During percutaneous cardiovascular intervention, temporary cardiac stimulation may be required. Usually this stimulation is generated via a temporary pacing catheter. In order to reduce the complexity of the procedure, a new stimulation strategy has been developed: the "Direct Wire Pacing technique".In this approach, the cardiac stimulation is provided via the guidewire connected to an external pacemaker. Previous study demonstrated the superiority of the new technique compared to the former. However this technique is likely to generate electrical pain, risk of bleeding for the patient and risk of blood exposure accident for the operators. This is why the medical device ELECTRODUCER SLEEVE has been developed. This device integrates a pacing function to the introducer and the guidewire used. The "Direct Wire Pacing technique" is simplified, secured and more reproducible.
