Pressure-Volume (PV) Loop Catheters
For complete pressure-volume (PV) loop analysis in both large and small animal models, Millar’s pressure-volume (PV) loop catheters integrate seamlessly with the MPVS Duo™ system. These catheters combine high-fidelity pressure sensors and electrodes for simultaneous, real-time pressure and volume measurements, enabling minimally invasive, continuous intracardiac PV analysis with unprecedented accuracy and precision.
PV Loop Catheters are available in a range of sizes, from 1 to 6 French catheter tip diameters, and in single-field or dual-field configurations to accommodate various heart sizes. They are ideal for closed-chest or open-chest surgical procedures, as well as isolated working heart studies.
