Intended Use

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.

Device Story

PressureWire™ X is an interventional guidewire with an integrated distal tip sensor; used to steer catheters and measure physiological parameters (blood pressure, blood temperature) within heart, coronary, and peripheral vessels. Operated by clinicians in a catheter laboratory; the wire connects to a diagnostic computer or hemodynamic recording system via a specific cable or transmitter. The device facilitates real-time hemodynamic monitoring during procedures; aiding clinical decision-making by providing accurate pressure and temperature data. Benefits include precise physiological assessment during catheterization.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing included biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), sterilization (ISO TS 11135-2), particulate matter (USP <788>), container testing (USP <661>), and design verification/validation (physical, mechanical, and coating integrity testing for fractures, friction force, diameter, and straightness).

Technological Characteristics

Guidewire with integrated distal tip pressure/temperature sensor. Features new distal tip design and sensor coating. Sterilized via Ethylene Oxide. Connects to external diagnostic computer/hemodynamic recording system. Complies with ISO 10993-1, ISO TS 11135-2, USP <788>, and USP <661>.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring catheter guidance through blood vessels and measurement of physiological parameters (blood pressure, blood temperature) in the heart, coronary, and peripheral blood vessels.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A catheter tip pressure transducer is a device incorporated into the distal end of a catheter. When placed in the bloodstream, its mechanical or electrical properties change in relation to changes in blood pressure. These changes are transmitted to accessory equipment for processing.
