Device |
drug-coated peripheral transluminal angioplasty catheter |
Definition |
Balloon dilatation of native and/or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae to establish or maintain patency |
Physical State |
The balloon catheter is generally constructed of synthetic materials such as plastic and introduced into the body using a guidewire. The balloon is generally manufactured in multiple diameters and lengths to allow for treatment of different lesion sizes. There is typically a drug coating on the balloon with assists in maintaining vessel patency. |
Technical Method |
The balloon catheter uses mechanical force across a lesion to establish patency. The drug coating serves as an adjunct to the mechanical action of balloon angioplasty and assists in maintaining vessel patency post-procedure. |
Target Area |
Synthetic and/or native arteriovenous dialysis fistulae. |
