Medtronic Flexon Temporary Cardiac Pacing Lead

Yes, the Medtronic Flexon Temporary Cardiac Pacing Lead is specifically designed for crucial temporary cardiac support. It is indicated for temporary atrial and ventricular pacing and sensing during and immediately following cardiac surgery.

Yes, the Medtronic Flexon Temporary Cardiac Pacing Lead is constructed using advanced materials to ensure reliability and performance during critical procedures.

Its core structure features a specialized stainless steel twisted, multistrand wire. This robust construction provides:

• Exceptional Strength: Ensuring superior durability for temporary pacing and sensing.
• Great Flexibility: Offering optimal handling characteristics for ease of placement and removal.
• Biocompatibility: The material is also non-magnetic and electro-passive when in contact with tissue fluids.

Yes, the Medtronic Flexon™ Temporary Cardiac Pacing Lead is non-magnetic and electro-passive in tissue fluids.

Each box of the Medtronic Flexon Temporary Cardiac Pacing Leads contains one dozen (12) leads. This quantity provides a standardized supply suitable for clinical use.

Yes, the Medtronic Flexon Temporary Cardiac Pacing Lead is specifically engineered for exceptional strength and great flexibility, providing superior handling characteristics during critical procedures.

This high level of performance and durability is achieved through its core structure:

• The lead utilizes a durable stainless steel twisted, multistrand wire.
• This construction ensures the perfect balance between robustness and superior flexibility, which is vital for temporary atrial and ventricular pacing and sensing during and after cardiac surgery.

The Medtronic Flexon lead is designed for precise surgical attachment, featuring Taper Point sutures and a standard ½ Circle needle curvature.The available configurations vary based on suture gauge size and specific needle type: * Suture Gauge Sizes: Size 0, Size 2-0, and Size 3-0. * Available Needle Types: SC, SC-2, SC-6, CV-23, V-20, and CV-24.These elements are provided in specific configurations (e.g., Straight & Needle CV-23) to meet different surgical needs.

Yes, the Medtronic Flexon™ Temporary Cardiac Pacing Lead is designed with exceptional flexibility and handling characteristics, ensuring ease of use and maneuverability during procedures. It also features a high-strength stainless steel construction for durability and reliability in temporary cardiac pacing and sensing.

The Medtronic Flexon lead uses specialized, biocompatible polymer coatings to insulate its flexible stainless steel wire core, ensuring exceptional performance and safety in tissue fluids. These coatings are key to the lead’s durability and handling properties.

Two types of high-quality coatings are utilized, corresponding to different colors for clinical visibility and identification:

• PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene): Available in Orange or White insulation.
• FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene): Available in Clear insulation.

These specialized polymers are critical because they ensure the lead is non-magnetic and electro-passive in tissue fluids, a vital safety requirement for temporary cardiac pacing applications.

The Medtronic Flexon Temporary Cardiac Pacing Lead is manufactured in one primary length across its various configurations, which include different suture sizes and coating options.

• Standard Fixed Length: The lead is consistently available in a 24-inch (24”) length for most available configurations.

Yes, the Medtronic Flexon Temporary Cardiac Pacing Lead is supplied as Factory New, ensuring optimal performance and reliability for critical cardiac procedures.
