What It Is
The ilt safe cross 0 035 support catheter is a specialized catheter designed to facilitate the placement and support of guidewires during vascular interventions. It features a 0.035-inch lumen that provides stability and support, allowing for precise navigation through the vascular system. This device is particularly useful in complex procedures requiring enhanced control and support.
FDA-Cleared Indications
- Used during percutaneous vascular procedures that require catheter support and guidewire navigation.
- Intended for use in venous interventions, including procedures involving venous stent placement.
- Used with compatible guidewires to help access and treat abnormalities within the vascular system.
Clinical Applications
- Supporting guidewire placement during venous stenting.
- Helping navigate through venous obstructions or difficult vascular anatomy.
- Providing catheter support during percutaneous treatment of central or iliac venous disease.
- Assisting access and device delivery during image-guided venous interventions.
Practical Considerations
- The catheter has a nominal 0.035-inch guidewire-compatible lumen; clinicians should confirm compatibility with the selected guidewire and other devices.
- Available catheter length and configuration should be matched to the access site, target vessel, and patient anatomy.
- Manipulation should be performed under appropriate imaging guidance using standard sterile vascular-access technique to reduce the risk of dissection, perforation, thrombosis, or bleeding.
- MRI safety information is not established in the supplied FDA record. Confirm the current product labeling before exposing the catheter to an MRI environment.
- Use is subject to standard catheter contraindications and precautions, including clinically significant vascular infection, severe bleeding risk, or inability to obtain safe vascular access.
