The role of the first-pass occlusive segment balloon in chronic occlusive lesions is mainly to assist the guidewire to pass through and expand the lesion. In recent years, with the development of reverse guidewire technology and transintimal re-entry into the true lumen technology, some small balloons and special-purpose balloons, such as 1.0mm (Bomay Medical), 1.2mm(Mini Trek, Emerge), 1.25 balloon (Tazuna), etc., are suitable for passing through collateral vessels and are not easy to cause perforation during subintimal expansion.
The following describes the commonly used 1.0mm balloon for the first pass through the CTO occlusion segment.
The Artimes coronary balloon catheter produced by our company has reached the international advanced level. After being used and evaluated by many clinical trial centers, Artimes balloon catheter, especially its 1.0mm diameter balloon, has excellent intraoperative performance during CTO intervention.
