NuCLEUS™
Percutaneous
Transluminal
Valvuloplasty catheter
(Patent
# 5,352,199)
Catheter
Characteristics
The NuMED NuCLEUS™ PTV catheter is engineered for maximum steering and tracking. The
coaxial shaft design provides enhanced column strength and pushability
combined with a flexible distal tip for optimum steerability. The
innovative single balloon design facilitates positive positioning while
holding the balloon in the correct location prior to and during
inflation.
Radiopaque Marker
Platinum marker bands
facilitate reliable positioning of the balloon and are located at the
'waist' center and beneath the shoulders of the balloon for clear identification
under fluoroscopy.
Maximum Trackability
The distal shaft through
the balloon is highly flexible for exceptional maneuverability. This,
combined with the pushability of the coaxial shaft, provides
outstanding tracking performance.
Micro-Thin
Non-Compliant
Balloon
The NuMED NuCLEUS™
PTV patented design allows for accurate balloon placement.
Initial inflation will hold balloon in the desired position, further
inflation expands the center of the balloon to effect satisfactory
dilatation.
The NuMED NuCLEUS™ PTV balloon is micro-thin for a low deflated profile that
maintains tip flexibility. The exceptionally low profile balloon
requires the smallest introducer possible. Nominal dimensions are
maintained over the entire length of the non-compliant balloon.
