CVX-300

The Spectranetics CVX-300 excimer laser in conjunction with proprietary optical fiber catheters is the only excimer laser system approved for use in the removal of cardiac pacemaker and defibrillator leads.

Why excimer laser technology?

Our laser shows fast* and predictable clinical outcomes for removing cardiac leads.**
A wide selection of laser sheaths allows the system to easily adapt to nearly every situation in which the intent is to improve blood flow and remove cardiac leads bound by surrounding scar tissue.**
Achieve high lead removal success rates over mechanical sheaths.*
