Atherectomy catheter PHOENIX

peripheral

The Phoenix atherectomy system combines the benefits of existing atherectomy systems to deliver a unique atherectomy option to help physicians tailor the treatment approach for each patient.¹ It cuts, captures, and clears diseased tissue with one insertion. Phoenix treats a broad range of tissue types, from soft plaque to calcified arteries, and can be used for lesions above and below the knee. Front cutter Front cutter clears tissue in a way that may help reduce potential trauma to the vessel. Capture and clearance Continuous capture and passive clearance of debulked material into the catheter resulted in a <1% rate of symptomatic distal emboli in the EASE trial. Ease of use Phoenix is battery-powered and handle-operated. No capital equipment or additional procedural accessories are required. Deliverability Low-profile, front-cutting design allows for direct lesion access without having to first pass a nosecone. The over-the-wire design aids in trackability and pushability of catheter. Versatility Offering of 3 catheter diameters has been shown to effectively treat most peripheral vasculature.⁴ • 1.8 and 2.2mm tracking catheters are suited for treating small vessels or highly stenosed lesions. • 2.2 deflected catheter suited for more lumen gain in above and below the knee lesions.* • 2.4mm (deflecting) catheter is suited for larger vessels or eccentric lesions.
