Bard's Temporary Pacing Electrode Catheters are designed and built with the quality that has been a Bard trademark for more than 25 years. Their unique construction provides many clinical benefits as outlined below:
- Reduces the need for repositioning, saving physician time and minimizing patient discomfort.
- Enables the electrode to maintain contact with the endocardium, assuring consistent pacing and sensing.
- Facilitates easy and accurate placement, even in difficult anatomies, which may reduce procedure time.
- Proprietary manufacturing process yields an ultra-smooth coating and polished surface.
Bard offers a full line of electrodes for most temporary pacing needs.
- The NBIH® and Goetz® catheter lines are ideal for use in the cath lab or the critical care unit when fluoroscopy is available.
- The Balloon Flow-Assisted catheter line is suited for emergency cases and in critical care units where fluoroscopy is not readily available.
- The Semi-Floating and Special Care catheters offer a cost effective alternative to the NBIH® and Goetz® catheters. They are manufactured with the same quality design but use stainless steel electrodes instead of platinum electrodes.
- The Zucker, Myler™, and Gorlin™ catheters are open-lumen diagnostic pacing catheters useful during right heart procedures and critical care unit monitoring.
