electrodes because lumen and technically not a catheter because no lumen
Fr to mm - ANSWER-1 Fr = .33 mm
Tip inner diameter standard diagnostic cardiac catheters and why - ANSWER-.038
inch / because it is supposed to be used with .035-.038 inch guide wires
What is 2 rules for CMC's like spiral or lasso - ANSWER-1. Only approved for use in LA
due to chordae tendinea
2. Only rotate shaft clockwise
Stereotaxis catheters - ANSWER-Have magnets in tip for maneuverability in response
to changes in magnetic field
What system remotely steers guided catheters - ANSWER-Hansen robotic system
ACT for using array - ANSWER-ACT 250-300
bipolar cardiac electrodes record local _________ that occur during phase _______ -
ANSWER-depolarizations / phase 0
surface EKG leads usually filtered at what - ANSWER-.1 - 100 Hz
Normal EGM filter settings - ANSWER-30 - 300 Hz
What to do if T waves interfere with A/V and why - ANSWER-Increase the high pass
filter because T waves are lower frequency as well as far field
Unipolar filter setting - ANSWER-.05 - 300 Hz
How each is measured: Diagnostic catheter OD , Inflated balloon cath OD, Needle OD,
Guide wire - ANSWER-Diag: Fr / Balloon: mm / Needle: gauge / GW: inch (thousandth
of inches)

needle
which type of guide wire is 260-300 cm long? - ANSWER-exchange guide wires (much
longer than diagnostic catheter)
advantage of bipolar leads - ANSWER-less prone to EMI noise
Unipolar leads more prone to - ANSWER-1. EMI / muscle artifact oversensing
2. pectoralis muscle stimulation (pocket stim)
Steroid tip leads reduce acute: - ANSWER-inflammation and stimulation threshold
Best numbers for ventricular lead - ANSWER-Threshold <1 V / Sensing >4 mV

contrast
Ultrasound transducers are composed of - ANSWER-Piezoelectric crystals
How do ultrasound transducers work - ANSWER-Transducers convert one form of
energy into another. Ultrasound transducers convert electric signals into ultrasonic
energy. The ultrasonic energy is transmitted into tissues, bounces back and then is
converted back to electric energy
doppler transducer uses what - ANSWER-single piezoelectric crystal that sends and
receives
In cardiovascular doppler, what is target off of which ultrasound waves are reflected
back - ANSWER-RBC's

Agitated saline
Where does conductive heating occur - ANSWER-2-5 mm beneath electrode
