Bioptimal Bipolar Pacing Catheters are indicated for use in temporary, transvenous, right ventricular pacing.

Bioptimal's Bipolar Pacing Catheter is made of radiopaque polyurethane catheter tubing at a usable length of 110 cm that allows the use of fluoroscopy for guiding the catheter during insertion or to verify its position when necessary. The catheter has radiopaque bands marked every 10 cm along their length to assist the physician in determining the depth of catheter insertion. The Bipolar Pacing Catheter has an electrode lumen, which provides electrical conductor isolation from electrodes to the connector pins. It has two metal electrodes attached to the distal end of the catheter and the distal electrode forms its distal tip. The proximal electrode is 10 mm apart from the distal electrode. Bipolar Pacing Catheters are available in two generic models: balloon-guided floatation (with balloon) and semi-floated (without balloon), with or without contamination shield. All models have the same basic design, construction and material. The balloon-guided models(BP2502-10 and BP2502CS-10) includes a latex balloon mounted between the distal and proximal electrodes and associated balloon lumen and tubing extension for inflating and deflating the balloon. The balloon is used for the advancement of the catheter tip by means of balloon flotation in the blood flow. The models with a contamination shield (BP2502CS-10 and BPX2502CS-10) have an expandable shield up to 110cm that provides a sterile environment for the enclosed catheter, and hence prevents the contamination of a catheter as it is inserted into and withdrawn from a body cavity or lumen. Balloon guided models are supplied with a 1.0cc syringe for balloon inflation. Bipolar Pacing Catheters are supplied sterile (through ethylene oxide sterilization), non-pyrogenic and are for single use only. The catheter primary packaging: the catheter is packed in a blue thermoformed polystyrene tray and is covered with a clear APET cover held in place by snap buttons. White label printed with the product name, model ID, manufacturer and authorized representative's information, lot number, expiry date, UDI, symbols and other product information is pasted on the clear APET tray cover. The catheter tray is placed inside a sealed Tyvek bag which forms a single sterile barrier primary packaging. The catheter is supplied sterile in a box of 5 units of single sterile barrier primary packaging with IFU.
