Invasive blood pressure transducer set (A collection of devices that includes tubing, a pressure transducer(s), and other items [e.g., connectors, stopcock(s), clamps and filters] intended to be used for an invasive blood pressure measurement. This set will typically connect directly to the applied invasive catheter and the transducer will provide the electrical signals for display by a patient monitoring system. This device will have physical characteristics appropriate for preserving, to the extent possible, the waveform and fidelity of the measured pressure. This is a single-use device.)
