Abstract
A catheter placement system includes a catheter assembly, an external ultrasound probe, a tip location sensor, and a console. The catheter assembly includes a catheter, a magnetic component producing a magnetic field, and an electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor designed to measure an intravascular ECG signal. The external ultrasound probe includes user input controls. The tip location sensor is configured to detect the magnetic field of the magnetic component when the catheter is disposed in the patient, the magnetic field providing magnetic field information for locating the magnetic component relative to the tip location sensor, and to receive the intravascular ECG signal from the ECG sensor. The console is coupled to the tip location sensor and includes a processor and a display. The display is configured to show an image from the external ultrasound probe, a graphical representation of the magnetic component, and successive ECG waveforms detected by the ECG sensor.
