Arrow ACAT™ 2 Wave® Intra Aortic Balloon Pump
Features:
Converts the highly accurate arterial pressure from the fiber
optic IAB catheter, FiberOptix™ series, to Aortic Flow on
a beat-to-beat basis. Proprietary WAVE™ technology
automatically inflates IAB to coincide with aortic valve
closure. In the presence of an arrhythmia, initiates real-
time, automatic R-wave deflation. Aortic Flow timing
delivers the first truly intra-beat timing system based on
individual patient physiology and virtually eliminating
timing errors no matter how erratic the arrhythmia is. 2
modes of operation: Operator & AutoPilot™. One button
start-up. Full color display with fast inflation and deflation
speeds. Bellows / Stepper motor pneumatics with no
maintenance required. Automatic scaling of ECG and
pressures. Bright, clean display of all parameters, included
assisted and unassisted pressures.

• Filtering: Diathermy, 30 Hz low pass
General Trigger Selection Criteria (AutoPilot Mode)
ECG TRIGGER MODES:
• PATTERN: HR <130 bpm no arrhythmia
• PEAK: HR >130 bpm or arrhythmia detected and arrhythmia timing OFF*
• AFIB: Any HR with arrhythmia detected*
• VPACE: Single or dual pacer (<250 msec apart) and no QRS or AP waveform detected
• APACE: Single pacer with R-wave >100 msec later. Transition only AP TRIGGER MODE:
• No ECG signal or noisy ECG signal
*Based upon deflation timing management.

Inflation/Deflation Timing Methods
INFLATION TIMING METHODS:
• Aortic Flow: Proprietary WAVE algorithm sets the timing intra-beat on average 1 ms of aortic
valve closure1
• Predictive: AP waveform analysis to set inflation
• Weissler: ECG only, inflation timing based on systolic time intervals
DEFLATION TIMING METHODS:
• R-wave: Real-time deflation on R-wave
• Predictive: Deflation set to occur just prior to next systolic rise
• Weissler: ECG only, deflation timing based on diastolic intervals
MANUAL:
• User set inflation and deflation timing in Operator Mode
Inflation/Deflation Timing Limits (Operator Mode)
• ECG: Inflation, 20%–80% of R-R interval; Deflation, 30%–120% of R-R interval
• AP: Inflation, 0–35% of peak systole-peak systole interval; Deflation, 35%–75% of peak
systole-peak systole interval
• AFIB Trigger Mode: Inflation 80 to 430 ms after R-wave trigger event; Deflation on R-wave
