摘要：
A system and method of identifying and communicating with an interventional medical device is provided. The system includes a novel catheter handle operably coupled to the shaft of a catheter at the distal end and an electrophysiology recording system at the proximal end. The catheter handle includes a visual identification system visible through a lens on the catheter handles and a microcontroller with a memory structure, the memory structure including catheter identification information. The visual identification system includes a light emitting diode, which is visible from the outside of the catheter handle through the lens. When a user of the EP recording system selects a desired color for the coupled catheter, the desired color is communicated to the microcontroller in the catheter handle and the microcontroller causes the visual identification to display the requested color so that the desired color is visible by the user.
