- GMDN category: Cardiac radio-frequency ablation system catheter
Intended purpose
The AlCath catheter is intended as a temporary, unidirectional steerable quadripolar catheter for intracardiac RF ablation as well as for sensing of intracardiac signals and diagnostic pacing. They are intended for treatment of supraventricular, ventricular and atrioventricular cardiac tachyarrhythmia and AV node reentry tachycardia.
Functional description
AlCath TC G are temporary, steerable, quadripolar ablation catheters for intracardiac application. Used for treatment of cardiac tachyarrhythmia by RF ablation therapy & for sensing of intracardiac signals. Can be connected to an ablation generator & an EP measuring station. A thermocouple integrated in the tip electrode facilitates permanent temperature control. AU electrode guarantees smallest possible transition resistances & excellent electrical and thermal properties.
