Peripheral vascular electrocautery catheter, single-use

Definition

A flexible catheter with a distal heating element/electrode intended to be connected to an electrical generator and introduced into the peripheral vasculature to ablate venous tissues, through direct application of heat, as a treatment for venous reflux disease (varicose veins); it is not intended to introduce electrical current into the body. It is a luminal device with a proximal handle with controls (e.g., on/off switch) that is introduced via an introducer assembly (which may be included), and is typically maneuvered under external image guidance [e.g., ultrasound (US)]. This is a single-use device.
