Compatibility and Applications:
The Carefusion 2021197-003 cable is fully compatible with select Edwards Lifesciences pressure monitoring systems and Carefusion patient monitoring platforms. It supports hemodynamic data acquisition and waveform analysis by linking Edwards transducers to clinical monitors used in:
Intensive Care Units (ICUs)
Cardiac Catheterization Labs
Operating Rooms
Step-down telemetry units
Emergency and trauma departments
This cable is particularly useful for arterial pressure, central venous pressure (CVP), pulmonary artery pressure (PAP), and other invasive pressure monitoring setups requiring dual-input support.
Usage Guidelines:
To use the Carefusion 2021197-003 interface cable:
Connect the cable to the designated dual-input port on the monitoring system.
Attach the other end(s) to compatible Edwards pressure transducers or modules.
Ensure all connections are fully seated and locked to maintain continuous data transmission.
Avoid excessive pulling or bending during use to preserve internal wire integrity.
When not in use, disconnect and store the cable properly to avoid mechanical stress or contamination. For more detailed setup guidance, consult the Carefusion or Edwards system user manual.
