Cook Medical launches Advance® 18LP Balloon Dilatation Catheter in North America

Cook Medical has launched its  Advance® 18LP Balloon Dilatation Catheter in North America. Designed to provide improved deliverability to doctors, Advance 18LP has small sheath compatibility and a low crossing profile. The .018″ wireguide PTA balloon can be used in patients having lesions of the peripheral arteries as well as obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arterio-venous dialysis fistulae. It uses advanced thermal setting of the balloon folds for better rewrap and sheath pull-back. Lower deflation time is its another benefit.
