This device is a Coronary Dilatation Balloon Catheter, designed for transluminal coronary angioplasty. It is used to dilate stenotic segments of coronary arteries or bypass grafts to restore blood flow and improve myocardial perfusion in patients with coronary ischemia or acute myocardial infarction.
The catheters are supplied as single-use medical devices and are regulated under FDA 510(k) clearance (K230374) and the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR). They are classified as Class II devices and are intended for use in interventional cardiology procedures. No MRI safety or reusable specifications are noted in the data.
Frequently asked questions
What are the primary clinical uses for the VesPenetrator®, VesTraveler®, and VexPander® Coronary Dilatation Balloon Catheters?
These catheters are designed specifically for transluminal coronary angioplasty, a procedure used to widen narrowed or blocked coronary arteries. They help restore blood flow and improve myocardial perfusion in patients suffering from coronary ischemia or acute myocardial infarction by dilating stenotic segments of coronary arteries or bypass grafts.
Are these catheters single-use or reusable, and how should they be handled after use?
The VesPenetrator®, VesTraveler®, and VexPander® Coronary Dilatation Balloon Catheters are explicitly supplied as single-use medical devices. After use, they should be discarded according to standard medical waste protocols to ensure patient safety and prevent cross-contamination.
What regulatory pathways have these devices undergone, and where are they manufactured?
These catheters have been cleared under the FDA’s 510(k) pathway (K230374) and comply with the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR). They are classified as Class II devices and are intended for interventional cardiology procedures. The manufacturer, Dongguan TT Medical, Inc., is based in Dongguan, Guangdong, China.
Do these catheters come in multiple sizes or models, and if so, how would one determine the appropriate size for a procedure?
While the provided data does not specify exact sizes or models, the device family includes multiple variants (VesPenetrator®, VesTraveler®, and VexPander®), suggesting a range of options tailored for different clinical scenarios. Selection of the appropriate size would depend on the specific anatomical requirements of the patient’s coronary arteries or bypass grafts, typically determined by the interventional cardiologist based on pre-procedure imaging and measurements.
