Edwards Lifesciences PX260 TruWave™ Single Pressure Monitoring Kit (Adult)

The Edwards Lifesciences PX260 TruWave™ Single Pressure Monitoring Kit is a sterile, single-use invasive pressure monitoring system designed to accurately measure physiological blood pressures (arterial, venous, or intracardiac). It transmits pressure signals from an indwelling catheter to a bedside patient monitor, enabling continuous and reliable haemodynamic monitoring in critical care settings.

This kit incorporates the trusted TruWave™ disposable pressure transducer, flush device, IV administration set, and pressure tubing to deliver precise waveform fidelity and safe blood pressure measurement.
