Steuerbarer Herzkatheter
Khelix 10E Steerable EP Catheter
The Khelix 10E Steerable EP Catheter was developed to decrease the risk of contamination and functional degradation resulting from multiple use. It features a detachable sheath, which is disposed of after the operation. The handle and the guidewire can be reused after sterilisation. This results in large savings with regard to materials and accordingly minimised costs. Thanks to a push-and-pull mechanism on the handle, the guidewire can be accurately steered towards the heart.
Statement by the Jury
The design of this heart catheter shows a careful and responsible use of materials, which greatly enhances efficiency and hygiene.
