Sensation 7 Fr. IAB Catheter

The Sensation 7Fr. 34cc and 40cc IAB catheters feature a small diameter. This small size is a suitable option for small patients, diabetics, and those with peripheral vascular disease (PVD), as the increased free arterial lumen with smaller catheters reduces the complication rate.[1] Faster set-up compared to conventional IABs with no need to level and zero the arterial line, simplified pressure monitoring with in vivo calibration.[2]
