PRODUCT
The Flextome Cutting Balloon Device consists of a balloon with 3 or 4 atherotomes
(microsurgical blades) mounted longitudinally on its outer surface. When
the Flextome Cutting Balloon Device is inflated, the atherotomes score the
plaque, creating initiation sites for crack propagation. This process, referred
to as AtherotomyQ3J, allows dilatation of the target lesion with less pressure.
The device is provided in 6 mm, 10 mm, and 15 mm lengths. The working length
is the distance between the radiopaque marker bands. The proximal catheter
shaft of the Flextome Cutting Balloon Device is a hypotube. This hypotube
contains the inflation lumen for the balloon. The distal shaft is made of
flexible material and contains two lumens. One lumen is for balloon inflation,
and the second lumen is a guidewire lumen. The distal shaft is coated with
a hydrophilic coating. The guidewire lumen is colored green for greater visibility.
The guidewire exit port is 24 cm from the catheter tip. This port facilitates
rapid exchanges. A needle with a luer port is included for flushing the wire
lumen prior to the insertion of appropriate coronary guide wires. CLIPIT1M
clips are provided to aid in handling of the catheter. Recall # Z-0409-06

The Peripheral Cutting Balloon Device small Monorail Delivery System features
a balloon with 3 or 4 atherotomes (microsurgical blades) mounted longitudinally
on its outer surface. When the Peripheral Cutting Balloon device is inflated,
the atherotomes score the plaque, creating initiation sites for crack propagation.
Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty(PTA) with the Peripheral Cutting Balloon
