Catheter Characteristics
The TYSHAK® balloon dilatation catheter is a coaxially constructed catheter with a distally mounted non-compliant balloon. The catheter exhibits an extremely low profile. Due to the coaxial construction, the catheter inflates and deflates extremely fast. The TYSHAK® catheter is available in over 100 configurations with balloon lengths from 1.0 to 10.0 cm and balloon diameter from 2.0 to 25.0 mm.
Micro-Thin Balloon
The TYSHAK® balloon is super thin for a low deflated profile that maintains tip flexibility. The exceptionally low profile balloon requires the smallest introducer possible. Nominal dimensions are maintained over the entire length of the balloon.
Maximum Trackability
The distal shaft through the balloon is highly flexible for exceptional maneuverability. This combined with the pushability of the coaxial shaft provides outstanding tracking performance.
Radiopaque marker
Platinum marker bands facilitate reliable positioning of the balloon.
