• Description :
• The Apollo Balloon Dilatation Catheter is designed to allow easy exchange of the catheter using a standard length guidewire. Balloon diameters range from 2.0mm to 5.0mm. The balloon material is made of a minimally compliant material with a rated burst pressure of 22 atmospheres for 2.0-4.0mm and 20 atmospheres for 4.5-5.0mm balloon respectively. The minimally compliant balloon material will allow high pressure dilatation while maintaining precise control of the balloon diameter and length. The proximal shaft of the catheter is composed of a female luer connector bonded to a PTFE coated stainless steel tube. The proximal shaft allows superior proximal pushability with a smooth transition to a distal shaft composed of an outer tube of nylon and a tri-extrusion inner tube with a balloon laser welded to both tubes at the distal tip. Two radiopaque tungsten plastic marker bands are positioned within the balloon shoulders. The inner tube accepts a standard 0.014 inch PTCA guidewire. The guidewire enters the catheter tip and advances coaxially out the distal Rx port, thereby allowing both coaxial guidance and rapid exchange of catheter with a single standard length guidewire. Two marked sections, 5mm in length located on the proximal shaft, indicate catheter position relative to the tip of either a brachial or femoral guiding catheter.
