Atrioseptostomy Catheters
Micro-Thin Balloons
These catheters, engineered for maximum steering and
tracking, have micro-thin balloons which do not distort
during pullback, allowing the balloon size to be smaller
than competitive catheters

• Catheter is engineered for maximum steering and tracking
• Dual lumen shaft design provides pushability coupled with exceptional pull strength
• Catheter end hole can be utilized for a guidewire, contrast injection or blood analysis
• The balloon is micro-thin for a low deflated profile that maintains tip flexibility;
this exceptionally low profile requires a small introducer sheath
• Material is the same as that used in Tyshak™ and Z-Med™ balloon catheters
• The reduced balloon size is ideal for septostomy in the neonate with a small left atrium
• The shape of the spherical balloon does not deform during pullback, allowing the balloon size to be
smaller than competitive catheters
• Catheter tip is angled at 35 degrees to facilitate passage into the left atrium
Indications for Use - Recommended for balloon atrioseptostomy,
an accepted technique in most pediatric cardiology centers for the
palliation of several congenital cardiac defect.
Refer to The Atrioseptostomy Instructions for Use for relevant
warnings, precautions, complications and contraindications.
