The Sterling SL Balloon Catheter was developed specifically to address physicians’ needs in treating below-the-knee arteries by providing a low tip profile, high deliverability and rapid deflation time. It expands Boston Scientific’s line of low-profile peripheral angioplasty balloon catheters, which includes the Sterling and Sterling ES products.
Kenneth Kollmeyer, chief of vascular surgery at Methodist Dallas Medical Center, said: “The introduction of the Sterling SL Balloon Catheter will provide the length options I need to address below-the-knee procedures for patients with peripheral artery disease. This product offers the same performance I have come to expect from the Sterling family of balloon catheters.”
Joe Fitzgerald, senior vice president and president of Endovascular Unit at Boston Scientific, said: “The Sterling SL Balloon Catheter reflects Boston Scientific’s commitment to providing physicians the most complete set of high-performance peripheral intervention devices.”
