Description
The TrackerTM ExcelTM-14 Pre-Shaped Microcatheter is a single lumen device designed to aid the physician in accessing the distal vasculature when used with a guiding catheter and steerable guidewire. Graded shaft stiffness ranging from a highly flexible tip to a semi-rigid proximal section aids the physician in tracking over selectively placed guidewires. A luer fitting located on the catheter hub is used for the attachment of accessories. A radiopaque tip facilitates fluoroscopic visualization. The outer diameter is coated with a hydrophilic surface that reduces friction during manipulation in the vessel. The catheter is packaged individually with a variety of pre-shaped tips.
