Dilatation catheter Tadpole™

coronaryballoonatraumatic tip

Product Description
Designed to cross coronary lesions and deliver controlled balloon dilatation for percutaneous coronary interventions.

Product Features

• 0.017" soft tapered tip
• Short, round shoulder design for lesion access
• 2 swaged Platinum markers for radiopaque positioning
• Hydrosurf® coating on the distal shaft for improved trackability
• PTFE-coated hypotube proximal shaft for pushability
• 3-directional memory-folds balloon for compact profile
• High re-folding capability
• Excellent withdrawal performance
• Capable of kissing balloon technique under a 6F guiding catheter

Product Benefits

• Supports successful delivery in complex coronary anatomies
• Improves myocardial perfusion in stenotic coronary segments or bypass grafts
• Enables post-delivery expansion of balloon-expandable stents to achieve final residual diameter stenosis < 50%
• Contributes to reducing restenosis rates

Product Ranges

• Ø 1.5 - 4.0 mm
• Balloon lengths: multiple options from 8 to 30 mm
