Scoreflex NC
Coronary Dilatation Catheter
Focused Force Angioplasty for
Non-Compliant Lesion Preparation
Focused Force Angioplasty for Safe and Controlled Dilatation
Scoreflex NC is a focused force dilatation balloon with a dual-wire system which creates a focal stress pattern to facilitate safe and controlled plaque modification at lower resolution pressure.
Advance a standard guidewire across the target lesion. | Advance Scoreflex over the guidewire and cross the target lesion.
| Inflate the Scoreflex balloon in a stepwise fashion. | Withdraw the deflated Scoreflex once the desired result is achieved. |
Scoreflex Construction
TIP
A short rapid exchange tip with the guidewire exit port proximal to the tip
WIRE
A nitinol integral wire, welded from tip to hypotube, serving as one of the scoring elements
MARKERS
Two radiopaque markers on the integral wire aligned to the balloon shoulders
The (conventional) guidewire exits proximal to the tip and acts as the second scoring element
Catheter for excellent deliverability
Continuous hub-to-tip metallic construction for enhanced pushability, with a
combination of hydrophilic and hydrophobic coatings to minimize friction
Hydro-X hydrophilic coating is a water-absorbing, very slippery coating that reduces friction during lesion crossing
IMPROVES CROSSABILITY
Invio hydrophobic coating is a water-repelling, slippery coating that reduces guidewire friction
IMPROVES TRACKABILITY
Crossing profile
Scoreflex NC has a very low crossing profile in its product class
Low Dilatation Pressure, Big Dilatation Effect
Scoreflex is a focused force dilatation balloon that comes with a dual wire system which enables effective dilatation under lower inflation pressure. For optimal results, a gradual step-up inflation protocol should be adopted
Applications
- Lesion preparation for stents, scaffolds, drug-coated balloons
- Calcified and fibrotic lesions
- Ostial lesions
- Bifurcation lesions
- Long diffused lesions
- Small lesions without need of stenting
