Intended purpose

PTCA catheter, paclitaxel coated balloon catheter for percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.

Functional description

SeQuent Please NEO is a drug-coated rapid exchange balloon catheter for percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). It involves the combination of mechanical widening of narrowed coronary arteries with the option of a pharmacologically supported prolongation of patency. The expansion of the balloon causes a surface contact of the coated balloon with those vessel segments which should be treated. This process allows the transfer of the drug into the vessel wall.
