Since 1996 our electrophysiological diagnostic catheters and ablation catheters have been submitted to a certified (DIN EN ISO 13485) reprocessing company (Remed GmbH®, a member of the VANGUARD group). Each step of reprocessing that the catheters have to pass is certified according to the existing international regulations (standards, guidelines, etc.), which is required by law in Germany1,2 and… View more
