Product Information
Access - Low profile 10Fr TTS/OTW delivery catheter provides support and control of system access and manipulation
1Placement - Stent visibility and delivery system are engineered to support confidence and control during the procedure
- Radiopaque markers and clear transition zone for positioning and placement accuracy1
- Recapturing and repositioning of the stent is possible up to approximately 70% deployment1
System - According to physicians in a European multi-center limited launch, the delivery system and tapered tip support superior access, system trackability and stent deployment, even under highly tortuous anatomies (as compared to competitive products)1
Stent - Specific mesh design provides excellent stent adaptation to the anatomy, while maintaining lumen integrity1
- Dedicated flared design offered in a variety of stent diameters and lengths accommodates anatomical needs5
- Large diameter stent designs are generally associated with improved obstruction relief and reduced risk of migration2,3,4,5
Nitinol Construction:
- Complete mesh visibility under fluoroscopy1
- Patented design with flexibility and radial force to support luminal patency1
