Cardioblate™ LP

Irrigated RF Surgical Ablation System

Cardioblate™ LP Irrigated RF Surgical Ablation System

Access, flexibility, precision, and consistent conduction block.

Summary

Access and Maneuver with Ease

The Cardioblate LP bipolar device features a new sleek design that enables easy access to the required anatomical structures. The Cardioblate™ LP System (LP device, monopolar pen, and generator) utilises irrigated bipolar RF energy to provide surgeons with a means to ablate tissue easily and simply with confidence that the lesions are transmural.

Lower-Electrode Profile Provides Easy Access to Challenging Cardiac Anatomy

  • The sleek electrodes reduce the amount of dissection required.
  • A flexible neck provides a clear line of sight to the ablation site and optimal positioning for virtually all required lesions.
  • An extended neck makes traversing anatomical structures around the ablation site easier.
  • The 7 cm pre-curved rigid electrodes can be rotated through 300° and feature blunt tips for safe electrode placement.

Important Safety Information

Possible complications related to the ablation of cardiac tissue in combination with open heart surgery are: tissue perforation, extension of extracorporeal bypass, perioperative heart rhythm disturbances (atrial and/or ventricular), postoperative embolic complications, pericardial effusion or tamponade, injury to the great vessels, valve leaflet damage, conductions disturbances (SA/AV node), acute ischemic myocardial event and thrombus formation.
