Description
The Rist™ 071 Radial Access Guide Catheter is a single lumen, variable stiffness catheter with a stainless steel and nitinol reinforced shaft to provide support. The embedded stainless-steel flat wire cross coil is in the proximal section of the catheter, which transitions to a nitinol round wire single coil in the distal end. The catheter has a radiopaque platinum/iridium marker band on the distal end to aid in visualization. The distal 25 cm of the Rist™ 071 Radial Access Guide Catheter has a hydrophilic coating which reduces the insertion force and allows the catheter to traverse the vasculature more easily. The catheter has a nominal outer diameter of 0.084 inches and a nominal inner diameter of 0.071 inches. It is available in three working lengths: 95 cm, 100 cm, and 105 cm. The Rist™ 071 Radial Access Guide Catheter has a PTFE-lined lumen to reduce friction with other devices introduced through the lumen. It is intended to provide access to the target site via transradial access and, once in place, provides a reinforcing conduit for other intravascular devices. A radial access dilator is included as an accessory. The Rist™ 071 Radial Access Guide Catheter is supplied sterile, non-pyrogenic, and intended for single use only.
