The innovative design of the QuickSite(TM) Model 1056K lead advances the state of the art in left heart lead design by delivering the pushability and torquability of a polyurethane lead body with the flexibility of a silicone distal tip," said Michael J.
The downsized IsoFlex(R) family of silicone and polyurethane leads gives implanting physicians greater flexibility in choosing a lead that's just right for each patient," said Michael J.
The lead incorporates a number of important new features including: - a polyurethane lead body transitioning to a distal silicone tip section for optimal pushability, torque transfer and tip flexibility; - an "S" shaped distal tip conductor designed for improved shape retention and anchoring of the lead at varying locations within the coronary sinus; - the ability to position the lead using either a specialized ball-tipped guiding stylet or a guidewire for maximum flexibility in lead placement.
