantages include high placement accuracy, straightforward handling due to torque control, clear visibility under fluoroscopy, and compatibility with standard pacing systems, all contributing to safe and effective patient care.
Q: Is this catheter suitable for pediatric patients and those with latex allergies?
A: Yes, the Abbott PACEL Bipolar Pacing Catheter is designed for use in both adult and pediatric patients and is completely latex-free, minimizing allergy risks.
