Spectranetics 114-009 ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Cath. 0.057inch x 135cm(x)

Developed by Spectranetics, a leading innovator in cardiovascular technologies, the ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Catheter combines the precision of laser technology with the flexibility of catheter-based intervention, enabling physicians to effectively treat complex lesions and improve patient outcomes with unparalleled accuracy and safety.

Key Features:

1. Laser Atherectomy Technology
At the heart of the ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Catheter is advanced laser atherectomy technology, which allows physicians to precisely target and ablate atherosclerotic plaque within the coronary arteries. The catheter delivers high-energy laser pulses to the site of arterial obstruction, vaporizing and breaking down calcified or fibrous plaque while minimizing damage to healthy surrounding tissue. This targeted approach enables physicians to achieve optimal lesion modification and vessel preparation, paving the way for successful angioplasty and stent placement with reduced risk of complications.

2. Flexible and Navigable Catheter Design
The ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Catheter features a flexible and navigable design that allows for smooth and precise delivery to the target lesion within the coronary arteries. The catheter is constructed from biocompatible materials that provide optimal maneuverability and trackability through tortuous vessels and complex lesions. Its slim profile and hydrophilic coating reduce friction and resistance during catheter advancement, facilitating access to challenging anatomical locations and ensuring optimal procedural success.

3. Multimodal Imaging Compatibility
To enhance procedural guidance and optimize treatment outcomes, the ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Catheter is compatible with various multimodal imaging techniques commonly used in interventional cardiology procedures. Physicians can integrate intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), optical coherence tomography (OCT), or angiography to visualize lesion morphology, assess plaque composition, and guide catheter placement and laser ablation. This multimodal imaging compatibility allows for comprehensive lesion assessment and personalized treatment planning, ensuring precision and accuracy in plaque removal and vessel preparation.

4. Variable Laser Energy Settings
The ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Catheter offers variable laser energy settings that allow physicians to customize treatment parameters based on lesion characteristics and patient-specific factors. Physicians can adjust the laser energy output, pulse duration, and frequency to optimize plaque ablation and vessel preparation while minimizing thermal injury to adjacent tissues. This flexibility enables tailored treatment strategies for different types of lesions, including calcified, fibrous, or eccentric plaques, enhancing procedural efficacy and safety.

5. Real-Time Feedback and Monitoring
During laser atherectomy procedures, real-time feedback and monitoring are essential for ensuring accurate lesion modification and minimizing procedural risks. The ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Catheter provides continuous feedback on laser energy delivery, tissue interaction, and lesion response through integrated monitoring systems. Physicians can monitor key parameters such as tissue vaporization, plaque modification, and luminal gain in real-time, allowing for immediate adjustments and optimization of treatment outcomes while ensuring patient safety and procedural success.

6. Rapid Exchange System for Efficiency
The ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Catheter features a rapid exchange system that enhances procedural efficiency and facilitates seamless catheter exchanges during interventions. The catheter is compatible with standard rapid exchange catheter platforms, allowing for quick and easy exchange of the laser catheter with other interventional devices such as balloon catheters or stent delivery systems. This rapid exchange capability reduces procedural time and complexity, enabling physicians to perform efficient and effective laser atherectomy procedures with minimal patient discomfort and downtime.

7. Comprehensive Training and Support
Spectranetics provides comprehensive training and support programs to ensure that physicians and healthcare professionals have the necessary knowledge and skills to safely and effectively use the ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Catheter. Training programs include didactic education, hands-on workshops, and case-based learning opportunities that cover device operation, procedural techniques, and patient selection criteria. Additionally, Spectranetics offers ongoing clinical support and technical assistance to address any questions or concerns that may arise during catheter use, ensuring optimal patient care and treatment outcomes.

In conclusion, the Spectranetics 114-009 ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Catheter represents a groundbreaking advancement in the treatment of coronary artery disease, offering physicians a precise and effective solution for plaque removal and vessel preparation. With its innovative laser atherectomy technology, flexible catheter design, multimodal imaging compatibility, variable energy settings, real-time feedback and monitoring, rapid exchange system, and comprehensive training and support, the ELCA Coronary Laser Atherectomy Catheter enables physicians to achieve optimal treatment outcomes while ensuring patient safety and procedural success. By providing a minimally invasive alternative to traditional interventions, the ELCA Catheter offers new possibilities for patients with complex coronary lesions, ultimately improving their quality of life and long-term cardiovascular health.
