Multi-Segment Pressure-Volume Mikro-Tip® Catheters
For Animal Use Only

 

 

Millar Instruments manufactures and markets a line of combination Pressure-Volume (P-V) catheters for use with its pressure-volume system, MPVS Ultra. These catheters combine pressure sensors and electrodes for simultaneous high fidelity pressure and volume measurements, enabling minimally invasive, continuous, intracardiac pressure-volume analysis. P-V models feature a high torque catheter body and range in size from 5 to 7 French in single-field or dual-field configurations, with closed-end pigtails. Model configurations include the availability of a second pressure sensor, and as many as 12 electrodes. Electrode spacing varies to accommodate a range of applications.

Millar also offers Pressure-Volume catheters configured for an apical approach. Please contact the Millar Customer Service Department to select the appropriate catheter and interface cable.

These catheters are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of sixty days from the date of the original shipment and are not repairable.

NOTE: These catheters require a Pressure Control Unit and an interface cable to your monitor. An electrode interface cable to connect to your particular pressure-volume data acquisition system is also required. Please contact the Millar Customer Service Department to select the appropriate electrode and monitor cables. These catheters are warranted for five uses or sixty days, whichever occurs first and are not repairable.

Accessories
Millar Instruments offers a complete pressure-volume system MPVS Ultra as well as a selection of Pressure Control Units and cables that interface Millar Mikro-Tip® catheter pressure transducers to physiological monitors. All accessories are sold separately.
