Runthrough NS represents your PTCA guidewire family to cross any workhorse or challenging case. Runthrough NS guidewire family is intended for use in interventional cardiology procedures.
DualCoat Technology for Optimal PerformanceThe innovative DualCoat system combines a hydrophilic tip with a hydrophobic proximal segment, facilitating seamless advancement through complex lesions and ensuring excellent handling for clinicians. This dual-layer approach minimizes friction where needed, while enhancing control and device stability.
Enhanced Visibility & PrecisionFeaturing advanced radiopacity at the distal segment, the Terumo Runthrough NS Intermediate offers superior visualization during procedures. Its tapered, soft, and shapeable tip allows for precise navigation and reliable crossing of difficult coronary blockages, supporting real-time operation.
Ergonomic, Reliable, and SafeConstructed from premium nitinol and stainless steel, the guide wire is lightweight, kink resistant, and designed for single use. Sterile EO gas packaging and a shelf life of up to three years ensure safety and reliability, while compatibility with 5F-6F guides grants procedural flexibility.
FAQ's of Terumo Runthrough NS Intermediate:
Q: How does the DualCoat technology benefit interventional procedures?
A: The DualCoat technology combines a hydrophilic tip for reduced friction and smoother navigation through lesions with a hydrophobic proximal segment that enhances handling and torque control, optimizing performance during complex cardiovascular procedures.
Q: What is the recommended process to use the Terumo Runthrough NS Intermediate guide wire?
A: The guide wire should be introduced manually into the vascular system using compatible 5F-6F guides. Its tapered, soft, shapeable tip allows precise navigation through challenging coronary lesions, supporting real-time adjustments by the operator for effective lesion crossing.
Q: When should this guide wire be used during a cardiovascular intervention?
A: It is ideal for scenarios where rapid, precise crossing of complex coronary lesions is required, especially when enhanced steerability, radiopacity, and kink resistance are critical to successful outcomes.
Q: Where can the Terumo Runthrough NS Intermediate guide wire be utilized?
A: This guide wire is intended for use in medical facilities such as hospitals, cardiovascular centers, and interventional cardiology clinics in India and worldwide, wherever complex coronary interventions are performed.
Q: What are the usage instructions for the guide wire?
A: Use the guide wire as a single-use device; ensure it remains sterile by opening the individual packaging only when ready for immediate use. Do not reuse or resterilize. Store unused wires in a dry, cool place away from sunlight.
Q: What are the main benefits of its tapered, soft, shapeable tip?
A: The tapered, soft, and shapeable tip ensures smooth navigation through tortuous vessels and challenging lesions, while minimizing trauma to the vessel wall and improving patient safety during intricate interventions.
Q: What is the shelf life and storage recommendation for this guide wire?
A: The Terumo Runthrough NS Intermediate guide wire maintains sterility and efficacy for up to three years. For optimal preservation, store in its original packaging in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight.
