Figure 1. Over-the-wire Balloon Catheter for venous pacing in the CNS.

Figure 1

Left: Depicted in this image is the novel over-the-wire balloon catheter, which is lined with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), braided with stainless steel and containing a Pebax outer jacket, consists of 6 electrodes. It consists of 2 rows consisting of 3 electrodes each. Each row of electrodes is 5 mm apart from the other and each electrode is 2 mm apart from the next within the same row, allowing for pacing from several different locations without altering catheter position. Right: Detailed schematic of over-the-wire balloon catheter.
