The PressureWire™ X guidewire is indicated to direct a catheter through a blood vessel and to measure physiological parameters in the heart and in the coronary and peripheral blood vessels. Physiological parameters include blood pressure. The PressureWire™ X Guidewire can also measure blood temperature.

The PressureWire™ X guidewire has an integrated sensor element at the tip to enable measurements of physiological parameters. The wire is introduced into the patient's blood vessel. A torque device is used to steer the wire and sensor into the required position for pressure measurements according to standard clinical practice. PressureWire™ X guidewire is available in two different lengths. The guidewire is uniquely paired with a specific connection cable or with a specific transmitter. Both PressureWire™ X guidewire connection configurations connect to a diagnostic computer or a catheter laboratory hemodynamic recording system.
