Grounding cable (IVUS CPU to Patient Table ground bar),
The s5i/GE rev 1 is used with phased array catheter provided by Volcano (Eagle Eye Gold
catheter).
The s5i/GE rev 2 includes a new PIM for rotational catheter and another one for FFR capabilities.
The s5i/GE rev 2 release is based on
•
S5x platform
•
3.0.2 software release
The new s5x platform introduces 2 new components:
•
A new IVUS catheter type (rotational catheter) in addition to the current one (phased array
catheter):
The same Graphical User Interface and application will be used for both catheter types, the
user only needs to plug the desired Patient Interface Module and insert a corresponding
catheter type to be able to start imaging.
•
A new application (FFR):
It is a new diagnostic method, the so-called FFR TM (Fractional Flow Reserve) mode which
serves as a blood pressure measurement device in the vascular veins. In this mode the
Volcano s5x device can measure the difference between the patient's aortic and distal
pressure, which result serves as a good decision-helper for the type of treatment.
It also answers some user enhancement requests:
•
Introduction of a sealable Patient Interface Module to prevent oxidation of the catheter
connector.
•
Introduction of a set of cable clamps and a Patient Interface Module's rail hanger with cable
strain relief to decrease cable damage.
•
Introduction of a new monitor cable type to increase the system reliability.
•
Introduction of a new tableside-based TouchPad device to provide an enhanced user interface,
focusing mainly on characterization of the vessel wall on the IVUS image.
