Cook Flexor Parallel Rapid Release Ureteral Access Sheath G56429
Flexor Parallel Rapid Release Ureteral Access Sheath G56429 is a low-friction, hydrophilic-coated ureteral sheath designed to provide safe access to the urinary tract during endoscopic urological procedures. It allows a single guidewire to be used as both a working wire and a safety wire, simplifying setup. The sheath establishes a stable working channel for insertion of scopes and instruments while protecting the ureter.
This access sheath facilitates ureteral dilation and secure access by providing a reinforced working channel that remains patent during repeated instrument exchanges. The “Rapid Release” design allows the dilator to be removed while leaving the guidewire alongside the sheath — the wire becomes a safety wire, freeing the sheath’s lumen for instruments or endoscope passage. Its hydrophilic coating reduces friction during insertion and minimizes ureteral trauma. Using just one wire reduces product use and can lower operating-room time, making procedures more efficient and cost-effective.
