Intended purpose

The Swan-Ganz bipolar pacing catheters are indicated for use in temporary, transvenous right ventricular pacing.

Functional description

The Swan-Ganz bipolar pacing catheters are designed for temporary right ventricular endocardial pacing. A distal balloon facilitates insertion by flow-direction. A pair of electrodes at the tip provides capabilities for bipolar pacing and electromagnetic monitoring.The catheter has a “J-tip” configuration for femoral insertion to predispose the catheter to a stable pacing position in the apex of the right ventricle.
