For use in arterial and venous procedures requiring percutaneous introduction of intravascular devices, the AVANTI + Introducer is the pioneer of catheter sheath introducer technology. Featuring a patented SLIX Valve, the AVANTI + Introducer provides smooth transitions, monitoring capabilities and exceptional performance for your procedural success, as well as:
Intended for percutaneous entry and guidance of catheters, the EMERALD Diagnostic Guidewire complements our diagnostic catheter and catheter sheath introducer lines. Performance, endurance and safety are built into each EMERALD Guidewire with solid tensile strength to minimize the likelihood of stretching or fracturing.
Product highlights:
The INFINITI 4F, 5F, and 6F line of diagnostic catheters is ideal for coronary angioplasty. These catheters incorporate proprietary Vestan Nylon to deliver exceptional responsiveness and flow rates, optimal torque, and shape retention.
Large Inner Lumen: thin-wall technology allows for larger inner lumen diameter, thus facilitating easy injections and higher flow rates.
Radiopaque tip: helps reduce the risk of vascular damage upon entering tortuous or fragile vessels.

Interventional Products
CYPHER Sirolimus-eluting Coronary StentThe CYPHER Sirolimus-eluting Coronary Stent is an interventional therapy that has been shown to dramatically improve clinical outcomes. Since the arrival of stents in 1995, in-stent restenosis (a reblockage within the stent) has proven to be the major limitation of interventional cardiology, occurring in approximately 10-40% of patients*. CYPHER Stents are specifically designed to reduce in-stent restenosis.
CYPHER Stents are small, spring-like metal stents coated with the drug sirolimus. The drug-eluting stents also include a polymer coating that controls the timed release of the drug inside the vessel.
Since its launch, more than 3,000,000 patients have been treated worldwide with CYPHER Stents. For more information please visit CypherStent.com
FIRE STAR PTCA Dilatation CathetersThe FIRE STAR Dilatation Catheter is designed to provide crossability with accuracy for balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of a coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion.
The DURA STAR Dilatation Catheter is a high-pressure balloon catheter system providing accuracy with crossability.
The DURA STAR Catheter is used for balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of a coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion. It also is indicated for post-delivery expansion of balloon-expandable stents.
The DURA STAR Catheter offers:
Note: Bench-top testing was performed with the DURA STAR Rx PTCA Dilatation Catheter along with marketed Cordis balloon-expandable stents. Caution should be taken when using this device with stents of other manufacturers, due to stent design differences.
