High-Fidelity Pressure Sensor
- High frequency response maintains signal integrity and prevents
damping or attenuation of signal
- No motion artifact or overshoot as with conventional fluid-filled
catheters
- 10 µV/V/mmHg sensitivity provides higher measurement
resolution than any other sensor on the market
- Pressure membrane recessed for protection
- Vented to atmosphere to correct for barometric pressure
- Pressure measured at the source from a single instrument
- Catheter connects directly to Harvard Apparatus-HSE TAM-A
or TAM-D Amplifier

Polyimide Tubing
- Provides ideal balance of flexibility
and rigidity, ensuring easy insertion and maneuverability
- Will not fray like many other catheter
materials which, over time, will irritate vascular lining and
valves
- Small diameter of tubing minimizes
impact on aortic flow resulting in more physiologic data
Smooth Profile
- Reduces potential damage to endothelial
lining during catheterization
- Allows for easy passage through aortic
valve (can be inserted and withdrawn repeatedly)
