Medtronic NC Sprinter RX rapid exchange PTCA balloon dilatation catheter

Description

NC SPRINTER RX NONCOMPLIANT BALLOON DILATATION CATHETER⁵

Medtronic NC sprinter balloon: NC Sprinter^® RX Noncompliant Rapid Exchange Balloon Dilatation Catheter combines tried and true Sprinter technology with the high-pressure capability and controlled expansion of a noncompliant balloon.

HOW THE NC SPRINTER RX WORKS? 

Stent implantation often follows balloon angioplasty. Once the stent is implanted, post stent deployment as assessed by IVUS or fluoroscopy may be completed to ensure adequate stent expansion and apposition against the arterial wall.¹
