Catheter/overtube balloon inflators are single-use devices used to inflate and deflate balloons on catheters, endoscopic overtubes, or similar medical instruments during procedures. They ensure precise pressure control, allowing clinicians to maintain proper positioning or occlusion while minimizing tissue damage.
These devices are typically regulated as single-use medical instruments, often requiring compliance with general safety and performance standards. They may be supplied pre-sterilized and intended for one-time use per patient, with variations in design—manual or electronic—affecting their regulatory classification.
