Ryujin Plus rapid exchange balloon catheter 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. This device is designed for crossing routine lesions without compromising trackability.
Advanced Balloon Technology for Accurate Coronary DilatationRyujin Plus utilizes non-compliant balloon technology and medical-grade polymer materials to ensure predictable expansion and precise placement. The hydrophilic coating enables smooth navigation, assisted by dual platinum markers for clear positioning during coronary angioplasty procedures. Suitable for various lesion lengths and complex anatomies, it delivers consistent performance at high burst pressures.
Optimized for Safe and Efficient PTCA ProceduresWith tapered tip and dual lumen shaft, the catheter facilitates excellent pushability and crossability, reducing procedure time and improving patient outcomes. Its compatibility with 0.014 inch guidewires allows use with standard interventional techniques, and sterile packaging ensures safety for single-use applications in hospital or clinic environments.
FAQ's of Terumo Ryujin Plus PTCA Dilatation Catheter (BD 2.75):
Q: How is the Terumo Ryujin Plus PTCA Dilatation Catheter used in PTCA procedures?
A: The Ryujin Plus catheter is manually advanced over a 0.014-inch guidewire to the targeted coronary lesion. Its non-compliant PET balloon is then inflated at nominal pressures to dilate stenotic coronary arteries, providing high accuracy and predictable expansion.
Q: What are the available balloon lengths for the Ryujin Plus BD 2.75 catheter?
A: Balloon lengths available for this model are 8 mm, 12 mm, 15 mm, 20 mm, and 30 mm. Availability may vary based on distribution and regional supply.
Q: When should this PTCA catheter be used?
A: The Ryujin Plus catheter is intended for use during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty procedures performed to treat significant coronary artery stenosis. It is suitable for both elective and emergency interventions.
Q: Where should the Ryujin Plus catheter be stored before use?
A: It should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, within its sterile, single-use blister pack, to maintain cleanliness and integrity for up to its 3-year shelf life.
Q: What benefits does the hydrophilic coating provide?
A: The hydrophilic coating on the shaft ensures smooth catheter delivery and easier navigation through tortuous vessels, reducing the risk of vessel trauma and improving procedural efficiency.
Q: Can the Ryujin Plus catheter be used with all standard angioplasty guidewires?
A: Yes, it is compatible with standard 0.014-inch guidewires commonly used in coronary angioplasty procedures.
Q: Is the Ryujin Plus PTCA Dilatation Catheter a reusable device?
A: No, it is designed for single-use only. Reusing the device is not recommended and may compromise patient safety and procedural effectiveness.
