Cobalt Chromium Implant System - Stent surface with Glycocalyx Bio-Coating
The molecule
Glycocalyx coated Stent
BMS Stent not coated
Benefits and advantages of the stent
Struts: Extremely thin just 65μm for an optimal flexibility and vessel adaption
Surface: Smooth hemodynamic with perfectly rounded edges to reduce vessel wall reaction. This is achieved by a specific electropolishing process
Design: Open cell structure - optimized for each vessel diameter - enables an easy side branch access and leads to a perfect flexibility in tortuous vessel anatomy The 9 crown design leads to an optimal lumen coverage and vessel wall adaption
The Glycocalyx Bio-coating
Permanent, antithrombogenic
Full biocompatible
Promotes the healing process
Promotes endothealization
Guaranteed long term stability
The delivery system
Hydrophilic coated distal shaft 1.9F shaft with a rapid deflation balloon
The balloon design optimizes a controlled linear expansion
A balloon overhang of <5 mm minimises vessel injury outside the stent
