Arrow®

AC3 Optimus™ Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump
Simply outstanding performance, support, and efficiency in an IABP

AdvancedIABP performanceeven in the mostcritical conditions
For patients requiring mechanical cardiac support, theperformance of your IABP can mean all the difference.
With the onset of an elevated heart rate or arrhythmia,
the patient’s survival can suddenly depend on the abilityof the IABP to keep pace with the situation. The AC3Optimus™ Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump provides intra-beatinflation timing accuracy across the broadest range ofpatient conditions — including those with severe
arrhythmias.1,3
