Introducing PowerWire® Pro RF Guidewire
Cross occluded peripheral stents with radiofrequency puncture technology
PowerWire® Pro RF Guidewire is indicated to create a channel in totally occluded peripheral vessels 3 mm or greater, including vessels with stents.
Cross Occluded Peripheral Stents
Crossing chronic in-stent occlusions is not always possible with conventional techniques
Overcome barriers to venous stent reintervention
up to 20%
May require stent reintervention
Up to 20% of patients will require re-intervention following iliofemoral venous stenting.1 Conventional techniques often fall short in crossing chronic in-stent occlusions.
Successfully cross occluded stents
67-89%
Success rate with the PowerWire® Family of Guidewires
In cases where standard methods have failed, interventionalists have achieved successful recanalization in 67-89% of chronically occluded iliac or iliocaval stents using the PowerWire® family of guidewires.2-4
Create a Path Through Occluded Peripheral Stents
Enable intervention with reliable crossing.
Crossing an occlusion can often be the most difficult and time-consuming step in stent revascularization procedures. The PowerWire® Pro RF Guidewire is designed to reliably cross challenging occlusions because the inability to cross should never stop you from intervening and treating your patients.
CROSS.
Use RF energy to create a channel through complete in-stent occlusions.
INTERVENE.
Exchange length design to support the introduction of interventional devices. 0.035″ outer diameter supports over-the wire devices.
REVASCULARIZE.
Facilitate venous stent recanalization for complete occlusions that are refractory to standard techniques.
Designed to safely cross occluded peripheral stents
Safely cross occlusions using RF Puncture Technology
