The AtriCure Cryo Module
This section provides a detailed description of the ACM including its function and operating features.
• The ACM is an electro-mechanical cryogenic surgical system that delivers a Nitrous Oxide (N
source to a PROBE to create lines of ablation through tissue. The ACM includes single use PROBES, Component
and Accessories. The ACM provides controlled lesion forming temperature that is below -40°C (-40°F) with typical
operating ranges between -50°C to -70°C (-58°F to -94°F).
• In addition of the Activation Button on the front panel of the ACM, an accessory Footswitch can also be used
to activate and terminate the cryo ablation cycle.
• The ACM is designed to operate only with AtriCure's PROBES. Refer to the AtriCure's PROBE
Instruction for Use for detailed use and description.
