Microcatheters

Microcatheters are revolutionizing coronary, neurovascular, and peripheral interventions by enabling precise treatment of complex vascular conditions. These small, flexible devices go beyond supporting guidewire navigation—they deliver drugs, embolic materials, and implantable devices with unmatched accuracy. As interventional technologies advance, microcatheters have become essential for tackling challenging lesions and improving patient outcomes.

Key Clinical Applications of Microcatheters

Microcatheters are versatile tools used across various medical procedures:

· Coronary Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO): Facilitates guidewire crossing in blocked coronary arteries.

· Neurovascular Interventions: Supports embolization for aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs).

· Peripheral Vascular Disease: Provides access to stenotic lesions in peripheral arteries.

· Complex Vascular Lesions: Enables guidewire advancement, contrast injection, and targeted drug delivery.

Essential Features of High-Performance Microcatheters

To navigate diverse vascular environments and meet procedural demands, microcatheters must offer:

· Superior Flexibility: Ensures smooth navigation through tortuous blood vessels.

· Excellent Trackability: Allows precise distal tip control for complex lesions.

· Robust Guidewire Support: Enhances stability during guidewire delivery.

· High Lumen Lubricity: Reduces friction for seamless device passage.

· Multi-Segment Design: Combines flexibility and strength for optimal performance.
