The ENVOY DA XB guiding catheter, which is part of the ENVOY DA guiding catheter family, is designed to provide additional proximal support of the catheter when more stability is required and provides access to more distal anatomy.
The guiding catheter includes end-to-end braided construction, a distal 10cm hydrophilic coating, soft distal tip with a recessed metal marker, and Brite Tip technology for enhanced visibility.
Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School Cerebrovascular and Endovascular Neurosurgery Director Dr Gaurav Gupta said: "The Envoy DA guiding catheter with its soft flexible distal segment and .071-inch inner lumen allows for ease of placement into the petrous segment, as well as additional inner lumen, for smooth advancement when using multiple devices such as a balloon and microcatheter.
"In addition, it works very well with intermediate catheters providing excellent stability as you place these devices in distal anatomy."
The 7F Envoy guiding catheter features end-to-end hybrid braid technology, soft distal Brite Tip Technology and is the largest-diameter guiding catheter the company has ever offered.
The new catheters are offered in multiple shape configurations to navigate and treat different anatomy.
Codman Neuro worldwide president Laxmin Laxminarain said: "ENVOY Guiding Catheters have been the leading neurovascular access catheters for more than 20 years," said. "Catheter technology is critical to procedure success.
"We will continue to innovate in this area, as well as in developing new interventional technologies that fill unmet clinical needs or improve procedures."
