WAYNE, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 8, 2015--
Teleflex Incorporated (NYSE: TFX), a leading global provider of medical
devices for critical care, urology and surgery, will showcase its Arrow®
brand interventional radiology portfolio at the 1st Annual Congress of
the European Society for Vascular Medicine (ESVM) to be held in Potsdam,
Germany on May 10 - 12, 2015.
During the event, Teleflex will highlight both the Arrow® GPSCath®
Balloon Dilatation Catheter featuring innovative VisioValve™ technology
over a 0.014 guidewire - now for below-the-knee interventions, and the
Super Arrow-Flex® Sheath Introducer.
The Arrow® GPSCath® Catheter is a specialty two-in-one device that is
indicated for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) in the
peripheral vasculature, including iliac, femoral, popliteal,
infrapopliteal and renal arteries allowing the physician to conduct
angioplasty and inject fluid (targeted angiogram specifically at lesion
site) while maintaining catheter and guidewire position. Below-the-knee
interventions can be complex undertakings, requiring multiple devices,
numerous procedural steps and significant procedural time. The Arrow®
GPSCath® Catheter now offers a solution by combining multiple required
features into one device.
The Super Arrow-Flex® Sheath Introducer gives complete vascular access,
thanks to its wire-reinforced design and construction. From easy
insertion and handling to the highly visible radiopaque tip, the Super
Arrow-Flex® Sheath Introducer is designed to deliver optimal performance
from start to finish. With a wide range of sheath sizes and lengths, the
Super Arrow-Flex® Sheath Introducer gives the physician flexibility of
choice for multiple vascular applications.
