Design Considerations
Clinical and Procedural Value
Distal Flexibility
A flexible distal segment can support navigation through curved, tortuous, or delicate vascular pathways.
Shaft Support
A supportive proximal shaft helps transmit force during advancement while maintaining catheter control.
Lumen Design
The inner lumen is designed to accommodate compatible guide wires and selected devices according to the specification table and IFU.
Tip Configuration
Tip shape may vary by model to support different navigation preferences and anatomical requirements.
Radiopacity
Radiopaque markers or radiopaque tip design help provide visibility under fluoroscopy and support accurate catheter positioning.
Surface Performance
Depending on configuration, the catheter surface may be optimized to support smooth advancement through compatible introducers, guiding catheters, or access catheters.
Precision
The small profile and controlled distal response of the microcatheter support accurate navigation and positioning in complex vascular anatomy.
Access
Microcatheter designs help physicians reach smaller, more distal, or more tortuous vessels where standard catheters may be less suitable.
Support
The shaft construction is developed to balance distal flexibility with proximal support, helping maintain procedural control during advancement and device delivery.
Visibility
Radiopaque features support fluoroscopic visualization, helping the operator confirm catheter tip location during the procedure.
Compatibility
The microcatheter platform is designed to work with selected guide wires, guiding catheters, access catheters, and compatible intravascular devices according to the Instructions for Use.
