Established in Australia, Atrium offers health care solutions and medical products for different fields such as interventional cardiology, biosurgery, vascular and thoracic drainage.
ClearWay RX infusion catheters supplied by Atrium are advanced atraumatic delivery methods, which help to increase the amount of drug infused. A thin, microporous PTFE balloon that occludes blood by controlling the vessel wall is used to infuse the drug. By the process of OCI therapeutics, high concentration can be attained through infusion balloon’s properties such as occlusion, containment and selective local infusion. Delivery of drugs through these catheters increases the concentration by up to 500 times. Required amount of drug is only infused at targeted areas for Atrium’s therapeutic effect.
Controllable amount of drug is infused across the whole area using these cardiology products, where treatment is required in the inflation stage. This increases drug bioavailability, concentration and residence time for undergoing therapeutic process. Difficult targets can be reached by these exchange perfusion catheters that are compatible with 0.014 inch guidewire. These catheters are available with different balloon lengths and diameters to suit the different treatment procedures.
