Excelsior XT-17 Microcatheter - Intravascular microflow catheter

Intended purpose

Intended to assist in the delivery of diagnostic agents, such as contrast media, and therapeutic agents, such as occlusion coils, into the peripheral, coronary and neuro vasculature.

Functional description

Excelsior XT-17 Microcatheters are single lumen devices designed to aid the physician in accessing distal vasculature when used with a guide 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 microcatheter hub is used for the attachment of accessories. A radiopaque tip facilitates fluoroscopic visualization.
