| Regulation Description |
Percutaneous catheter. |
| Definition |
Catheter is used for Percutaneous Transluminal or balloon Valvuloplasty (PTV) of the pulmonary (pulmonic) valve. Used on patients with isolated pulmonary stenosis and also on patients with valvular pulmonary stenosis with other minor congenital heart disease that does not require surgical intervention. |
| Physical State |
The device is a catheter with a balloon tip. |
| Technical Method |
Catheter contains a ballon at the distal end of the shaft. The catheter is inserted into the body and directed towards the pulmonary valve. Once the catheter is placed in the valve, the balloon is expanded which compresses and/or breaks the material causing stenosis. |
