Ryujin Plus OTW is intended for use during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) for the purpose of improving myocardial blood flow in the localized stenotic lesion of the coronary arteries. Ryujin Plus OTW is a PTCA balloon dilatation catheter with a coaxial system utilizing innovative Ryujin technologies. Long shaft model (usable catheter length: 148 cm) makes it possible to reach very distal lesions.
Precision and Performance in PCI ProceduresRyujin Plus BL 20 delivers outstanding accuracy during percutaneous coronary intervention due to its tapered tip and precise balloon sizing. Radiopaque marker bands allow seamless visualization under fluoroscopy, facilitating effective balloon positioning in coronary arteries. The catheter's advanced over-the-wire technology ensures optimal maneuverability and reliability even in complex anatomy, allowing interventional cardiologists to achieve favorable patient outcomes.
Safety and Compliance You Can TrustThis PTCA dilatation catheter is latex-free and sterilized using ethylene oxide, ensuring minimal risk for patients. Ryujin Plus BL 20 meets stringent global healthcare standards, boasting CE marking and FDA approval. Its single-use sterile packaging maintains product integrity, and a three-year shelf life supports reliable supply and storage for medical facilities and distributors.
FAQ's of Terumo Ryujin Plus OTW PTCA Dilatation Catheter (BL 20):
Q: How is the Terumo Ryujin Plus BL 20 OTW PTCA Dilatation Catheter used in clinical practice?
A: This catheter is employed during coronary angioplasty procedures, enabling the controlled inflation of the balloon to dilate narrowed sections of the coronary arteries. It is inserted over a 0.014" guidewire, allowing precise placement and reliable performance.
Q: What balloon sizes and lengths are available with the BL 20 model, and how do they benefit different cases?
A: The Ryujin Plus BL 20 offers a 2.0 mm balloon diameter, with balloon lengths of 10 mm and 15 mm. These options provide flexibility for treating different lesion lengths and vessel sizes, ensuring tailored intervention for varied patient needs.
Q: When should clinicians choose the Ryujin Plus BL 20 catheter for PCI procedures?
A: This catheter is indicated for adult patients requiring percutaneous coronary intervention, especially when accurate balloon placement and high crossability are needed in challenging coronary anatomies.
Q: Where is the Terumo Ryujin Plus BL 20 PTCA Dilatation Catheter manufactured and distributed?
A: Produced by Terumo and available in India through authorized dealers, distributors, exporters, and wholesalers, the Ryujin Plus BL 20 can be sourced for medical facilities nationwide.
Q: What processes ensure the safety and sterility of this PTCA catheter?
A: The device is ethylene oxide sterilized, latex-free, and packaged in a sterile, single-use pouch to eliminate contamination risks and support safe patient care.
Q: How does the catheter's advanced tip profile and marker bands improve procedural outcomes?
A: Its low, tapered tip enhances crossability and vessel entry, while platinum-iridium marker bands provide radiopacity, ensuring clear fluoroscopic visibility and precise balloon deployment.
Q: What are the benefits of using an over-the-wire (OTW) PTCA catheter like Ryujin Plus BL 20?
A: The OTW platform allows for optimal guidewire management, improved pushability, and flexible balloon sizing, resulting in better handling and success rates in complex coronary interventions.
