CTO balloon dilatation catheter has been used in the dilative treatment of many diseases with good bending performance and smooth top design. High-quality CTO balloon dilatation catheter is made of nylon with good plasticity. The balloon can smoothly enter the semi or complete occluded lesion position through the forceps hole.

What are the features of CTO balloon dilatation catheter?

The diameter of the tip entrance of CTO balloon dilatation catheter can reach 0.016 inches.

The minimum balloon profile of CTO balloon dilatation catheter can reach 0.024 inches.

The design of single marker band effectively increases the pass ability of CTO balloon dilatation catheter.

Spiral cutting design of hypotube effectively enhances the pushing ability of the CTO balloon dilatation catheter.

CTO balloon dilatation catheter passes φ 2.8mm clamp passage hole easily, which can be expanded under the direct vision of endoscope with safety and convenience.

The sign with good radiographic development ensures accurate positioning.

Three wing folding technology is adopted to maintain a small diameter before expansion and easily pass through the narrow section.

CTO balloon dilatation catheter can be divided into through guide wire and non through guide wire that the diameter of guide wire is 0.035 inch.

It is made of high-tech materials, which is safe and reliable.

What are the parts of CTO balloon dilatation catheter?

The size and performance parameters of the tip of the CTO balloon dilatation catheter can be directly related to ability to pass through the occluded lesion. If the tip is conical, the tracking ability of the catheter is enhanced because the diameter of the balloon tip is reduced. CTO balloon dilatation catheter with short hard head is suitable for the treatment of severe stenosis, while one with long soft head is more suitable for the treatment of tortuous lesions.

The material of the balloon has a great influence on the compliance of the CTO balloon dilatation catheter. The balloon compliance of PET material is small, while that of POC is large. At present, the common semi compliant balloon is made of nylon material. The retraction performance of CTO balloon dilatation catheter refers to the recovery ability after balloon dilatation and retraction, which can be used as one of the indexes to evaluate the passage of balloon through lesions.

The CTO balloon dilatation catheter push rod materials are divided into polymer materials and metal materials. The balloon push rod made of polymer material will reduce the friction during pushing that the push rod made of metal material can have better pushing performance.

What should be noticed when using CTO balloon dilatation catheter?

CTO balloon dilatation catheter is for one-time use only. Do not disinfect or reuse because this will damage the performance and increase the risk of cross contamination. Use only the recommended balloon inflation medium. Do not inflate the balloon with air or any gaseous medium.

The pressure of CTO balloon dilatation catheter shall not exceed the rated burst pressure, which is based on in vitro test results. Most balloons will not burst at or below their RBP. Pressure monitoring devices are recommended to prevent overpressure.

In order to reduce the possibility of vascular injury, the diameter of balloon inflation should be close to the diameter of the proximal and distal vessels of the stenosis. When the CTO balloon dilatation catheter is exposed to the vascular system, it should be operated under high-quality fluoroscopy. Do not push or retract the catheter unless the balloon is completely deflated under vacuum. Determine the cause of the resistance before continuing. If the shaft is bent or twisted, do not straighten the CTO balloon dilatation catheter to break. Instead, prepare a new catheter. Do not tighten the catheter more than one complete turn.

In case of damage of CTO balloon dilatation catheter, any part of the recovery should be carried out according to the doctor's determination of the individual patient's condition and the appropriate retrieval scheme.
