Cardiovascular diseases, particularly coronary artery disease (CAD), remain the leading cause of mortality globally. The narrowing or blockage of coronary arteries impedes blood flow to the myocardium, often resulting in angina pectoris or myocardial infarction. PTCA Balloon catheters have become in

Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA) has revolutionized the field of interventional cardiology by providing a minimally invasive method to address coronary artery disease. Central to this procedure is the PTCA Balloon catheter, a specialized device designed to dilate narrowed or obs

一Stent DesignThe biodegradable coating (PLGA polymer combined with sirolimus crystals) was realized based on supercritical fluid technology, which gave birth to the Mistent® coronary drug-eluting stent. It has two distinctive features: "Quick Healing" and "Long-lasting Drug Efficacy". The biodegrad

The use of a balloon catheter in urinary catheterization is a critical aspect of modern medical care. It plays a vital role in managing urinary retention, monitoring urine output, and facilitating bladder irrigation. Understanding how to urinate with a balloon catheter is essential for both patients

Balloon catheters have revolutionized the field of interventional medicine, providing minimally invasive solutions for a variety of vascular conditions. These devices are essential tools in procedures like angioplasty, where they help restore proper blood flow by dilating narrowed or blocked vessels

Balloon catheters have revolutionized the field of interventional medicine by providing minimally invasive solutions for a variety of vascular and non-vascular conditions. These devices play a critical role in procedures ranging from angioplasty to the deployment of stents, enabling physicians to tr
