The catheters of the ViaCath family are steerable, multipolar diagnostic catheters for intracardiac application. In combination with a stimulator and recording system, they are 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 improved ViaCath product line offers outstanding pushability and torque transmission, high lateral tip stability and excellent signal quality, while setting new standards in efficient and reliable mapping in electrophysiological diagnostics.
Product Highlights
Wide product range
Multiple curve sizes for use in various anatomies
Handling
Rotational symmetric handle platform with push-pull steering
Connection
Only two BIOTRONIK cables (MPK-4-R or MPK-10-R) are necessary to connect all ViaCath catheters
The ViaCath product family includes ViaCath and ViaCath NG models with various curve sizes and electrode configurations.
ViaCath NG models represent catheters with 4 or 10 electrodes including different curve shapes and electrode spacings, whereas the ViaCath catheter has a 20 pole configuration and is provided in one curve shape. Depending on the intracardiac location and the required intracardiac signals the appropriate ViaCath device (i.e. number of electrodes, electrode spacing and catheter curve) can be selected by the physician. In general, the availability of various electrode numbers and catheter shapes allow the applicability of the ViaCath devices for highly specific diagnostic objectives.
