ABSTRACT:
A single-use, disposable electrophysiology catheter having an elongated flexible tube with a proximal end and a distal end and a cable permanently secured to the proximal end via a connector is disclosed. The cable has a length of approximately four feet and is in the form of a folded ribbon, encased in a perforated plastic wrap until it is ready to be used. In this manner, the cable remains sterile until it is ready to be used. When the cable is needed, the wrap is torn along the perforation by pulling on the cable. The cable also has an adapter on its proximal end which may be used to attach an extension cable if a greater length is necessary.
