The Endophys Pressure Sensing Sheath Kit (Endophys Pressure Sensing Sheath and vessel dilator) is intended to facilitate the introduction of diagnostic and interventional devices into the vasculature and to continuously measure blood pressure during the procedure when used with the Endophys Blood Pressure Monitor. Together, the Pressure Sensing Sheath and the Blood Pressure Monitor comprise the Endophys Pressure Sensing Access System (PSAS™).

The Endophys Pressure Sensing Sheath Kit is comprised of the Endophys Pressure Sensing Sheath and vessel dilator. The Endophys Pressure Sensing Sheath and accessories are provided sterile (EO). The Pressure Sensing Sheath ("PSS") is an introducer sheath with an integrated fiber optic pressure transducer. The PSS is provided with a dilator which together make up the Endophys Pressure Sensing Sheath Kit ("PSS Kit"). The PSS Kit is intended to be used only with the Endophys Blood Pressure Monitor ("BPM"), which connects to the PSS and displays the blood pressure measurements. Together with the BPM, the PSS is used to continuously monitor patient blood pressure during procedures requiring vascular access. The PSS introducer sheath is used to assist vascular access in the same manner as do standard catheter introducers. The PSS introducer sheath has an integrated pressure sensor that provides high resolution, continuous and instantaneous pulse wave hemodynamics to monitor blood pressure. Together, the Pressure Sensing Sheath and the Blood Pressure Monitor comprise the Endophys Pressure Sensing Access System (PSASTM). The vessel dilator is used to facilitate insertion of the PSS, and is packaged with the Endophys PSS Kit. Once the PSS has been properly positioned in the vessel, the dilator is removed.
