18 devices GMDN 62679
Transvenous phrenic nerve electrical stimulation control units are medical devices that deliver electrical impulses to the phrenic nerve through a vein, causing the diaphragm to contract and assist patients in being weaned from mechanical ventilation. These devices are used clinically to help patients breathe more independently by stimulating natural breathing patterns.
When browsing this category, readers should know that these devices are typically supplied as systems including a pulse generator and user interface for adjusting stimulation settings. They are electrically-powered and designed specifically for temporary use during the ventilation weaning process.
